Gang Awareness: Greenwich Police Chief David Ridberg Needs To Learn To Recognize The Signs Of Gang Activity


The Davis Avenue Are Has Around The Clock Drug Sales, Gang Graffiti Tags, Young Men And Teens Throwing Down Gang Signs, As Well As, Repeated, Escalating And Aggressive Behaviour Towards Law Enforcement.
The Only Argument Is Just How Embedded And Organized The Gang Culture Is In The Neighborhood That Is Just Blocks Away From Greenwich Avenue

The Greenwich Time Likes Referring To Gang Members Who Assault Police Officers As Just "Residents", Because They Don't Want To Upset Chief Ridberg Who Keeps Insisting That There Are No Gangs In Town.

Many Of The Gang Members And Some Of Those Arrested Are Not Even "Residents" At The Wilbur Peck Projects .....


If Greenwich Time Writer Lazy Meridith Blake
Is Affraid To Report All The Facts,

Then Greenwich Roundup Will Have To Tell
The Rest Of The Story:


Police, residents clash at Wilbur Peck

By Lazy Meredith Blake
Staff Writer

Violence erupted outside the Wilbur Peck Court public housing complex early Saturday morning, as police attempts to quell a late-night gathering descended into mayhem.

When the riot, which at its peak included more than 50 people, had finally been subdued after about an hour, five men were arrested and three police officers were injured.

Officers responded to the parking lot outside Building 1 at Wilbur Peck Court on Davis Avenue at 2:40 a.m. following reports of a loud and unruly group of about 12-15 people, according to police.


What Lazy Meridith Blake Fails To Report Is That
The Group Was An Affiliated Group Of Gang Members

"It was unlike anything that I've seen before," said Sgt. James Bonney, who responded to the call.

The incident began when officers arrived to disperse the crowd. Several members of the group began yelling profanities at them, Bonney said.

An officer approached Jorge A. Cardenas-Rey, 21, of 12 Wilbur Peck Court, one of the most vocal people, and asked for his identification, police said. As Cardenas-Rey went to reach into his pocket for his ID, he lunged at the officer in an attempt to take his police baton, police said.

A fight broke out between the officer and Cardenas-Rey, police said. The officer finally wrestled him to the ground, where he was able to handcuff Cardenas-Rey, according to the report.

As Cardenas-Rey was being handcuffed, a 17-year-old, whose name is not being released due to his age, picked up a large rock and attempted to strike the officer in the back of the head, police said. Police shocked the boy with a stun gun and arrested him.

Police Sources Complained To Greenwich Roundup That
The Incident Was Being Minimized By The Greenwich Police Department, Because Police Chief David Ridberg
Keeps Insisting There Are No Gangs In Town.

More officers were called to the scene as the crowd grew to more than 50 people. Several members of the group continued to incite others to attack the officers, police said, adding that dozens rushed the police vehicles.

After nearly an hour, the crowd finally dispersed, Bonney said.

"We probably could have arrested another 15 people, but we just didn't have enough officers," he said.

Three of the 12 responding officers sustained injuries ranging from a lacerated hand and a contusion on the head to a possible concussion, according to the police report. All received medical attention, but none were hospitalized, police said.

Greenwich Police Officers Say That They Are
Not Able To Speak Freely About
The Increasing Gang Violence In Town.

In all, five people were arrested and charged with inciting to riot and breach of peace.
When Cardenas-Rey sat in the back of the police car, he kicked and broke a window, Bonney said.

Cardenas-Rey was also charged with assault on peace officers, criminal mischief, interfering with an officer and criminal attempt at first-degree assault, according to the report. He is being held on a $250,000 bond.

The 17-year-old was also charged with assault on peace officers, interfering with an officer and criminal attempt at first-degree assault, according to the report. He was treated and released from Greenwich Hospital. He is being held on a $100,000 bond.

Police also arrested another three people who were allegedly instigating the violence: Daniel Steven Flores, 21, of 70 Wilbur Peck Court; Stephen Wells, 18, of 8 Booth Place; and Joseph Antanascio Carey, 19, of 97 Wilbur Peck Court.

Police Officers Tell Greenwich Roundup That
Jorge Cardenas-Rey Holds Some Type Of Leadership Position
In The Gang That Greenwich Police Chief
David Ridberg Says Doesn't Exist.

Further, Greenwich Police Officers Are Angry That It Was Not Released That Jorge Cardenas- was arrested on Valentines day morning and charged for a very similar incident that did not escalate in to an out of control situation.

In The Valentines Day incident Jorge Cardenas-Rey
was arrested for interfering with a police officer
and disorderly conduct.

Greenwich Police Officers say after that the Valentine's Day arrest, and many after other previous incidents, they have repeatedly complained that Gang activity is getting out of hand in the Davis Avenue Area.
But, Greenwich Police Chief David Ridberg just ignores their complaints

The 17-year-old was also charged with assault on peace officers, interfering with an officer and criminal attempt at first-degree assault, according to the report. He was treated and released from Greenwich Hospital. He is being held on a $100,000 bond.

