They Aren't Charging Him With a Hate Crime

Is this because no one heard him say anything? Ex-con Jarrod Powell arrested in attack on Asian man in NYC

The guy arrested in Jarrod Powell.

Cops on Tuesday arrested a 49-year-old ex-con who they say is the monster caught on video repeatedly kicking an Asian man in the head last week in East Harlem.

This guy is known to police. Is anyone shocked?

Powell — who has at least 33 prior run-ins with the law, the majority of which for assaults, dating back to 1988 — was arrested early Tuesday and charged with two counts of felony assault, cops said.

“He shouldn’t be out in these streets,” one police source said.

But keeping habitual, violent offenders in jail would be unfair.

Cops are not sure about the motivation for the attack. Or if they are sure, they don't believe that they can prove anything.
