A New York man who was caught on video punching an elderly Asian woman 125 times earlier this year has been sentenced to over 17 years in jail in connection with the hate crime attack, officials say.

“This is a case that has traumatized not only the victim and her family, but also her neighbors in the city of Yonkers, the broader Westchester community and the broader Asian American and Pacific Islander community really across the country,” Rocah said.

In the March 11 attack, the woman was walking into her apartment building on Riverdale Avenue in Yonkers when Esco, who lived in the same building and was outside in front, yelled at her calling her a racial slur, Rocah said. “We appreciate the love and support of the community and the many people who were outraged by this hateful attack. Hate has no place in this society,” Wu said.

“In 27 years of policing, this was one of the most violent and one of the most heinous crimes I’ve ever witnessed,” Sapienza said.revealing she had to leave her longtime home after the attack and feared for her life.

What a surprise, another black guy having to prove again how repulsive they have become this society. Yeah, he's a bad mother fucker for beating up an elderly Asian woman. blackbrotherswithoutfathers

Man of no race hits Asian woman

Good!

He's done.

Why only 17 years ?

Ridiculous excuse for a man. Should set him on fire.

I dont get this....black people assaulting people....Youre a minority....wtf

That is one tough lady. Bless her heart. I hope he rots.

That is what he should have got. until we enforced our laws more trouble from bully. Put them in jail!

Good!

🙏🙏🙏

Good! About time we get some protection out here.

Attempted murder

Bye bye Bubba

Disgraceful human

diversity is our greatest strength

John 6:35 “I am the bread of life,” Jesus told them. “No one who comes to Me will ever be hungry, and no one who believes in Me will ever be thirsty again

Man? I think piece of dirt is more appropriate. I wish it was longer than 17 years.

Inmates should give him a beating everyday

Sum ting Wong with him

He should get 1 year for each time he hit her.

He'll be out in 6 months

WOW!!!! Even with our GOVERNOR, he has to serve time! I don’t believe it with Governor being a PRO-CONVICT AND CRIMINAL!!! Guess she has to SUPPORT HER OWN!!!! 😡😡😡

He was sentenced to jail in NY for a crime. The DA must have fallen asleep

Typical

Looks like a Black man. What's his dam problem ?

This is typical of who actually attacks Asian! This guy of affirmative action, moved ahead of Asians in college admissions, advancement! You can’t appease some people! You only get the truth from Nbcuniversal when it fits their narrative!

I hope some little Asian judo man in jail kicks his ass. lol

A Biden voting Democrat and BLM bigot.

much deserved if you ask me 🥴

How about some REAL reporting?

Weird. New York usually lets criminals go without charge.

Where is Miguel Almaguer ?

Posted ad nauseam. How much is ENOUGH?!

No mention of the race of the attacker. How odd…

NBC actually calling it a hate crime when it's not a white person who brutalized someone over their race? Were you guys controlling Twitter before or was Twitter controlling you?

Ny man but Asian woman?

Ignorance breeds violence.

The comments on here continue to prove that Elon's Twitter is 🗑️

What's Lebron's thoughts?

He should've gotten 125 years for each punch

BLM

I'm seeing a pattern starting to emerge in all these attacks on Asians...but I can't quite put my finger on it.

In Brazil, mobilizations demanding that the results of the presidential election be audited are becoming more massive by the day. The electoral authority's response is censorship. The least, in such a close and partial election, is for there to be transparency.

Interesting thing is, why always black man attacking Asian women, almost each time

So sick of these white supremacists

Those dang white supremacy types again 🤷🏿‍♂️

Any thoughts

These bloody white supremacists at it again!

A Portland, Oregon New Seasons Market had 'Stop Asian Hate' and 'Black Lives Matter' banners next to each other, which is a farce since blacks are the ones doing most of these hate crimes. Each story like this helps debunk wokeness and belligerent cop haters. BLM

IAmSophiaNelson under the jail he goes

Tossers are careful not to say 'black man'.

Great

Separate them from society forever. There is no hope for them and it’s dangerously naive to think so.

Good!

Good. These hoodlums need to be punished even more.

Why are white people so racist?!?!

That sentence seems too light. What a coward.

It's about time...

He should have received one year per punch to total 125 years! I hope someone takes care of him in jail to feel some of the pain the lady went through.

Cowardly,insidious,atrocious and unconscionable !

This guy is why we need prisons. EndTheDeathPenalty

Let’s not hear any nonsense about how blacks are treated by the justice system - he was wrong

Did he punch her with his mind or his fist?

Bad day for NYC leftists -can't blame Trump.

The funny part...always I saw news about agression to asian people...the agressor was always black...i could be wrong, of course...But the fact is...black people knows above all what is to be persuit with agression and racial harassment.

Why does Merrick Garland ignore this type of hate crime?

Black people can't be racist

I'm sorry, 125 times? Good God, I'm glad he didn't kill her.

Get a rope!

It was a horrific crime and I am relieved she survived. The ongoing recovery process will be painful and slow, but I pray she finds the strength, support and loving care she needs 🙏💝

125 times!

Only 17yrs... Ima man of justice and rulership against harsh activity towards Anyone.. Especially, vulnerable women and children He would be brought to me. Whenever I begin to rule ⚔️🌎

IAmSophiaNelson He deserves it.

IAmSophiaNelson Should of been the death penalty. I’m sure he’s a contributing member to society

Glad but wish it was for longer.

A 'man', seems like a real misnomer

And this... is one of those 'white supremacists' that the news keeps warning everyone about. But shouldn't the person have to actually be white and not a person of color? Truth matters. And it's easy to look up all of the videos on youtube.

Ha ha ha

125 times? Let his ass rot

Yep. He deserved to rot in prison.

We need Canadian courts to do the same

redwingschic Hitting on a old person.. I don't care if you hate someone or if you're racist hitting a elderly person does not make you a man and it does not make you standing up for whatever it is you're claiming to be. This is just cowardly and no conscience Elderly cannot fight. Pure evil
