“Will it be full deterrence? I doubt it,” said the victim, Noreen Mallory.
Victim Noreen Mallory — who was brutally pummeled last Valentine’s Day by Abdellahi Mohammed at the Wall Street subway station — said she doesn’t believe punishments like her attacker’s will stop violence underground.
“He should serve the maximum sentence of seven years for assaulting an on-duty transit worker who was just doing her job.” Mallory gave the court a detailed play-by-play of how Mohammed, 26, grabbed her by the collar while punching her in the face before he eventually pushed her into the side of a service train — only to then slam her into the ground.Mallory suffered a crushed left eye socket and a black eye, and she said that the brutal assault left her with physical, emotional and psychological distress — unable to return to work and a loss of income.
Meanwhile, Mohammed, who wore a tan prison jumpsuit, didn’t apologize for the attack when given the chance to speak before Manhattan Supreme Court Judge Michele Rodney.
