Leftist Alvin Bragg refuses to conduct trial of assailant charged with manslaughter
Opinion: Than Htwe’s killer was convicted but justice was not served
BY KARLIN CHAN
12/5/22 The Village Sun
In a plea deal agreed to with Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s office last month, David Robinson was sentenced on Friday to one to three years in prison for the death of Than Htwe.
Htwe, 58, was exiting the Canal Street station subway on July 17, 2021, with her son for a day of shopping and a visit to a Buddhist temple in Chinatown, when Robinson grabbed the son’s backpack, causing mother and son to fall down a flight of stairs.
Htwe sustained severe head trauma in the fall. She eventually succumbed to her injuries. Meanwhile, Robinson evaded capture for several months.
Robinson was eventually arrested in September 2021 and charged with first-degree manslaughter. Citing difficulty in winning a conviction to Htwe’s family, the D.A.’s office allowed Robinson to plead guilty to second-degree manslaughter with a sentence recommendation of one to three years.
Since Robinson has been incarerated since his arrest in September 2021, with 14 months’ time already served, he can technically be released tomorrow. Justice was not served here.
Chan is a Chinatown community activist and member of Community Board 3.

11/14/18 press release: “Organization of Chinese Americans (OCA) Response to 2017 FBI Hate Crime Report”
Contact: Thu Nguyen | Senior Communications Associate
tnguyen at ocanational.org | 202.223.5500
Washington, DC – OCA – Asian Pacific American Advocates is alarmed by the increase in hate crimes as detailed in the 2017 FBI Hate Crimes Report that was released Tuesday morning.
The report shows a continued increase in hate crimes against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPIs.) Anti-Asian incidents increased sixteen percent for a total of 131 in 2017, and anti-Native Hawaiian or other Pacific Islander incidents increased fifty-six percent to 16 in 2017. However, due to systemic underreporting, the reality for AAPIs is not accurately represented by this data.
“Since OCA’s founding, we have fought tirelessly against anti-AAPI hate crimes,” said Sharon M. Wong, OCA National President. “Unfortunately, the bigotry and hatred did not start with the murder of Vincent Chin, and has not ended since then. Hate crimes are vastly underreported, whether that be due to the system or due to the fear that minority and marginalized communities have internalized. It is our job to be responsible in cultivating a more inclusive society, free from prejudice and fear. While law enforcement must improve their training to identify hate crimes against these communities and better respond to them, OCA will continue to work on the ground to foster a stronger society in which our community feels safer.”
Individuals can report incidents of hate at the OCA AAPI Hate Crimes Reporting Website, which can be found at aapihatecrimes.org.

6/23/17 Detroit Free Press: “Vincent Chin murder 35 years later: History repeating itself?”
by Niraj Warikoo
Thirty-five years ago this week, Gary Koivu visited a Detroit hospital to see his friend Vincent Chin, his head swathed in bandages after being slugged in Highland Park by a man with a baseball bat.
“It was very upsetting,” recalled Koivu, 61, of Harrison Township, who was 26 at the time o the incident. “I had been friends with him for 20 years. I asked the nurse, How is he doing? What are his chances? She said, he has no chance, she said his brain was dead.”
A couple of days later, Chin died, 35 years ago Thursday.
The tragic death — and subsequent lenient punishment (probation and a $3,000 fine) — outraged Asian Americans in Detroit. They organized, forming new coalitions and the civil rights group American Citizens for Justice, sparking an Asian-American civil rights movement that continues today. On Saturday, a forum will be held at a Chinese-American center in Madison Heights to remember Vincent Chin with a documentary screening, panel discussion with Koivu and the director of Michigan’s Civil Rights Dept. and a visit to Chin’s grave site in Detroit. Of Chinese descent, Chin was an adopted son of immigrants from China in metro Detroit.

The Chinese American Citizens Alliance Boston Lodge condemns the cultural form of violence represented by the music video “Meet the Flockers.” This extremely racist video, produced by Keenon Daequan Ray Jackson aka rapper YG, incites and perpetuates racial stereotypes, horrendous violence and despicable crime against Chinese Americans.

10/12/16 Fox5DC: “Rapper under fire for song lyrics encouraging robberies against Chinese Americans”
By: Marina Marraco
SILVER SPRING, Md. – Music fans and protesters both gathered at The Fillmore in Silver Spring Wednesday night. The fans were there to see rapper YG perform inside the concert venue while the protesters were outside to denounce some of the rapper’s lyrics.
The controversial lyrics come in the song “Meet The Flockers” that was released two years ago and the protesters are arguing that they are a step-by-step guide to street violence that seem to be directed against the Chinese American community.

