arrest on prospect ave and 7th

I hate to ruin your fun, but how do you know he is guilty of anything?

Call the precinct, and ask the clerk. Not sure if they'll give you the info, but its worth a try. Let them know you were a witness, but didn't get contact info from the arresting officers.

ugh Scarlett sorry to hear about that bullshit... but dude can be out as early as tuesday because of the holiday .. courts closed on monday.as for how long he will stay in jail depends on the charges and if they set a bail .. if no bail is set then when he goes to court on tuesday he can walk.. until his next court date

Scarlett-

Supreme has good advice re: the guy getting arraigned and then released on bail.

This map will help you figure out what pct you are in:

Once you call the pct to find out the name of the guy, you can go to this link to see if he is incarcerated.

http://iapps.courts.state.ny.us/webcrim_attorney/DefendantSearch

From there, you can get his docket number. Once you have his docket number, you can call the Kings Co. DAs office and state that you are willing to help them get him convicted on the most serious conceivable charge.

Or, you can just register on the above link so the system will email you once he gets out.

Oh Scarlett, I hope you are ok and safe. Don't listen to the the aholes that *think* they are anonymous and can attack people online. If there is anything I can do to help, call or email me. xoxo. Please do contact the police and follow Whynot's links above.

So I looked him up at that site- thanks whynot- and he has a pending misdemeanor case set for court in a few weeks. Would this encourage them to hold him longer? No way he has bail or anyone to bail him out. The charges are - I bet- disorderly conduct, destruction of public and private property, assault and who knows what else. Thoughts?

If said knucklehead is presently out on bail (or released on his own recognizance) for prior alleged offenses: Yes, the judge should make him at least have to post a bail (or larger bail....) this time around.

Although I know nothing about this incident, I predict he is one of the many characters that have long misdemeanor rap sheets, and are constantly in and out of jail. Without an involved victim, a lot of those charges you discuss often start out as felonies, then get pled down to a misdemeanors (hint: be as involved as you are brave enough to be!)

P.S. Glad you are somewhat ok Scarlett.

I am proud to report no one with my lastname is present at Rikers.

I hope that motherflower is someone's bitch right now.

If you have the docket number already call the arraignment part at criminal court and speak to the clerk. They may be able to give you the info or at least the ADA's name.

I hope that you are ok

People who are in Rikers are listed in this site, run by the Dept of Corrections:

http://nysdocslookup.docs.state.ny.us/

The link I posted above is maintained by the court system, so it is more concerned about what people are alleged to have done and their court dates ...whereas as the Corrections Dept site is more focused on who is presently staying in their "wonderful" accommodations.

I think it is safe to assume Rikers is "wonderful" whenever one sees a criminal run from the police, or resist arrest.

P.S. For fun, type in your last name in the Dept of Corrections site.

I am pleased to report that only FOUR people with my last name have recently gotten accused of a crime and had the pleasure of a stay in wonderful Rikers.

Scarlett, how are your namesakes doing?

Ack!

The link I provided previously was for the STATE Dept of Corrections facilities! The four characters with my last name are doing prison time, as opposed to jail time.

Here's the link that shows the guests of the NYC Dept of Corrections, which would include guests of Rikers.

Whoops.

P.S. No one with my last name is in Rikers, yes!
