Getting Felt up at 7-Eleven: Not So Fun

Written by Kari Milchman on February 19, 2007. Posted in Crime Watch OTDT, Posts

NYPD Likes To Touch You Funny

Written by Kari Milchman on February 19, 2007. Posted in Crime Watch OTDT, Posts

It’s good to know New Yorkers aren’t suffering the indecency of stop-and-frisks no reason. Oh wait, scratch that.

Kids Learning Bad Lessons At School

Written by Kari Milchman on February 15, 2007. Posted in Crime Watch OTDT, Posts

It seems in addition to trading in the classic doobie for prescription drugs, the city’s kids have traded in stealing bills from mom’s purse for grand larceny. The Preliminary Mayor’s Management Report released yesterday noted that major felonies committed in classrooms rose 21 percent from last year. The most popular crime is stealing teachers’ pocketbooks
