Bronx Judge Naita Semaj to be yanked off criminal cases: sources

The notoriously lenient Bronx judge under fire for putting an accused child-killer back on the street will be yanked off criminal cases and moved to civil court by next week, law-enforcement sources told The Post on Friday.

The move to pull Supreme Court Judge Naita Semaj from her current post comes as she battles an ongoing judicial probe into claims of abusive and unprofessional courtroom antics, as well as the controversy over her recent decision to free alleged killer stepdad Tyresse Minter without bail.

Minter was eventually put back behind bars with the help of an outraged Gov. Kathy Hochul.