Police also arrested another three people who were allegedly instigating the violence: Daniel Steven Flores, 21, of 70 Wilbur Peck Court; Stephen Wells, 18, of 8 Booth Place; and Joseph Antanascio Carey, 19, of 97 Wilbur Peck Court.

They were also charged with interfering with an officer and inciting injury to persons or property.

Carey was released on a $100,000 bond. Wells and Flores are each being held on $100,000 bond.

All five are scheduled to appear in state Superior Court in Stamford on March 23.

Some people in the group later went to Greenwich police headquarters and continued yelling at police, but no arrests were made, according to the report.

UPDATE #1
GREENWICH, Conn. - Greenwich police say three officers were injured and five men were arrested after members of an unruly crowd tried to attack police as they broke up the disturbance.
The incident early Saturday near the Wilbur Peck Court public housing complex involved at least 50 people at its peak. Police were called to the Greenwich complex early Saturday to disperse about 15 unruly people, but say the crowd quickly grew and some people rushed the police and their vehicles.
WWLP
Three of the 12 responding officers sustained injuries including cuts, bruises and a possible concussion.
All received medical attention, but none were hospitalized. Five people were charged with inciting to riot and breach of peace, including two who were charged with assault on a police officer.
Police say some people in the group later went to Greenwich police headquarters and continued yelling at officers, but no arrests were made. The incident remained under investigation Sunday.
Stamford Advocate
GREENWICH -- Violence erupted outside the Wilbur Peck Court public housing complex early Saturday morning, as police attempts to quash a late-night gathering descended into mayhem.

When the riot, which at its peak included more than 50 people, had finally been subdued after about an hour, five men were arrested and three police officers were injured.
UPDATE #2:
The Topix Message Boards Are Have Over 50 Comments About
The Story. Currently There Is A Debate Going On With One Person A Hand Full Of Current And Retired Greenwich Police Officers Who Regualrly Hang Out On The Message Boards And Opine On Greenwich.
The Last Comment In The Debate Was From esg:
esg said:
Here are some questions for all of those who rush to believe the police and quickly condemn the teen-agers. Were any of the suspects armed?
Did they brandish weapons towards the police in a threatening manner?
Did the police have previous credibility with the suspects or was there just tension and harassment?
Did the officers actually escalate the tensions rather than lessen the stress?
Do the cops have preconceived prejudice toward minority teens?
After all, remember the lawsuit a few years ago by five black officers and two Hispanic officers, which claimed there was a pattern of racial discrimination against minority members of the Greenwich police force and the public.
The lawsuit said supervising officers have made racist comments on a systematic and continuous basis and have tolerated such conduct and behavior from its officers.
The seven plaintiffs were Officers Terral Hardy, John Rodriguez, Scott Johnson, Carlos Franco, John Woodward, Robert Brown, and Vincent O'Banner.
God bless them for speaking out back then. Why is this unfortuante incident a surprise to anyone?
esg had started the debate with this comment:
esg said:
Maybe the racist comments here would be of interest to the U.S. Justice Department.
I hope they investigate not only this tragic incident but the overall way the Greenwich police relate to blacks and Latinos.
Perhaps many of the comments on this story are from current or former police officers in Greenwich.
Everyone in town knows the cops have one standard for the working class part of town and a different one for Round Hill Road, etc.
It only comes to light when a kid gets zapped by a taser at the high school or an insensitive, poorly trained police contigent can't relate to teen-agers hanging outside of their homes on a weekend night.
BPTPopo responded to esg with:
Let me set you straight.
The original complaint came from neighbors inside Wilbur Peck about drunken idiots screaming and yelling at 2:30am. They were asked nicely the first time to quiet down.
It was the second time that one decided to attack a cop and set the wheels in motion, not the other way around.
But you are right about one thing, it is difficult to relate to severely intoxicated idiots making a nuisance of themselves in the middle of the night.The vast majority of the residents are good people, much easier for a cop from a working class background to deal with.
As for the U.S. Justice Department, this is called free speech.
Retired GPD responded to esg with:
Dear Esg, why don't you research the Justice Dept.'s investigation of The Greenwich Police Dept. that came on the heels of the 4th of July near riot at Armstrong Court in 1994?
Townie responded to esg with:
Try thinking before you spew idiotic statements that have no basis in fact. Sounds like YOU are the one trying to make it a racial incident vs the fact that it was a drunk & disorderly disturbance that escalated into mayhem.
Later Rtired GPD Added:
OK, so maybe some of the comments ARE from former GPD officers (like myself) and current members.How about we wait and see if some of the offenders post a comment or two - that is, after they wake up or make bond.
I'm pretty sure their stories will reflect much of your biases.
It will be interesting to see how Terry Mardula and The Housing Authority handle this.
esg, In post 45 you were given the opportunity to tell us all how you would have handled this incident.We're still waiting. By the way, the lawsuit by the minority Officers has to do with promotions and job assignments. It has nothing to do with the way the public is treated.
Inciting a riot sec 53a-178: the actor advocates, urges or organizes six or more persons to engage in tumultuous and violent conduct of a kind likely to cause public alarm.

