 [NYPOST] Accused bike path terrorist Sayfullo Saipov
| ...the Uzbeck lone wolf who rented a truck for the purpose of running over as many people as possible, though he only managed to kill eight for ISIS. He came to the U.S. under President George HW Bush’s Diversity Immigrant Visa program in 2010, one of millions of Uzbeks to take advantage of the offer... |
threatened to decapitate a federal corrections officer for repeatedly waking him while he’s locked up at the Metropolitan Correctional Center,
| ...what a crabby little Hero of Islam he is, to be sure... |
a new court filing detailing a trove of the government’s evidence against him alleges.
Saipov, who’s accused of killing eight people during his 2017 Halloween terror attack on the West Side Highway, allegedly threatened the officer on Dec. 17 last year for repeatedly slamming a door at night, making it hard for the ISIS follower to sleep, the filing states.
"During the course of this confrontation, the defendant threatened to kill the Officer. Indeed, as the defendant later admitted to the MCC’s disciplinary committee (the ’Committee’), he told the Officer that if the Officer dared to open the defendant’s cell, in two minutes ’other guys will be picking up your dead body,’" the filing states.
The next day, still angry from the prior incident, Saipov obstructed a security camera in his cell and said he wouldn’t remove it until "the Officer’s head was cut off" and then referred to the officer "as an animal," according to the filing.
"Again, the defendant unapologetically admitted this threat to the Committee, telling the Committee that he wanted to ’cut this animal head off,’" prosecutors allege.
The government’s motion, filed late Tuesday, describes all of the evidence it plans to introduce in Saipov’s April trial and all of the items it wants the court to exclude.
It plans to call on some of Saipov’s 11 living victims, some who were permanently disfigured following the attack, and will include the never-before-seen note that Saipov allegedly left at the scene.