5/26/16 English East Day: “Chinese student beaten in possible hate crime”
Safety concerns were rising among Chinese students after a Chinese woman was brutally beaten in an possible hate crime last week in Tempe, Arizona.
Xiaolin Shi, an undergraduate at Arizona State University, said she was assaulted by a white woman on a train on the way home between 10:30 pm and 11 pm on May 20.
Kalie Rutledge, 22, began yelling slurs like “Bitch, go f—ing back to China” to Shi and her friend after they got on the train and talked in Chinese, Shi told China Daily.
She said the suspect aggressively approached them and continued berating them for a while. As they were about to get off the train at their stop, the suspect came at them and punched Shi in the face.
“I lost consciousness for a few seconds, and then I found myself on the ground with blood all over my face,” Shi said. Her friend was also attacked but didn’t sustain serious injuries.
Shi had a broken bone in her face and swelling to her eye. She said the doctor told her surgery might be necessary, though she was currently in stable condition.
The suspect was arrested by Tempe police that night on a charge of aggravated assault and then booked into Maricopa County Jail. According to Maricopa County court documents, Rutledge was released after an initial appearance on May 24, and is scheduled to appear for a preliminary hearing on May 31.
According to the website jail.com, Rutledge was arrested at least 10 times previously on charges including criminal damage, drug paraphernalia use or possession, disorderly conduct and violation of probation.
“It was 100 percent racial hatred, no other reason,” said Shi. “I don’t know her (Rutledge). I’ve never met her before.”
Four months ago in Tempe, another Chinese girl, Yue Jiang, also an international student at Arizona State, was shot dead by a white woman whose car bumped hers while Jiang was driving home from a shopping trip with her boyfriend.
No trial date has been set for Holly Davis, 32, the suspect in Jiang’s case, said Rebecca Wilder, spokeswoman for the Maricopa County District Attorney’s office, who declined to comment on both cases, saying they were pending.
Though police tried to ease fears among Chinese students telling them that Jiang’s case was a “random act of violence”, safety has been a top concern since the shooting.
“At least for a long while, we had been very cautious. Many students talked about buying a gun for protection,” said Kevin Cheng, a Chinese student at Arizona State. “The local Chinese set up a group on WeChat. Sometimes they give lectures on using firearms.”
He said racial tension was not rare where he lived, and he had similar experiences on campus, on the train and while attending an NBA game.
“We wish we could do something to change it, but unfortunately, it seems there’s little we can do but rally to make our voice heard,” Cheng said. “We are talking about a rally at the court when Jiang’s killer stands trial.”
To Christine Liu, a Chinese student at Arizona State who lived close to the location where Jiang was killed, there was not blatant racial prejudice.
“But I can feel the sense of hostility against Asians,” she said.

Those incidents included the brutal slashing of 16-year-old exchange student JiaJia Liang in December while she walked to school in Queens and the stabbing of playwright David Henry Hwang in Brooklyn in November.

9/20/12 NBC 10 Philadelphia: “SugarHouse Winners Targeted, 4 Robberies Reported: Cops; One victim,
who is 8 months pregnant, spoke exclusively to NBC10 about the attack that happened after she and her
husband left the casino,”
By Rosemary Connors and Lauren DiSanto
Philadelphia Police tell NBC10 there have been at least four incidents in the past few months where
winners from SugarHouse Casino were robbed after returning home. According to both police and the
victims, the robbers share a similar description and could be specifically targeting Asian casino winners.
The most recent incident happened early Wednesday when two family members were robbed as they
returned home to the 2800 block of Welsh Street.
Another victim, who was robbed early Sunday, is 8 months pregnant.  She says she was attacked after
leaving SugarHouse with her husband.
Surveillance video captured by a neighbor’s security camera shows the woman and her husband being
ambushed right after they arrived back home in their Northeast Philadelphia neighborhood.
The victim, who did not want to be identified, says the two men were armed with tasers.
She spent three days in the hospital recovering from her injuries. The woman tells NBC10 she feels
like they were being watched as they cashed out their winnings.
The woman had $8,000 dollars in her purse, along with her mother’s diamond ring that she was
planning to take to the jewelers.
SugarHouse Casino released the following statement late Wednesday night:
“SugarHouse is cooperating fully with police as they investigate the alleged profiling of Asian players.
Nothing is more important than the safety of our guests. With 500 surveillance cameras, we are
providing law enforcement countless photos to quickly apprehend these thugs,” said Wendy Hamilton,
General Manager.

by David M. Kinchen
As the temperatures rise in Chicago, the nation’s third largest city, attacks by black ‘”teens”
are on the rise, although you wouldn’t know it from the politically correct news reports. The attacks
follow the patterns of last year’s “wildings” in Philadelphia, Milwaukee and at the Wisconsin State Fair, with
mobs of young blacks attacking whites and others.
If you read the CBS News report (link:http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2012/06/13/surveillance-pictures-released-in-mob-attack-on-cta-red-line/ )
you’ll have to look far down in the story to discover that the “teens” are black and the victims are whites or
Asian-Americans — typical of the politically correct newswriting and editing practiced by the liberal media.

