Geneva, N.Y. — A member of the Geneva City Council is facing charges in connection to a multi-agency narcotics drug trafficking probe.
Ahmad Whitfield, 45, was arrested Wednesday after selling cocaine/fentanyl to another person, according to New York State Police. It came during an investigation in the Geneva area conducted by the NYSP Violent Gangs and Narcotics Enforcement Team, the Geneva Police Department, the Ontario County Sheriff's Office and the Seneca County Sheriff's Office.
Whitfield was charged with criminal sale of a controlled substance and two counts of criminal possession of a controlled substance, state police said. He was taken to the Ontario County Jail for arraignment.
The City of Geneva released a statement saying it would be "inappropriate for city officials to comment" on the case.
The City of Geneva is aware of the arrest of City Councilor Ahmad Whitfield earlier today. This matter is currently before the courts, and it would be inappropriate for City officials to comment on the details.
Councilor Whitfield, like all individuals, is entitled to the presumption of innocence and due process under the law. The City of Geneva is not a party to this matter, and City government will continue to conduct its business professionally and without interruption.
“This is a serious situation, and it is important that we respect the legal process and the rights of all involved,” said Mayor James Cecere. “My responsibility, and the responsibility of this Council, is to ensure that the City continues to serve our residents with stability, transparency, and professionalism.” Any future actions, if required, will be addressed in accordance with the City Charter and New York State law.

HOORAY LEOs but WTF! How do these scumbags get to these positions?
Another Irishman bites the dust.
I’ve been to and through Geneva.
I’m not shocked, either.
The city’s a mess.
DNA evidence exonerates man accused of rape in Geneva
Same guy. Wonder if that case needs to be revisited.
Without Diddy$, education $ and Hollywood $ the democrats have to become better drug dealers.
Not just Dems...

No but the vast majority are Dems especially in blue states/cities.
Happens a lot, urban decay, only the amish are left to vote. Marion Barry is a great example. As mayor, caught taking bribes and smoking crack, DC re-elects him and puts up a statue in his honor.

Whitfield is barely literate as well and was once “homeless” ™ which is synonymous with a druggie. He also beat rape charges back in 2016.
Geneva used to be a nice little town. Now, half of it’s a collegetown (and we all know what kind voters that means-See, Ithaca) and the rest is ghetto.
Did Maduro sell the drugs to this guy? Once again, US lies, people die.

A lot of interesting info in this video

I had daily interaction with one of Mr. Whitfield’s male relatives that rented a property. He was a jail advocate for the incarcerated. Various baby mamas and their offspring would reside there. Massive amounts of traffic and people of the dreg variety. Not shocked at this arrest.
GUY GOES FROM HOMELESS TO MEMBER OF CITY COUNCIL??????
WTH???
I got married in Geneva - late 70’s
It was a dump even then - except for the part immediately around the college
“homeless” ™ that’s code for uncivilized druggie who refuses to play by the rules.
Yep. I have rental property about 20 minutes North of Geneva and I will hold out until I find a responsible tenant which are few and far between these days. Akin to looking for a purple striped unicorn who speaks Norwegian.
The state incentives bad behavior and irresponsibility. I go usually 6 months before I find such a unicorn. I’d rather it go vacant than rent to a miscreant.
As a Hobart ‘80 . . . used to be? It was a lot nicer a few years ago when I last visited.
We didn’t even have a Chinese restaurant until my senior year!
