He ran off but cops nabbed him hours later and charged him with felony assault \u2014 enough to finally get him jailed.<\/p>\n
The victim, who identified himself only as Fernando, told The Post he needed seven stitches to close the gash on his face \u2014 and wondered how the brute was free to attack him.<\/p>\n
\u201cHe\u2019s a criminal who got released by a judge and he could\u2019ve killed me,\u201d he said. \u201cI don\u2019t know why the justice system lets him go free.\u201d<\/p>\n

Marshall, who had already racked up seven arrests \u2014 including an unprovoked attack on a 27-year-old man on an MTA bus in the Lower East Side on Jan. 26 \u2014 is now being held without bail.<\/p>\n
Records show he served more than a year at the state\u2019s Sing Sing Correctional Facility in Westchester County on a robbery conviction before he was released in June 2024.<\/p>\n
In the Aug. 8 incident, prosecutors said Marshall was on a 6-train at the Zerega Avenue station in the Bronx when he slashed a 21-year-old man in the face moments before the subway doors closed.<\/p>\n
Wolf, a former civil court judge, was appointed to the bench by Mayor Eric Adams last year.<\/p>\n
Officials at the state Office of Court Administration, which speaks for Empire State judges, did not immediately respond to a request for comment on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

But in a statement Tuesday, OCA spokesman Al Baker said the office \u201cdoes not comment on individual bail determinations.\u201d<\/p>\n
Baker added that judges have discretion on bail-eligible cases after an assessment that \u201cinvolves due consideration of information and arguments presented by the prosecutor and defense council, as well as other materials submitted to the court.\u201d<\/p>\n
Marshall\u2019s public defense attorney, Alyssa Work, argued during the Sept. 15 hearing that Marshall had close ties to the community and was enrolled in a drug treatment program.<\/p>\n
\u201cMr. Marshall, he\u2019s got community ties, judge,\u201d Work told Wolf. \u201cHe has shown that in the past, although he certainly has had some contacts [with the court system], he has by and large returned to court when he has to return to court.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A deranged vagrant charged in a random Manhattan slashing this week was set to be locked up on…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":3997,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[211,4190,4234,75,57,9,56,63,65,64,1210,362,129,58],"class_list":{"0":"post-3996","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-new-york-city","8":"tag-assault","9":"tag-bail","10":"tag-judges","11":"tag-manhattan","12":"tag-metro","13":"tag-new-york","14":"tag-ny","15":"tag-nyc","16":"tag-nyc-headlines","17":"tag-nyc-news","18":"tag-nyc-transit","19":"tag-subway-slashings","20":"tag-the-bronx","21":"tag-us-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3996","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3996"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3996\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3997"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3996"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3996"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3996"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
