WHY ARE THE DIRECTORS OF THE SARATOGA RACE TRACK THE MIGRANT WHO STABBED A WOMAN WORKED AT DONATING TO FRIENDS FOR KATHY HOCHUL COMMITTEE?
On October 9, 2026, David Cruz Torres, 36, originally from Michoacán, Mexico, was arrested in Saratoga Springs after allegedly slashing a female coworker's throat while she was driving him home. The woman suffered life-threatening injuries. He was charged with second-degree attempted murder and criminal possession of a weapon.
The man worked at a restaurant in town and was here on a work visa, which may have been expired, but he was brought here on a work visa for the Saratoga Race Track.
The attack was horrific and the woman almost died.
Here are the words from the victim's own Gofundme:
"On Friday evening, October 9, 2026, Olivia Neri, Joanne’s daughter, a college student, was finishing up work when her life changed in an instant. After getting into her car, Olivia noticed an employee standing nearby and offered him a ride. As they approached the area where he asked to be dropped off, he suddenly pulled out a knife. In that instant, Olivia said his face seemed to change completely, morphing into something she could only describe as demonic. He attacked her inside her car.
Olivia was stabbed, strangled with her seatbelt, and suffered devastating injuries before managing to unbuckle herself, open the door, and escape the moving car to get help. Bleeding heavily, she pressed her sweater to her neck and called out to bystanders until help arrived. She was taken to a local hospital, received a blood transfusion, and was then airlifted to Albany Medical Center, where she underwent emergency surgery.
The attack lacerated Olivia's left vertebral* artery and left a wound across the front of her neck that nicked her trachea. Her left ear was also sliced and later required plastic surgery. Surgeons were able to repair the artery, but blood flow through that area is still reduced, and she will need blood thinners as she heals."
It's made locals question why the race track, which generates over $1 billion in annual revenue each year, would resort to bringing foreign workers on immigration visas when there's many locals who could benefit from high paying, quality jobs at the race track.
The answer may be in the donations of seditious Governor Kathy Hochul.
Almost all of the members of the New York Racing Association, the body that controls the Saratoga Races, donate to the Friends For Kathy Hochul Committee.

$147,000 IN POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS IDENTIFIED!
That's $147,000 appearing in the campaign-finance records I've examined involving just five members of NYRA's board.
The Board has enough money to donate massive amounts to Kathy Hochul, as well as live in expensive locales far from the race track such as Manhattan and Palm Beach; but for some reason has to bring in H1B visa workers
Even worse, the Saratoga Race Track is bringing these workers in from Mexico so they can pay them the bare minimum wage at $17 an hour, according to advertisements I found in Spanish.
Meanwhile, other local businesses have no problem hiring Americans at $25 to $30 an hour.
How many Americans will be stabbed by migrants due to the greed of New York Democrats?
