Uzbek immigrant Sayfullo Saipov appeared in the New York federal courthouse Wednesday handcuffed and with his feet shackled.
His lawyers said Wednesday they were not seeking bail. He did not enter a plea to terrorism charges. A judge set his next court date for Nov. 15.
Federal prosecutors say the man was “consumed by hate and a twisted ideology” when he attacked people on the bike path on Tuesday.
He is charged with providing material support to the Islamic State terrorist group and violence and destruction of motor vehicles.
Prosecutors say he was stopped by a “brave” police officer, who shot and wounded him Tuesday. They say he had been planning the attack for months.
For all we know, these twisted liberal Deblasio judges will set him free.
why was he not charged with MURDERING EIGHT INNOCENT PEOPLE and given the DEATH PENALTY.
I am so pleased that this guy is in court.
Time to change the system . In mass murders or terrorists when it’s in the open and no secret who commuter the crime it should go before a judge and have him simply sign off and then that day kill him . Don’t even waste one night of my tax payer dollars to imprision this mad man .
And yes it’s true I have a special hatred for Muslims , the same should apply to that nut and who shot innocent African Americans at a holy worship place in SC . Just kill him . Why do these court cases .
We have a stupid government
Using all taxpayers money,You probably DID give him anesthesia while doing surgery,Why couldn’t you keep him awake while doing surgery,and keep singing alah praises that he said while shooting.
