Break-in, assault in East Rock home
I loathe speeding and often wish I had a gun when out walking the dog, but this is not comparable. This crime was hardly one of disregard or not paying attention. It is vicious, mean, done with full consciousness and planned. My deepest sympathies to the victim.
terrible,horrible,sad and senseless.
avoidable but eerie, creepy yet suspicious, especially with my phone call to the New Haven Police dept.
they told me (on phone) that people have a right to loiter (hartford disagrees)
but that is a question for Smuts,Paul Wessel,Henry Fernandex and Julio Gonzalex before them.
henry was loitering about an Advocate box
a major push by certain people to use the advocate box and throw the paper around,i removed them and they are starting on the register box at 4 am.
How much luck would Mr.Liu the neighbor
(or hao sorry) have with his phone call to the police about kids
i have adults loitering and pushing their chosen crook/druggie/roofer/carpenter and all around felon.
because one thing leads to another
DeStefano: Crime, education priorities
Speeders and red-light runners are a far, far more serious threat to neighborhood safety, because they are much more likely to cause severe injury and death. Anyone traveling even 1MPH in excess of the speed limit, or running a light, should be given a $1,000 fine.
Also, some of the people speeding through this neighborhood are criminals. Cracking down on traffic violations is a more effective way of cutting down on crime than random police patrols can ever be. Not respecting the speed limit, and putting other people's lives in jeopardy as a result, is a good predictor of other antisocial behaviors.
