Fresh blood on Judge Janice Robinsons hands get her out of NYC criminal court NOW

How much havoc must let-’em-loose Judge Janice Robinson wreak on New York streets before she’s forced off the Criminal Court bench?The latest outrage: It turns out she sprang Nayshawn Wilkinson over prosecutors’ objections just last month, bare weeks before he allegedly shot another man near the West Indian Day parade route.In that earlier case, Wilkinson faced charges including attempted murder over two shots fired at a 15-year-old victim who got hit in the foot, requiring surgery.Prosecutors pleaded with her to keep the perp behind bars, but she let him walk on a puny $5,000 bail or $10,000 bond — the latter figure meaning he’d personally have to put up just $1,000.On Wednesday, another judge did it right, setting Wilkinson’s bail at $500,000 in the new case.This was no outlier of Robinson’s injustice: Last month, we noted how she turned loose two other perps accused of attempted murder on no bail at all.Indeed, she’s never — not even once — granted prosecutors’ requests for bail or remand.Of 13 arraignments The Post reviewed, eight resulted in no bail whatsoever for the defendants, and low bail for the other five.A judge who repeatedly frees the worst of the worst perps certainly stands out as the worst of the worst bench-warmers, but the local corrupt, inbred judge-picking system too often produces dangerously unqualified jurists like Robinson, the niece of former Assemblyman Nick Perry.NYPD data for this year show that, through August, cops hauled in 263 bad guys who’d been arrested three or more times for felony assault.Subscribe to our daily Post Opinion newsletter!
