TRANS MIGRANT GETS SWEETHEART PLEA DEAL IN RAPE OF 14 YEAR OLD BOY INSIDE NYC BODEGA BATHROOM

An illegal trans immigrant admitted Tuesday to molesting a 14-year-old boy inside the bathroom of a Manhattan bodega last year — but won’t have to do any more time behind bars.

Nicol Alexandra Contreras-Suarez, a 31-year-old Colombian immigrant who was born male, pleaded guilty to second-degree rape in Manhattan Supreme Court for sexually assaulting the teen in East Harlem last year and was promised a sentence of just six months — which has already been served. That means the creep will be free to go at sentencing on April 27 — unless federal immigration agents are there to slap on the cuffs again to deport them.
