Paroled Murderer Robert McCain Arrested Again
Statement From County Executive Ed Day
“Once again, Robert McCain has proven exactly why he should never have been released.
This time, he is accused of threatening a Peekskill woman with death — telling her that her own mother wouldn’t find her body for a decade — and stealing her license plate. Earlier this year, he was arrested for groping another woman. The pattern is obvious, and it is dangerous.
These crimes are the direct consequence of the Parole Board’s reckless decision to free a convicted murderer with a known history of violence. They ignored the warnings of an entire community, and now innocent people are paying the price.
If any member responsible for that decision remains on the Board, I renew my call for their immediate resignation. Their failure endangered the public, and I will continue fighting for a justice system that puts victims and community safety first — not violent offenders.”
