THANK YOU NYPD OFFICERS EDWARDS AND NAVARRO

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton-on-Hudson: our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship --- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

To the Editor,

I would like to publicly commend the two NYPD officers, Assistant Chief Aaron Edwards and Sgt. Luis Navarro, who ran towards two ISIS-inspired terrorists as they launched dangerous explosive devices at members of the public in front of New York’s Gracie Mansion on March 7th. Avowed ISIS supporters Emir Balat and Ibrahim Kayumi attempted to detonate deadly bombs with the goal of inflicting mass casualties when Asst. Chief Edwards and Sgt. Navarro intercepted and tackled them, stopping their actions.

Both officers are being commended and recognized as heroes within and beyond New York. One can’t help but be amazed when reading about Asst. Chief Edwards’ motivations for becoming a police officer. On September 11, 2001, when he was a young college student, he witnessed police running into the burning Twin Towers to rescue people. On that day, he decided he wanted to help protect the people of NYC.

There is a fantastic photograph of Asst. Chief Edwards leaping over a metal barrier to stop the bombers. The picture is worth a thousand words: descriptors of how selfless and brave the officers of the NYPD can be.

God bless him and all of the brave police officers who put themselves in the way of terrorists so that we may walk the streets safely. Sadly, the present climate of New York City could breed more unfortunate situations, but one finds reassurance in the words of Asst. Chief Edwards, as he stated, “You’re going to be watching a little closer, especially in the near-term, any events that’s coming up, we got to have a little more resources out there for them.”

Thank you,
Jessica Dieckman

ON THE HOUSE FLOOR, CONGRESSMAN LAWLER RECOGNIZES THE LIFE OF SHERIDAN GORMAN

Federal workers should never be caught in the middle of political disagreements.......

But what has stayed with me most this week is Sheridan Gorman.

Sheridan was 18 years old, from Yorktown Heights in the Hudson Valley. She was a student, an athlete, and someone with her whole life ahead of her, deeply loved by her family, her friends, and her community. Her loss is an unimaginable tragedy, and for those who knew her best, it is a void that can never be filled.On the House Floor, I had the honor of recognizing Sheridan’s life and sharing her story with the country, not as a headline, but as a young woman whose future mattered. My family and I continue to keep the Gorman family in our prayers as they endure this heartbreaking loss.

JOHN SARCONE IN THE NEWS---ROME MAN PLEADS GUILTY TO FEDERAL COERCION, CHILD PORN CHARGES

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton-on-Hudson: our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship --- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.



ALBANY, NY (WUTR/WFXV/WPNY) — A Rome man has pleaded guilty to federal charges of coercing a minor and child pornography charges.

46-year-old John Secor of Rome pled guilty on Wednesday, March 25 to the charges in federal court. He now faces a combined sentence of 30 years to life in prison.

“This defendant’s actions were calculated, predatory, and profoundly disturbing. He targeted a minor through Facebook, manipulated her, and sought to exploit her for sexual purposes,” United State Attorney John Sarcone said in a statement. “Let me be clear: anyone who engages in this kind of conduct will be aggressively investigated, prosecuted, and punished to the fullest extent of the law. Social media companies must also recognize their responsibility in preventing such exploitation on their platforms and take stronger, proactive measures to protect vulnerable users. I thank HSI and the New York State Police for their commitment to keeping our communities safe.” MORE AT Rome man pleads guilty to federal coercion, child porn charges