Greenwich Roundup Is Not Saying That Sgt. Bonney Is Not A Good And Dedicated Policeman. No Officer Bonney Lives In And Cares About Greenwich.
In Fact, Greenwich Roundup, Thinks Bonney
Is One Of The Best Police Officers In Greenwich.
Moreover, Bonney Has Proved Himself A Very Able Union Leader Who Taught Former First Selectman Jim Lash And The Previous Police Cheif A Thing Or Two
But This Is Not About How Good An Officer Or Union Leader Jim Bonney Is.
It Is About Hearst Newspaper Reporter Lazy Merideth Blake's Continual Failure To Be Impartial And To Seek Out And Listen To All Members Of Greenwich Society When She Reports In The Town.
This Is Why Greenwich Blogger Bill Clarke Calls The Paper The Yellowich Time.

Good luck with the career.
BPTPopo responed with:
Thanks. I should probably stay off here, but it's like an addiction to answer those who do not know of what they speak.
So many in Greenwich don't know how good they have it. It really is a great city with so many opportunities.
BPTPopo and other Greenwich Police Officers might be wise to monitor thier message activity so that it doesn't reflect poorly on the Greenwich Police Department and the town.
A couple of weeks ago three Harrison police officers have been suspended over racist and sexist comments on their Facebook pages.
The Harrison town attorney Bob Palladino , the Board of Commissioners and Police Chief David Hall had suspended the officers.
The town is still investigating and may eventually fire the officers.
Before the meeting the police chief had placed the three on modified duty.
One detective reportedly made watermelon and fried chicken jokes about President Barack Obama on the social networking site.
The detective and others reportedly ridiculed the Mayor Joan Walsh with sexual comments.
A former police officer who was recently fired and has filed lawsuits against the Police Department was the one who tipped off town Supervisor Joan Walsh that other officers were exchanging sexual jokes about her on their Facebook pages
Steven Heisler, who was fired last month after he was accused of covering up for suspended Officer Ralph Tancredi in a bar scuffle, said he shared some of the documents with Walsh last weekend.
The supervisor consulted lawyers to consider legal action.
Mr. Hessler might have even shared the documents with the Journal News, because the town moved quickly after news paper broke the story.
In less than 24 hours after the story broke on the front pages of the journal news the town scheduled special closed-door sessions and suspend Detectives Rich Light and Frank Massaro, Officer Mike DiLauria and Code Enforcement Officer Ed DiBuono.
Heisler said he first heard about the Facebook exchanges from Tancredi, who learned about them from friends in town.
The Facebook remarks were posted over the past several months by Light, Massaro, DiLauria and others. They include several racist remarks, some about President Barack Obama, and a series of exchanges in which they joke about having raunchy sex with the 74-year-old town supervisor joan Walsh.
Hessler said he felt feel the good cops and good citizens of this town need to have a voice without fear of retaliation.
Hessler said he was someone who has been retaliated against already and felt that he needed to be that voice. Hessler says he is in fear of further reprisals from the department.
Hessler asserted repeatedly the supervisor and taxpayers have the right to know what is being said by police officers on the town payroll.

You really can't pull a wad of money out on Greenwich Ave, being black, one day my brother was waiting for an officer to move so that he could park his car, and the officer asked what the f**k was he looking at, my brother said that he is trying to park, so after making more rude remarks the officer moved from blocking the parking space where my brother lived.
A while back, google it if you can, these teens talked to the Greenwich Time about being harrassed by the cops while sitting with their friends on the ave., it was on the front page

Somehow i think greenwich police didn't handle the situation very good because come on the greenwich police haven't done anything right ever.

America's Next Top Model Brawl in New York City




========================================================== Please send your comments, news tips and press releases to GreenwichRoundup@gmail.com or click on the comments link at the end of this post.

All across America there is a thin blue line that protects America from anarchy ........ and then there is Greenwich Poice Chief David Ridberg's mismanagement of the towns highly paid and well trained police department that is not allowed to go after drugs and gangs in Western and Central Greenwich.

Greenwich has patrolmen who used to be supervisiors in New York City, but came to Greenwich for the higher pay and benifits provided to patrolmen in Greenwich.

These new officers have a proven skill set of supressing drug activity on some of the meanest streets of of New York, bur Ridberg fails to deploy these assets in the Davis Avenue, Pemberwich Road and Byram areas.
