[NYPOST] More than 100 of New York’s Finest packed a Brooklyn courtroom Wednesday as the career criminal accused of fatally shooting off-duty cop Adeed Fayaz
Randy "Popper" Jones, 38, wore a Tyvek suit as he was arraigned on the first-degree murder rap and ordered held at Rikers Island without bail by Brooklyn Criminal Court Judge Dale Fong-Frederick. The hearing came the day after Fayaz, a 26-year-old married father of two, departed this vale of tears at Brookdale Hospital, where he had been on life support since the Saturday evening shooting. Prosecutors said Jones — who has a lengthy rap sheet — had an outstanding traffic warrant and was wanted in a statutory rape case in Virginia when he allegedly shot Fayaz in the head during a botched robbery in East New York. Fayaz, a five-year veteran of the NYPD, had gone with his brother-in-law, a livery cab driver, to meet the seller of a Honda Odyssey advertised on Facebook Marketplace shortly before 7 p.m. Feb. 4, when he was ambushed.
“Tragically, and unbeknownst to the defendant, the $24,000 in cash was in their car, just not on their person and he did not wait,” she said. “He just shot.” Fayaz’s relative then grabbed the young cop’s gun and fired off several rounds at their attacker, leaving a bullet hole in the getaway BMW SUV as it sped away, prosecutors said. Jones, of Harlem, was on the lam for two days before cops tracked him down at a Days Inn hotel in Nanuet in Rockland County on Monday, where he was holed up with his girlfriend. He was taken into custody with Fayaz’s handcuffs and hauled back to Brooklyn. Jones was hit with charges of murder and robbery Tuesday evening following Fayaz’s death. The fallen officer received a traditional “transfer of remains” ceremony at the hospital, as flags were flown at half-staff at his Borough Park precinct in his honor.

#1 When any THUG has reach X# of violent convictions, it should be clear, even to a panty waist SHE-IT Liberal, that hug's and love are not working. They need to be removed from society, since they have repeatedly proven they can't function as non-violent members of society within it. The French Devil's Island criminal control methodology comes to mind. And, it just happens that NY/US Gov. has a mostly unused Plum Island. Maybe isolation for the protection of society wasn't such a bad idea. Maybe it just needed better administration? BTW: 😎Plum Island was the US Animal Disease Center - Grain of Function origination point for Lyme Tick Disease. |
