Repeat offender Alexander Bonds pulled the trigger that killed NYPD Officer Miosotis Familia, but he didn't get there alone. Throughout his life, Bonds was abetted by judges and other people in government who did everything in their power to keep him out of prison, no matter what he did to deserve being in prison.
They also gave him unknown quantities of tax dollars to subsidize his criminal lifestyle, pried from hard-working citizens and their families. That's a story nobody ever tells.
Only Alexander Bonds knows how many crimes Alexander Bonds committed before stepping up to a police truck and assassinating Officer Familia. Few in the media seem interested in even trying to piece together his criminal record. Bonds used multiple aliases. His sealed juvenile record indicates he was committing crimes prior to 2001.
