NYC Subway Shover Sprung Days Before Attack by Same Judge Who Let Cellist Attacker Walk

A criminal-coddling Big Apple judge with just 13 months on the bench has already sprung at least three maniacs — including the unhinged nutter who allegedly pushed a woman into a moving subway this week, The Post has learned.

Judge Marva Brown cut loose Markeese Brazelis on a 3rd-degree sexual abuse charge last week for groping a woman on a C train platform at West 50th Street and Eighth Avenue, despite the charge being bail-eligible, according to court records and law enforcement sources.

Four days later, Brazelis, 26, allegedly shoved a 23-year-old straphanger into the side of a speeding A train at a Washington Heights subway station; later, he made a terrifying confession to cops that he was “high” and “mad” during the attack, according to prosecutors.

The jurist’s dangerous decision last month isn’t an outlier. Other cases where Brown sprung violent perps without bail include:

• In February, Brown, 43, brushed aside prosecutors’ $15,000 cash bail request for Amira Hunter, who was caught on camera bashing a subway cellist in the head with a metal water bottle at the 34th Street-Herald Square station before fleeing. The Manhattan DA’s Office argued the subway psycho, who had at least eight prior arrests, had failed to show up to three out of her five court dates in the year before the unprovoked attack and should be held on bail, but Brown let the unhinged assailant go on supervised release. Less than a week later, Hunter, 23, was busted again for trying to swipe a $325 Moncler hat from a Midtown Nordstrom, prompting Brown to issue a $500 bail order. Hunter later pled guilty to assaulting the cellist.
• Nunchuck-wielding lunatic Bryant Kenyatta, who allegedly fractured podcaster Stephen Lewis’ arm with the weapon in an unprovoked Midtown attack in April. Kenyatta, 50, had 12 prior arrests. Brown shrugged off prosecutors’ request to hold him on $100,000 cash bail on felony assault and criminal weapon possession charges, and let him out on supervised release.

Brown, elected in November 2023 to serve a 10-year term in Brooklyn Civil Court, ran on the Democratic and far-left Working Families Party lines. {snip}

During a prior 2021 run for a Brooklyn Civil Court gavel, Brown insisted in a video interview that, as a judge, she would be “fair and impartial” to those who come before her, but also would apply her own discretion.

“I have empathy, I have foresight to say, ‘This person can be better and can do better if given the proper tools and opportunities,’” she said.
