Comment:

Didn't Terry Betteridge Use To Hire A Greenwich Police Officer To Sit In His Store?

Betteridge Jewelers Is Only A Couple Of Blocks From The Greenwich Police Palace.

Terry Betteridge Is Whining, As If, His Store Was In A High Crime Area Like The Byram.

Apparently, The Byram, Cos Cob, Riverside And Old Greenwich Sections Of Town Are Not Secure Since There Is Not Any Police Officers On Those Street Corners.

The Betteridge Store Was Burglarized From The Street A Few Years Ago. They Cut A Hole In The Glass In Front Of The Store And Stuck Their Hand In And Took Jewelry. This Was All Done In Plain View Of The Traffic Cop!!!!

Greenwich Needs Aggressive Neighborhood Crime Patrols, Not Greenwich Avenue Crossing Guards
