An accused rapist released from Riker’s Island in New York due to the coronavirus outbhreak was rearrested for raping another woman in Brooklyn just days later.

According to reports, Pondexter was walking on a sidewalk when he violently forced a 58-year-old woman into a school parking lot and then attempted to rape her.
Breitbart.com reports: The woman was eventually able to kick Pondexter off of her. The attack occurred just 10 days after Pondexter had been released from Riker’s Island under Cuomo’s directives.
Now, Pondexter has been charged with rape, sexual abuse, and criminal possession of crack cocaine.
The Brooklyn District Attorney’s office told News 12 that Pondexter’s “parole hold was lifted and he was released after it was revealed in court that his case was going to be dismissed because the victims were not cooperative,” explaining his release from Riker’s Island 10 days before the alleged rape.
As of April 20, New York City had released more than 1,500 inmates from prisons due to the coronavirus even as some crime, such as car theft, has skyrocketed in the midst of Cuomo’s statewide stay-at-home orders.