6/15/11 The Cornell Daily Sun: “Police Arrest Teenager for Alleged West Campus Assault,”
By Juan Forrer
Cornell University Police arrested and charged Viktor P. Nikulin, 19, Tuesday for what police say
may have been a racially motivated assault against an Asian male who was riding his bicycle on
campus.
On June 5, three individuals in a vehicle yelled racial epithets at a student [6] of Asian descent
riding his bicycle on College Avenue near the intersection of Campus Road, police said. The vehicle
followed the victim onto West Avenue where Nikulin allegedly exited the vehicle and assaulted him.
The victim was treated for injuries at Cayuga Medical Center and released.
Nikulin, who is not a Cornell student, was arraigned Tuesday in the City of Ithaca Court and
released on his own recognizance. Cornell Police have been in discussions with the Tompkins
County District Attorney’s office to determine whether the assault can be prosecuted as a hate crime.
Chief of Police Kathy Zoner said that CUPD, working through leads from witnesses, contacted
Nikulin and asked him to come into Barton Hall, where he was arrested.
While police initially reported four individuals in the vehicle, the description of the incident was
later revised to only three people.
The other two individuals in the vehicle have not been charged, Zoner said. It will be up to the
District Attorney�s office to determine if charges will be filed against the other two individuals, she said.
President David Skorton and Susan Murphy �73, vice president of student and academic services,
condemned the attack in a statement issued June 8.
�We are relieved to report that the victim of this incident is expected to recover fully, we are
dismayed that such an incident should have occurred at all in our community,� Skorton and Murphy
said in the joint statement.

12/31/10 Poughkeepsie Journal:  “Cops: Burglaries near NYC target Asians, like local string over summer
by Emily Stewart
Town of Poughkeepsie police are warning residents about a series of burglaries in Westchester County
and Stamford, Conn., apparently targeted at Asian-Americans.
There have been no recent reports of similar incidents in Dutchess County, but over the summer town
police investigated a string of burglaries involving victims with Asian surnames. Five burglaries were
reported in June and July in a large housing development off Spackenkill Road, town Police Chief Thomas
Mauro said.
There were 10 additional burglaries in nearby towns, including East Fishkill, Union Vale, LaGrange,
Beekman and Wappinger involving victims with Asian surnames. In most cases, thieves took cash, jewelry
and identification documents, Mauro said.
Similar thefts have occurred elsewhere in the greater New York area. Most incidents took place during
the daytime when residents were not at home, he said.
In September, the New York Police Department arrested a Queens man authorities believe was involved
in break-ins targeted at Asian-Americans, according to police and written reports.
Town of Greenburgh police in Westchester confirmed Tuesday they are investigating a series of
burglaries apparently targeting people of South Asian descent. However, not all of the burglaries have
specifically targeted South Asians.
Mauro advises residents to follow “simple crime prevention tips” to reduce the odds of being targeted.
� Lock all doors and windows properly.
� Secure valuables in a safe or safe-deposit box.
� Install exterior lights with motion detectors.
� Consider a home alarm system.
� If you are away from home for a period of time, have the driveway cleared of snow and mail retrieved
from the box.

6/14/10 The Anniston Star: “Alabama�s hate-crime rate,”
by our readers
The FBI says hate crime incidents per 100,000 for 2008 were 2.9 percent nationwide.
New Jersey had the highest rate with 8.6, and Alabama had the lowest rate with 0.4. Are
Alabama law enforcement agencies accurately reporting hate crimes?
For example, a recent incident in a Montgomery high school involved an Asian-
American student and one or more African-American students. The high school is 94
percent African-American and very, very few students of Asian descent. If the incident
involved an African-American student and white student in a school that was 94 percent
white with very, very few African-Americans, then activists would be leading marches and
giving interviews on national TV proclaiming �hate crime, hate crime.�
I am not convinced Alabama has the lowest hate crime rate in the United States. The
incident cited above may be a hate crime but not reported as one.

