I heard that President Obama is holding a press conference next week regarding the Sunnyside mugging. Another brainless comment from a Sunnyside Post reader.

justice will not be served unfortunately. They will be out in a couple of days and do it again to another poor victim! That’s just the way our system works!

Looks like the new police chief for the precinct is already getting the results….

Glad someone (Jimmy?) was able to make the changes at that level….
