https://www.yahoo.com/news/subway-music ... 15283.htmlNEW YORK - Iain Forrest was playing his electric cello last month at the 34th Street Herald Square Station in Manhattan when he was randomly attacked.
Police arrested 23-year-old Amira Hunter, in connection with the attack, but she was released without bail Friday.
The Post reported that Hunter has at least eight prior arrests, and that prosecutors argued for $15,000 cash bail or $45,000 bond, noting that she had failed to show up at three of her five court dates in other criminal cases last year.
Initially, the cellist said he would retire from performing in subway stations, but has since changed his tune.

Given her track record of arrests and with this latest attack, she should have been remanded.
It's crazy that they released her.

Bail was appropriate for her. Odd it wasn't enforced.
