Hey Revis why don’t you tell the Sgt. what you said to his face, yeh I didn’t think so. Real tough guy.
I heard the LT pee’ed himself while writing this press release. Just thinking about those brave cops chasing that armed man caused a trinkle of pee to run down his leg.
Typical…a Amicone lapdancer. Hey, I just saw a Guardian box!
Mary Joe Solicito wouldn’t know the
first thing about making an arrest.
He’s been hiding inside for years
and they STILL promoted her.
Yo, Solicito: Get off your ass, grow some balls, and arrest that CRIMINAL on the 2nd floor.
I could swear a saw a cop on nepperhan avenue that was talking to himself and twitching a lot. I kind of felt bad for him, I wonder if he was having a bad day or if he is like that all the time. Oh well, I guess it’s nice that even the police hire special people like that.
I agree, a totally useless
do-nothing LT. and a even more
useless DET.SGT. McCormack who
if you ask any one in the YPD
they can’t remember this clown
EVER doing police work. Now he
is E.H.’s skirt wearing secretary.
I hear he makes a nice cup of
coffee.
No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No, No I don’t care, I don’t care
Geez now we have a Lt. issuing press notices. Just how many supervisors does the YPD have, hiding inside when they should be on the street doing police work. The police dept is not undermanned, its improperly staffed.
Gotta love these Police Blotters.
Are you ever gonna arrest the REAL criminal on the 2nd Floor?
Didn’t think so…
