“Salem Seleiman took part in the repugnant and bias-motivated assault of a Jewish man who was peacefully attending a rally,” said District Attorney Bragg. “The victim was targeted based on his religion and did nothing to warrant physical violence.

If you or someone you know has been the victim of a hate crime, I urge you to call 911 or report it to our Hate Crimes Unit at 212-335-3100.”

“A jury convicted Lenue Moore on all counts for the deplorable execution style murders of his neighbor Jacqueline Billini and her friend Levaughn Harvin, and the death of Ms. Billini’s dog, Zeus. This extreme violence came after Ms. Bellini reported Moore for breaking into her home where he injured her and others in a burglary that he also now stands convicted of committing. I commend the bravery of Ms. Billini’s and Mr. Harvin’s family members for coming forward to testify at trial to recount the horrific experiences they endured. I thank our prosecutors for presenting a strong and compelling case.” – District Attorney Bragg.
