NY: Syrian wants to withdraw guilty plea in shoe beating death

Update April 29th:  He tried to get his guilty plea withdrawn but judge denies it, gets 18 years to life (yippee!), here.

Yesterday we reported on the Afghan refugee brothers (also in a NY suburban area) who used knives as a weapon of choice, while this evil Syrian beat his girlfriend to death with her shoe!

Here is the gist of the story, from Lohud (Journal News) again thanks to crime sleuth ‘pungentpeppers:’

How would you like this guy in your neighborhood?

A 66-year-old Syrian national will learn April 8 whether he can withdraw his guilty plea to beating his former girlfriend to death with her shoe in her Wesley Hills bedroom or face 18 years to life in prison.

A decision expected Tuesday has been adjourned for Riad Dib as lawyers for the prosecution and defense file legal papers with Rockland County Court Judge William Nelson.

Dib pleaded guilty in September to murdering 68-year-old Cecile Garbarino, whose battered and bloody body was found Jan. 25, 2013. Dib and Garbarino had broken off their relationship.

[….]

Dib, who made a 911 call to report Garbarino’s death, beat her for more than two hours, crushing bones in her face, Ramapo police said. When she tried to use the telephone to call for help, police said, Dib punched and kicked her repeatedly, cracking her ribs and causing internal injuries.

Who is this murderer and how did he lie his way into the US?  We don’t really know, but ‘pp’ found a few more articles that add to the mystery.

Garbarino, an elementary school secretary, suffered a two-hour-long “barbaric beating” before her death.

Here it is reported that he is a priest, which of course would mean he is a Christian Syrian, or says he is:

Police said Dib’s Syrian passport identified his profession as a priest. He has a permanent residency card dated 2006.

Then here he claims to have been a “judge” in Syria:

Police said they know little about Dib, who apparently told investigators he once served as a judge in his native Syria.

[….]

Police said he had an expired security guard license and ran a business called RD Distributors out of the Grandview address.

[….]

Police said the house was filled with Christian symbols.

Does no curious reporter ever ask how people like Dib got into America in the first place—that is always my number one burning question.

What LEGAL avenue did this monster use to migrate here and live among us?

Speaking of Syrians, I haven’t seen any news yet on how many the Obama Administration is going to allow into the US this year, have you?  Originally they talked about 2,000 but some of the contractors want 12,000 or more.

Brooklyn culture clash and settling scores the Middle Eastern way with arson

A Syrian immigrant has been arrested and charged with arson (the poor man’s WMD), accused of hiring a thug (a dumb thug!) to get even with neighbors who complained about his buses clogging their gentrifying neighborhood.

Just another of those hardworking immigrant ‘entrepreneurs’ for our multi-culty neighborhoods “Abdul” Mouna.

Since Syrians are so much in the news, reader ‘pungentpeppers’ sent along yet another immigrant entrepreneur crime story.

As usual, there is no mention of how, through what legal immigration loophole, Syrian immigrant, Abderraham “Abdul” Mouna, came to be running a bus business in New York.  Was he an asylee, did he come through one of our many investor visa programs, did a relative get him in?  Those are the sorts of questions mainstream reporters never seem to ask.

We are still looking for someone to create one internet site to gather all of the immigrant crime stories that come our way—until then we will post some crime stories here.   LOL! we like to provide balance to the usually mushy immigrant stories the mainstream media feeds us—you know like the immigrant-sees-first-snow stories!

From DNAinfo:

GOWANUS — A long-simmering dispute over idling buses on a quiet Gowanus block sparked a conflict that led to arson, authorities say.

The FDNY this week announced the arrests of Abderraham “Abdul” Mouna and Jose “Pancho” Andujar in connection with a May 8, 2013, arson.

Fire Marshal investigators say the two men conspired to set the blaze to retaliate against neighbors who complained that Mouna’s charter bus company left coaches idling for hours and parked illegally on the street. The target of the arson was a business owned by one of the people who complained.

[…..]

The building owner did not want to comment this week for fear of retaliation, but according to a criminal complaint filed with the Brooklyn District Attorney’s office, a rock was tossed through a plate glass window on the building’s first floor, then liquid accelerant was squeezed through the hole, followed by a book of matches and a lit cigarette.

The fire quickly went out, leaving only a scorched floor and no injuries, but locals were shocked.

They immediately suspected Mouna, neighbors told DNAinfo. He had been running his charter bus company on the block since about 2006 and had clashed with neighbors for years, said locals, who didn’t want to be named.

At first, the 53-year-old Syrian immigrant seemed to be a hardworking small business owner struggling to get by, residents said.

But, then things started to go wrong!  Read it all!

I have to laugh a little.  I’m betting many in this Brooklyn neighborhood are the kind of folks who would speak eloquently about how diversity is beautiful, just not in this case and in their neighborhood!

American-Arab Anti-discrimination Committee wants Temporary Protected Status for Syrians extended

Not just an extension of time to sign up (which doesn’t end until September anyway), but a whole new designation so all the newest Syrians who got into America since the first TPS was made available can sign up too.

They all want in now that amnesty appears to be on the way!

Here is the press release yesterday from the pro-Arab group.  By the way the first TPS for Syrians was supported by federal refugee contractors Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS) and the US Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI), as well as the lobbying arm for the contractors—-Refugee Council USA (RCUSA), here.*

This is what they are really after:

The first TPS designation required that the Syrians applying had to have been continually in the US prior to March 29, 2012 and apparently many more have come after that deadline.  They want to be sure to get all their nationals signed up!    The ADC doesn’t say this in their press release, you have to go to the linked pdf —a ten page document addressed to Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano—to get the fine points.

As we have pointed out on many previous occasions, most recently here, there is nothing temporary about Temporary Protected Status!

* Makes no sense to me why refugee contractors who must find work for legitimate refugees (who are really struggling) support amnesty (and they do!) and other job-stealing forms of immigration like TPS.  The only thing that makes sense is that they are in the business of supplying future voters for the Democrat Party and to hell with the well-being of the people in their care.
