Really? You publish a story about a ridiculous minor drug charge? That’s what people will see when they Google this girl’s name, forever. Nice work.
I agree with Chas. Why does this crappy little
Town of Nassau post pictures of innocent people, prior to being adjudicated?
Answer; because the people are usually poor and have no means to stick up for themselves. Bullied by the local yokel police who have nothing better to do.
Better watch out if you have an “unsafe tire” in the Village of Nassau.
The charges are allegations that havent been proven.
It serves no purpose, other than one sick individuals penchant for shaming people. I say sue the village for slander.
Avoid Nassau village if you can. There’s nothing there anyway.
Only some rogue security guards that pass for police officers.
With all the bad press cops get lately, this just reinforces that poor image.
