Guess Hartford State's Attorney Gail Hardy must have been out of town that day. Otherwise would have taken 6 months for an arrest warrant to be even read by Gail. Or she would have just denied it without a weapon. Hartford residents you got lucky on this one.
Im sure he will engage the police in a life threatening car pursuit. Criminals dont care much for safety. Maybe he could attend the next council meeting as an escort for jennings, and why not a dispatch job too ....
With 39 arrests (Just in Hartford), WHY was he still on the street?
I hear that Pedro is looking for another aide in his staff to handle community relations...this criminal would fit in perfectly with Pedro.
I read in the Courant last week that HPD busted 10 Prostitutes, Pedro should have told them to let that ride, because he is quilty as a grown man of doing the same!
Again he is the "do as I say, not as I do" Mayor.
Kevin, I hope at least one of those Prostitutes read your blog and their Attorney in gest brings Pedro's loose, lieing lifestyle into question as part of their defense or plea.
