YIKES! Freakin hotbed of corruption!
Lot of Kodadars in the Albany/Troy area.
A corrupt drug cop. Shocking.
I’ve been in Roanoke visiting family for the last month and have infrequent web access, so it was nice to see news from home here on FR.
Tell you what... if I could convince the Mister to sell the house PDQ and join me here I’d do it. Roanoke VA is much nicer than the Albany cess-pool area.
When I worked on the Fed Task Force doing Title 3 wiretaps, we used to say “It’s not a wire, until there’s a cop involved.”
Drug money gets everyone.
I went to school in Troy and actually lived in a brownstone apartment on Washington Park. Downtown was known to have male prostitutes and they would get taken for rides with local hoodlums posing as johns. They would rob them. And ofcourse, drugs were around. But, street gangs. Nah. Wow. If anything you'd think Troy would just be more gentrified and empty.
On another note, I do hear they have one of the best Farmer's Markets going.
