In a series of disturbing events in New York City, authorities are currently pursuing leads in two separate cases involving reckless and violent behavior. In the first case, Christian Valdez, accused of pushing a woman onto subway tracks in Lower Manhattan, was reportedly in custody twice before the attack, including a day prior when he removed an ankle monitor. This incident has reignited discussions about the city's handling of repeat offenders, especially since Valdez should have been incarcerated for a 2017 stabbing incident involving his mother and daughter, according to the victim who now suffers from PTSD. Critics argue this reflects massive system failures, suggesting Valdez either be sent back to Peru or locked up for life. In a separate incident on Staten Island, police are searching for a BMW driver responsible for a fatal crash. The driver allegedly removed the vehicle's license plates and fled the scene, leaving a passenger to die. This crash has been described as a devastating event by local residents, and the driver is now charged with manslaughter for a 2019 chain-reaction crash on the Bronx expressway that resulted in the deaths of a young correction officer and a Good Samaritan.
