Gounardes’ Bail Reform Allowed Kahlil Ivey to Have Been Released on Friday and Hurt This Coney Island Family
On Friday, two women in Coney Island and two children were sent to the hospital after a carjacking. (Story here)

Yesterday, the Gounardes family celebrated Father’s Day and the senator shared pictures on social media.
The family involved with the carjacking were at two different hospitals (the children were at Coney Island Hospital and the mother was at Lutheran….and yes, it’s called Lutheran in the news although it has been renamed NYU Langone Hospital).

We agree that bail reform was necessary so that people didn’t get stuck in the system due to poverty.
But something needs to be done because the system is allowing these criminals to become repeat offenders in Brooklyn. Arrests are not being taken seriously now.
When politicians change the law and they see things are going berserk, why haven’t corrected the loopholes in the bill that allow criminals to be repeat offenders?
Commission Shea has repeatedly called for politicians to make a change to the bail law because there are too many criminals abusing the system.
Assemblywoman Mathylde Frontus and Senator Andrew Gounardes have ignored Commissioner Shea and refuse to work with law enforcement on correcting this issue.
Arrested and released the day before

This is what zero consequences looks like

Three separate families impacted

This young family didn’t deserve to be the collateral damage of a loophole law.

Congratulations to the new owner – we wish you a lot of success in this fun place!

Happy Fathers Day, Bay Ridge!
Happy Father’s Day to all the Dads in Bay Ridge.
To all the people who lost their fathers this year and this is a hard day, know that the grief never fully goes away if you had a really great Dad.
At the end of my father’s life, he wasn’t able to speak, but he could respond. I sat for many hours talking to him in the hospital. At the time, I thought being at the hospital and not seeing any changes was torturous. It’s something I am very grateful for now.

Sector D of the 68th Precinct Took This Car Off the Street
When this driver thought it was OK to terrorize Bay Ridge driving recklessly with a loud muffler, ? plate, tinted windows, numerous suspensions and evade the ?, your Steady Sector D said ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Knowing him and his car, they did not rest until both were off the streets pic.twitter.com/C75DPq6YZu
— NYPD 68th Precinct (@NYPD68Pct) June 19, 2021

The 68th Precinct took this car off the street.
This problem has been left for many years so one car off the street isn’t going to make a difference.
They probably have to take about 10 cars off the street to send the message that Bay Ridge isn’t a racetrack.
