Low income Somers Cove, bring down all the trash. Probably the same dude that was involved in the shooting a while back, all drug related

Build a ghetto and criminals will come to prey on the poor and ignorant.

And they’re housed at taxpayer expense, including the independence card, WIC, healthcare, and transportation- But no upstanding witness will come forward. You would think that they don’t want crime in their neighborhood either, or is that just me?

Lowlife drug dealer and 20 witnesses who won't say a thing. That's what I get from this,. And, what the residents of Somers Cove Apartments get is socialist rule over them by their holt drug lord and supplier.
Everything's nice now in the "Neighborhood."

Sentenced to 10 years for drug offense. Reduced by, presumably, local court to 5 years and then released with just over 19 months actually served.

This guy was back on the street courtesy of the court, and is apparently such a fine citizen that 20 witnesses have amnesia. Thanks, judge!

12:07 No not thank you judge. They have nothing to do with early release. The blame lies solely on the back of the democrat controlled state house. It was one of that nasty pathetic loser omalley's policies. Democrats voters all of them incredibly ignorant lying wastes of air themselves fell for the nonsense. They were letting out prisoners left and right and because prison populations got lower the loser democrat voters equate that to crime being down.

Imagine that. A drug dealer is sentenced to 10 years, reduced to 5 years, serves 19 months. Goes back to his old address and gets shot. I'm sure he was an innocent bystander just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Nothing to see here!
