A week or so after another young person is murdered in her council district, Bonnie Russell is no where to be found. Her assistant attended last night's community meeting and offered Ms Russell's advice that none of this would be happening if we would all just form block clubs.
Note to Russell: We are watching and calling. The problem here is we call and the police don't come. Block clubs can't fix that.
Beleaguered Officer Stabler was there. Officer Stabler, I know you don't hear this enough, so here goes: We are incredibly grateful for the officers of E District. We think you guys do a great job with the limited resources you have been given. Our problem is with your boss(es).
Evidently, more than a few people in City Hall think that the Halloween weekend here was a success. Sure, someone died, but we caught the killer less than a week later. None of this could have been prevented, just an unfortunate accident (not).
According to Officer Stabler there were 8 to 10 "parties" the size of the one at 112 Lisbon going on in the Heights that night. Several thousand kids from high schools and colleges around the WNY swarm the Heights and are sold all the alcohol and other consumables they can consume. Yeah, no one could predict a bad outcome from that.
Brown's complete absence and out-of-touch response to the death of another young person in the Heights this leads us to believe that he has also been kidnapped by aliens and has joined his councilwomen on Alpha Centauri.
Note to the Aliens: If you are going to kidnap politicians, please take the entire politician. Leaving a bunch of Edgar Suits behind to do your bidding is just not fair.
