How was a subway hijacking teen arrested 12 times — and repeatedly let go by judges — in just a year? Toxic empathy

Judges let 18-year-old subway hijacker Justine Randall-Pizarro go, not once, not twice, but five times this calendar year in an apparent bid to show mercy.
But all they’ve really done is allow a clearly troubled teen to rack up a rap sheet of more than a dozen arrests this year, cause havoc on the transit network, inconvenience commuters and harass already overworked MTA employees.
Randall-Pizarro was busted for commandeering a locked N train at 4am in June, wearing a black hat and Crocs, then driving it one stop from the Broadway station in Astoria to 36th Avenue.
Leftists cities are riffed with crime. Too empathy is not a good thing. Leftists have empathy for criminals and evil.
