19 year old Jacob Herbert of Clarence, died in my neighborhood this weekend. He was stabbed to death while leaving one of those quaint little house parties that happen from time to time around here.
Jacob Herbert,19, was stabbed multiple times in what police believe was a fight that erupted as people were leaving a large house party. The stabbing occurred around 4:30 a. m. Buffalo News
I saw this comment on WGRZ and I have to say it mirrors exactly the experiences of everyone around here. Only most often, you can't even get the cops to show in the first place.
There was a house party with about 200 students on the front lawn and the COPS WERE THERE at 1:30 and the COPS DIDN:T STOP THE PARTY and the party continued. This could've been avoided if the cops broke up the party and told people to leave. OH and guess what! THere is a camera that my tax dollars paid for on the corner--- and they can't use that for anything or evidence bc thats where the incident took place. THey have to use the stores camera! The detectives have been on this street all day! They should talk to the cops that were at the party at 1:30~!
How many more kids have to die before Mayor Brown admits that there is a problem here and asks for outside help, like maybe from the State Police. And for that matter where are all our fine government officials while all this is happening? We have City Councilwoman Bonnie Russell so MIA that we're tempted to offer a reward to anyone who has spotted her, Mayor Brown hiding from the FBI, Sheriff Tim Howard refusing to provide patrols to the City because he's mad at a County Legislature's boyfriend, and County Executive Chris Collins searching for the third anitchrist.
To any lawyers reading this: Residents of the Heights have been notifying both UB and the City, repeatedly, for years, that these "house parties" are accidents/manslaughter/murder waiting to happen. Have at it, guys.
