   A deranged suspect accused of sucker punching a 57-year-old mother-of-   
   three and breaking her jaw was cut loose again by a Brooklyn judge even   
   after prosecutors upgraded the assault charge to a felony Wednesday.   
      
   Franz Jeudy, 33, remained on supervised release after he was indicted on   
   charges including second-degree assault – a bail eligible offense – more   
   than a month after he randomly attacked bus aide Dulche Pichardo in Crown   
   Heights, prosecutors said.   
      
   The Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office requested $25,000 cash bail or   
   $50,000 bond on the upgraded charges, but Brooklyn Supreme Court Justice   
   Matthew Sciarrino turned down that request.   
      
   Jeudy allegedly socked Pichardo in the face unprovoked, leaving her with   
   fractures on both sides of her face and knocking out several of her teeth   
   on March 24, prosecutors said.   
      
   After Pichardo was hit, she ran into her brother’s restaurant nearby and   
   pointed out the alleged attacker.   
      
   The sibling chased down Jeudy for several blocks and held onto him before   
   police arrived.   
      
   “Random attacks against strangers, especially women, are beyond senseless   
   and completely unacceptable,” District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said in a   
   statement.   
      
   “A grand jury that heard all the evidence returned an indictment for   
   felony assault and we will now seek to hold the defendant accountable, so   
   he will not repeat this outrageous and criminal conduct.”   
      
   Jeudy initially was slapped with a misdemeanor assault charge – that was   
   not bail eligible – before he was hit with the heftier criminal count that   
   could land him in jail for up to seven years if convicted.   
      
   He also is facing second-degree assault, third-degree assault and related   
   counts.   
      
   A review of the evidence and the extent of her injuries helped boost the   
   charges to a felony, the district attorney’s office said.   
      
   “This is terrible. I don’t want this to happen to anybody else,” Pichardo   
   told The Post in March.   
      
   A spokesperson with the Office of Court Administration referred The Post   
   to the court transcript when asked about Judge Sciarrino’s decision to   
   keep Jeudy out of jail ahead of trial. The transcript was not immediately   
   available.   
      
   Sciarrino faced heat last year after he ignored a prosecutor’s request to   
   keep a career criminal in jail and instead granted bail in an attempted   
   murder case.   
      
   The suspect, Ousmane Diallo, then allegedly wounded two in a shooting once   
   he was freed on $500,000 bond, authorities said at the time.
