Gounardes & Santosuosso Waited To Mention a Hate Crime That Happened Last Week!
Some of out local elected leaders are on social media every day playing politics, but not helping the community. On Friday, January 30th, several hate crimes happened in #BayRidge – one was towards a 12-year-old child! See the news:
A woman from Staten Island was arrested for the hate crimes. This is not the first time that a Staten Island resident has committed a hate crime in Bay Ridge. News:
Senator Andrew Gounardes and Councilwoman Kayla Santosuosso didn’t share that information until today when the news reported the story.
We shouldn’t be hearing THIS WEEK about a crime that happened last week. Parents have the right to know when crimes are happening, so they can use every precaution to keep their children safe.
Strangely, it’s five days later and the 68th Precinct did not log these as hate crimes. There are zero hate crimes for our area. We have several problems – not just social media politicians.