5/10/10 cbs5.com (San Francisco): “Bay Area Ex-Con Admits To Targeting Asians,”
http://cbs5.com/local/asian.crime.targets.2.1686348.html
Recent attacks on Asian-Americans have stoked racial tensions in some Bay Area
communities. One African-American ex-con admits to targeting Asians, but says he didn’t
do it out of hate.
Ananze Emenike talks about robbing Asians like it was no big deal – during his teen
years, it wasn’t.
“We got busted for a hate crime, due to the fact that when they linked us to the other
robberies�they were 75-85 per cent Asian,” recalled Emenike.
Emenike’s reign of terror ended with his arrest in 2007 at the age of 17. Ananze said
he once targeted Asians, but not because he had any animosity toward his victims. He
said he chose Asian victims due to a perception that they carried a lot of money, wouldn’t
fight back, and wouldn’t go to police because of a language barrier.
“We would go places where we knew Asians would carry a lot of money. Like for a
good example Stonestown. That was a place we knew lots of Asians came and spent a
lot of money,” he recalled.
Race played a part in Emenike’s robberies. His victims were targeted because of
race, but for specific reasons, they presented for him a crime of opportunity. We can’t tell
you about all such crimes, but it does offer a different perspective to the debate.
Emenike has cleaned up his act, after spending time in prison. He’s now a video
producer for the news agency Youth Outlook.

5/6/10 New America Media: “San Francisco’s ‘Black on Chinese’ Violence Goes Back
Decades.”
http://news.ncmonline.com/news/view_article.html?article_id=dbcb572a81ab28c969cae0c307f408ae
Commentary by Hubert V. Yee
African-American and Asian-American elected and appointed officials have failed to
address the growing racial tensions in southeast San Francisco.
Growing up as an Asian American in southeast San Francisco was not easy. Safety
was a huge issue for all residents. We heard gunshots at night and sirens wailing past
our homes. Our neighbors and family members heard stories about other neighbors and
family members becoming victims of crimes by a segment of the African-American
community.
When I was 16, I was attacked by eight African Americans while riding Muni�s 15 Third
bus line. I was spit on. We fought. I was beaten unconscious and remained out for a few
seconds. I am reminded every day that I was beaten for no apparent reason when I look in
the mirror and see my scar.
My mother and father were also victims. I remember waking up hearing my mom and
dad screaming. I ran downstairs to see my mom and dad being robbed and assaulted
in front of our home by two African Americans.
These criminals target Asian Americans because we are seen as weak, unorganized,
foreign, and as �walking ATM machines.� We are racialized in many of these instances of
violence.
Our pain has not been felt or heard by so-called elected representatives, black and
Asian alike. Sophie Maxwell, who represents District 10 on the Board of Supervisors, has
said little. Others, like Human Rights Commissioner Yvonne Lee, have provided a false
historical narrative of the violence. At a recent commission meeting, Lee said these
incidents have only occurred in the �past several years.�
As a resident of the neighborhood for more than 25 years, I disagree.
Supervisor David Chiu said on TV that these instances were not racially motivated.
I disagree. The violence is racial. Asian Americans are seen as easy victims.
In order to heal, these �racialized� assumptions and misperceptions about Asian
Americans need to be acknowledged. We need community development projects that
involve multiracial interaction to dispel such racist stereotypes. In 2005, I created a youth
program, APIYLDP, that explored the African-American experience and the Asian-
American experience in District 10 with a group of multiracial youth and multiple
nonprofits. Asian-American youth learned about the African-American experience
through community immersion, fieldwork and research. Research conducted by youth
documented racial misunderstandings between Asian-American and African-American
youth. Results showed that the youth participating in this project better understood the
commonalities and the struggles the two communities shared.
Efforts to continue the dialogue between Asian-American and African-American
youth are hopeful solutions to the growing despair facing many Asian Americans in the
Bay View and Visitation Valley. We must focus on developing our community through
multiracial coalitions and continually hold accountable not only District 10 Supervisor
Sophie Maxwell, but also those who claim to be our voice: Asian-American elected and
appointed officials.
All San Francisco residents, including those in District 10, should feel safe riding a
bus, walking to school and being in their homes.
Hubert V. Yee has been a resident of San Francisco’s District 10 for more than 25
years.  As a community activist with a Master of Arts in Asian American Studies, he has
worked on multiple projects to develop healthier community relations.

5/2/10 San Francisco Chronicle: “Dirty secret of black-on-Asian violence is out,”
by C.W. Nevius
San Francisco’s hidden truth is out. That’s what community organizer Carol Mo calls
the realization that Asian residents are being targeted for robberies, burglaries and
intimidation by young black men.
“It is San Francisco’s dirty little secret,” said Mo, a former Safety Network Community
organizer in the Sunset District. “It’s not news to us.”
