Gov. Cuoma has a soft spot for cop and baby killers

Marybeth Tinning without the kids

New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo's parole board has a soft spot in their hearts for cop killers and serial child-killers. And who can blame him--after all, he is a leftist with a heart of gold.

The Trump-hating governor's parole board will be freeing Marybeth Tinning, 75, next month. She was convicted of what Cuomo must view as relatively minor offenses: killing her 4-month-old daughter [hey, it's almost like a late-term abortion, right?], and admitted to smothering three of her other children.

Cuomo's board also sprung two notorious cop-killers and a gunman who killed a Bronx prosecutor.

Tinning told the panel, after spending 30 years in jail back in 2011, "When my daughter was young . . . I just believed she was going to die. So I just did it."

Because Tinning was correct, [yes, we are all going to die] the panel felt she killed her baby for the right reasons--kind of like how they feel about abortion, but that's already been said.

Board members, most of whom Cuomo picked, have been suffering the mental anguish of trying to find reasons to keep people who murder other people in prison:

In April, Herman Bell, a Black Liberation Army (BLA) member, ambushed and killed two NYPD cops 40 years ago in Harlem. He was paroled because the panel considered him an army veteran, one supposes.

In May, the panel let Robert Hayes go free. He was also a BLA member who shot and killed NYPD transit officer Sidney Thompson in 1973.

In June, Jose Diaz was let back out on the streets. He used a machine-gun to mow down 30-year-old Sean Healy, an assistant DA in the Bronx. Perhaps better gun control would have made Diaz reconsider.

"People who kill cops and kids should never see the light of day, let alone be paroled," Sen. Jim Tedisco (R-Schenectady) told The New York Post. "Where's the justice? . . . This is a total disgrace and an affront to the victims and the safety of the public."

It's also how the Cuomo administration does business.

Of course, if a murder struck close to home for Cuomo, things would be different. But politicians are rarely affected by the policies and laws they make [Google: Obamacare and Congress]. They're even allowed insider trading information because they're above the laws that we must abide by.
