Representative Lee Zeldin (R-NY) predicted exactly what would happen to his would-be attacker after the latter’s arrest
Thursday evening, at a campaign trail stop in New York State, a man tried to attack Representative Lee Zeldin (R-NY) with a sharp object. The man was arrested, charged with a felony, and released within hours.
Zeldin is the Republican candidate for Governor in New York, and he had predicted that under the state’s lax laws for dangerous individuals, his attacker would be released.
Of the attacker, Zeldin Tweeted the following.
“His words as he tried to stab me a few hours ago were ‘you’re done’, but several attendees, including @EspositoforNY, quickly jumped into action & tackled the guy. “Law enforcement was on the scene within minutes. The attacker will likely be instantly released under NY’s laws.”
Ironically, Zeldin’s speech right as the attack happened was on bail reform.
