Man who killed his mother arrested in brutal attack on Asian woman in NYC
2021-04-01
[CBS News] A homeless man on lifetime parole after serving time for killing his mother has been arrested in the brutal attack Monday on a 65-year-old Asian woman in midtown Manhattan. Police say Brandon Elliot, 38, was apprehended in a hotel where he was staying that's being used as a homeless shelter. The hotel is near the site of the attack.

He was charged early Wednesday with two counts of felony assault as a hate crime, attempted assault as a hate crime, assault and attempted assault. If convicted, he could face up to 25 years in prison, the district attorney's office said.

Numerous tips led to Elliot's capture, police told CBS News, adding that Elliot was released from prison in 2019. Police were offering a $2,500 reward for information leading to an arrest. There was no early word on whether the money would be awarded or to whom.

#4  Ever notice how the media and movie industry portrays these people as police captains, wealthy musicians, or happy family men, but seldom as criminals? Portrayed even less often as actors in liquor or wine commercials.

Just a casual observation. Probably means nothing.

#1  His actions should come as no surprise. Our urban incubators have been working 3 shifts per day for decades producing social deviants like Brandon.
