The latest illegal-migrant atrocity should remove any doubt: It’s beyond time to end sanctuary-city policies in New York.
The appalling heinousness of that atrocity is simply unimaginable, even by Gotham standards.
Police say Sebastian Zapeta-Calil, a Guatemalan illegal migrant, set a sleeping woman ablaze aboard an F train at the Coney Island station, then watched in satisfaction as she burned alive.
A medieval level of savagery — and a predictably sick outcome of woefully misguided policies that have made the city a haven for border jumpers.
Including gangbangers, human traffickers, drug dealers, street thugs and Hannibal-Lecter level psychos like the monster who enflamed this harmless woman minding her business on a subway car.

Why target sanctuary-city rules?
Consider: Zapeta-Calil crossed the border in Arizona and 2018 and was promptly deported (thanks to the policies in place under then-President Donald Trump).
