A man seen punching an elderly Asian woman more than 100 times and stomping on her body in a surveillance video in New York has been sentenced to more than 17 years in state prison
“Today we close a chapter on one of the most violent and shocking hate crimes that we’ve seen in Westchester County,” Westchester County District Attorney Miriam Rocah said in a news conference. Tammel Esco, 42, pleaded guilty in September to assault in the first degree as a hate crime based on an agreement with prosecutors, Rocah said. He was sentenced to 17.5 years in state prison and will be subject to five years of post-release supervision, she said.
Video shows the woman walking into her apartment building vestibule and putting her keys in the door as Esco enters the building behind her and punches her in the head, knocking her to the ground. After she fell to the ground, Esco punched her more than 100 times, stomped on her body repeatedly and spit on her, according to the felony complaint. The woman suffered brain bleeding, and multiple facial fractures, among other injuries, prosecutors said.
