Sounds like a kidnaping. Wonder if it is connected to other crimes in the neighborhood. I hope the 108th knows what it is doing.

I know this is a stretch, but could it be the same guys who killed Lou Rispoli? I have a feeling these creeps hang out near parks which are isolated at night.

What the hell is happening to our neighborhood/surrounding area?
Why aren’t any of these on the news? When someone walks in and shoots someone suddenly it is terrorism and gun violence and a lot of nonsense reporting, yet when someone is stuffed into trunk or when someone is abducted and tortured, it is not news. Media is really sucking up to stories that have political connection.

Have you guys watched good wife?
