    Feds are in yonkers, of course, we have CONVICTED FELONS walking around wearing suits. Nick Spano go crawl into a hole….only yonkers

  3. none of your business

    some advice
    if you attend this meeting: don’t give your name.
    don’t say a word. listen to what these scumbags have to say.
    don’t sign any attendance sheet.
    don’t give your name.
    if you must ask anything ask for the contact information of the FEDS.
    trust nothing they tell you.

  4. Dirty Keith Olson Yonkers PBA

    They don’t have to look for too much probable cause. All they have to do is go down to Internal Affairs and start their with the two fat boys, Olson and Pataky.
    Then they can go around the department and ask some personnel about the break-ins, the unauthorized investigations, and tampering with evidence. Who knows they may even find what happened to Wayne’s and Jimmy’s money. The best place to start is right smack in the middle of the fat man’s office. Maybe they will even find some of the official police files and logs that Olson and his dirty bag cronies like John Mueller and Brian Moran made available during their warrant-less searches of city property. Talk about criminal dirt bags.

    1. ?

      This ain’t about Olsen or your fucking overtime sweetheart. This is about your department being a corrupt bunch of mother fuckers.

      1. no worry - we got pictures

        p0liticians like spano who live in glass houses shouldn’t throw stones

        and they should close the blinds

        our pics are juiccccceeeeeeeee

  5. cant-breathe

    Cant breathe…because that so called victim has been the end result of no consequence driven passive society. Rules and laws are interpretive based on liberal conditions that base civility on a “nanny state” as opposed to human choice and consequence. Current consensus rather blame anything and anyone EXCEPT the law breakers. Oh well, thank God most citizens are still law abiding, for now.

  6. Hezi the hack

    Breaking news? Maybe to you hezi, but the fact they the DOJ has been investigating the Yonkers Police for about seven years doesn’t meet the definition of breaking news by anyone’s standards. Also the fact that they’ve been here so long and haven’t found the ” pattern and practice” of excessive use of force tells us all something, it’s not happening.

  7. holy shit batman

    its been reported the EYE IN THE SKY WAS COMING well now there here. to all of yonkers finest THANK YOU for doing a dangerous thankless job day In ,,and day out. hats off to you .may you stay safe prosper and enjoy the fruits of your labor.to the rest good luck.

  8. John Khader

    The Feds need to take a tour of Yonkers late at night and see what type of animals roam our streets they have no respect for police or any else if that matters. You don’t even have to wait for night time go to getty square after school hours look at the kids getting off the buses starting fights with each and having no respect in general, my opinion Yonkers police do a great job with what resources they have God bless them and keep them safe from the savages that roam the streets.JK

  9. Remember...

    Many men and women honor the blue uniform to protect and serve mankind
    Don’t let a few to dishonor the rest of the brave ones that put their lives on the line to protect and serve us everyday.
