Sex fiend who sucker punched stranger described as 'imminent threat' at hearing

2022-08-22

[NYPOST]

The convicted sex fiend freed without bail after he allegedly sucker punched a stranger into a coma was described at a parole hearing Saturday as "an imminent threat to the community."

And so he is. And has been, not that it mattered until his actions got international attention embarrassing to The Powers That Be who previously blocked all actions to stop him.

Van Phu Bui,

...in our archives as Bui Van Phu — one must be his name Western style, with family name last, the other Eastern style, family name first, but I’ve no idea which order is which...

who was sent to jail Friday only after a public outcry and intervention by Gov. Kathy Hochul, belongs to the vicious Born to Kill gang, his parole officer, Nixa Rivera, said at the Bronx proceeding.

"Mr. Bui is a 55-year-old male with a persistent ~~violent~~ mostly peaceful felony offender history," Rivera said. "Mr. Bui is a registered level three sex offender, the highest level on the sexual offender registry. Mr. Bui continues to be an imminent threat to the community."

She said the Vietnamese immigrant had been living in a shelter for the past six years, had no family or community ties, and had worked the cash register at a nail salon for the past two years.

Bui, who is on lifetime parole, had been released without bail after his arrest Wednesday for punching 52-year-old Jesus Cortes unconscious on a Bronx street Aug. 12, according to a criminal complaint.

Cortes remained at Jacobi Medical Center Saturday where his family said he was sedated and on a ventilator following surgery.

The NYPD charges of attempted murder were later downgraded by Bronx District Attorney Darcel Clark to misdemeanor assault and harassment, which are no-bail violations.

After outrage was sparked by The Post’s front page coverage Friday of Bui’s release, Hochul claimed credit for sending him back to jail saying her administration reached out to Clark’s office to discuss the case.

"This is a person on lifetime parole, and as of minutes ago, that person is now in jug. That is at my direction," Hochul crowed Friday. She criticized judges and district attorneys Saturday while speaking at a Hamptons synagogue.

Rivera indicated at Saturday’s hearing that "the pending criminal charges will be elevated to felonies."
