A Brooklyn judge is taking fire for letting an alleged gangbanger caught with a stolen firearm back on the street without having to post bail but only write a homework assignment on gun violence.

Law enforcement sources told the New York Post on April 19 that Judge Ellen Edwards rejected prosecutors’ calls for 18-year-old Ismail Abraham to post bail after being caught on video carrying a loaded, stolen revolver.
