I’m telling Kevin, give it about 5 more years and your gonna see one of those jeeps with a machine gun mounted in the bed,, looks like a third world country already , might as well go all the way
Well at least Michael Munroe was smart enough to wear his nice white collared shirt for court in the am. He definitely deserves a second chance right off the rip.
This current command staff (who are clueless when it comes to violent crime) are completely ignoring all the indicators of what’s to come when it gets warm. It is going to be a very long violent summer as it’s already raining shell casings.

Naw, not really. The most threatening events now are the increasing catastrophic car accidents occurring everywhere. Trees are down. Utility poles are slashed in half. Iron fences bashed in. I finally saw my first accident on the Berlin Turnpike when a driver was captivated by the accident in my lane heading south, took his eyes off the road and smashed into the cars in front of him causing a three to four car pileup. I was about to lend assistance but police were already there on the other side of the road.
It’s bad and not enough focus is being placed on solutions.
Addendum to my first comment: I used to ask the officer stationed at NRZ meetings about data on these auto accidents. Every time I asked, they referred me to DOT. I thought car accidents that were caused by DWI and texting were criminal yet no officer ever addressed them. I just found it strange that they would pass the buck onto DOT.
Lime Bike pulling out of Hartford. Comical. The barbarians can’t have anything nice. Constantly stealing and damaging bikes. I often see Lime bikes painted black and fraudulently capsized. Lime bikes trashed and taken for parts then dumped. True sign of what a dump that city is.
Another shady deal for that vin spot. Just another example of the good ole boys mantality at hpd. Our next mayor will curb the nonsense come late november ....
Yes, we definitely need a new mayor, new leadership. I am not sure why the nonsense continues. Cissero has copious hostile work place complaints against him, yet the powers to be keep him there. Get a clue guys, this employee is a real problem.
