NYC creep with 13 priors cut loose by judge after alleged sex crime spree targeting teens, women

“But you’ve also had an assault in the subway, and this case here is very similar to that case, sir. And I can see that there was some similarities in the modus operandi,” he added.

Despite his concerns about Beckum’s criminal history and the similarities between his past and current cases, Tisne ultimately granted supervised release, ordering him to stay away from the victims and avoid contact with anyone under 18, according to court records.

Beckum’s attorney, Michelle Rattoballi, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the case.

The decision to release Beckum drew sharp criticism from City Councilman Joe Borelli (R-Staten Island), who has been a vocal critic of the city’s bail reform policies.

“This is a clear example of how the ‘catch and release’ system emboldens criminals and puts New Yorkers at risk,” Borelli told The Post. “The judge’s decision to release this individual, despite his extensive criminal history and the seriousness of the charges against him, is irresponsible and dangerous.”

Beckum’s next court appearance in the Park Slope case is scheduled for June 7.

The NYPD did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the case.

Beckum’s long rap sheet includes arrests for robbery, assault, forcible touching, criminal contempt, and menacing, sources said.

He was also accused of groping a 13-year-old girl in the same subway station in 2022, but those charges were dropped when she refused to cooperate with prosecutors, sources said.

Beckum’s most recent prior arrest was for allegedly punching a 62-year-old man, a stranger, in the face and trying to throw him onto the tracks at the Flushing Avenue J/M station on March 9, 2024, cops said.

After that arrest, he was found unfit to stand trial and sent to a mental health program — where he had two initial appearances, but ultimately decided to cop out of the program.

That choice landed him back in a pre-trial courtroom on April 10, where he pleaded guilty to second-degree attempted assault and Judge Herbert Moses released him on his own recognizance pending sentencing, sources said.

It was not immediately clear whether prosecutors had any objection to that release. His next appearance in that case is scheduled for June 9, records show.

“You have open cases where you’ve been making your court dates,” Tisne said. “But you’ve also had an assault in the subway, and this case A recent case involving an open indictment has raised concerns about the handling of individuals with mental health issues in the judicial system. The defendant, Beckum, was found unfit to stand trial in his most recent cases, leading to his placement on Tier 2, Level 5 supervised release.

Beckum’s attorney, Luke Schram, acknowledged his client’s psychiatric history and indicated that Beckum denies the charges against him. Despite this, the judge, Tisne, decided to release Beckum under the highest level of supervision offered by the Brooklyn Justice Initiatives. Beckum is required to check in once a week and participate in recommended programs to address his mental health issues.

The decision to release Beckum has sparked controversy, with law enforcement sources expressing dissatisfaction with Tisne’s actions. Critics argue that releasing individuals with mental health issues does not benefit them or the community. One victim, Mongstad, expressed concern about Beckum potentially targeting other individuals, particularly younger girls.

Tisne’s track record of granting supervised release to individuals with mental health issues has come under scrutiny. In a previous case, Tisne released a vagrant with a history of arrests, despite prosecutors’ requests for bail. The decision raised concerns among law enforcement officials about the potential consequences of releasing individuals with extensive criminal histories.

The controversy surrounding Tisne’s decisions highlights the challenges of balancing mental health considerations with public safety concerns in the judicial system. The need for effective intervention and support for individuals with mental health issues remains a pressing issue in the criminal justice system.

As the case against Beckum unfolds, it will be essential to monitor the impact of supervised release on individuals with mental health issues and the communities they reside in. The outcome of this case may shed light on the need for more comprehensive approaches to addressing mental health issues within the criminal justice system.
