Venezuelan Migrant with Tren de Aragua Ties Arrested for Robbery of Manhattan Prosecutor
Nov 21, 2024, 02:55 PM
A Venezuelan migrant with ties to the Tren de Aragua gang, identified as Brandon Simosa, was arrested for allegedly robbing an assistant district attorney in Manhattan after she caught him masturbating in her apartment building. Simosa, who illegally crossed the U.S. border in Texas in 2023, has been arrested six times in the last ten months for various crimes including assault, grand larceny, and transit fare evasion. He was staying at a taxpayer-funded hotel in Manhattan at the time of his arrest. The incident has raised concerns about the handling of illegal immigrants with criminal backgrounds and the safety of public officials, especially those working under Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg.
