Man charged in hate crime assault on Asian woman in New York City pleads not guilty, held on $1 million bond
A man charged in a hate crime assault on an Asian woman in New York City in March pleaded not guilty and is being held on a $1 million bond, according to the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office.
Brandon Elliot, 38, was arraigned virtually on Monday in the state Supreme Court, according to Manhattan DA spokeswoman Naomi Puzzelo.
“Judge Maxwell Wiley set bail in the amount of $500,000 cash, or $1 million Insurance Company Bond, or $1 million Bond-Surety-Partially Secured,” said Puzzelo.
The video, which seems to be from the vantage point of a camera inside the apartment complex on 360 West 43rd St., appears to show onlookers not reacting to the attack as the woman is kicked repeatedly in broad daylight.
