where is the Mug Shot ?
Has great potential in democrat politics, already knows how to steal money.
An 18 year old out on bail….looking like he making some great decisions on his future..
Who leaves $40k sitting out in plain view in their car??
No bail this time. He is crying for help!
Kind of curious about why someone keeps 40K in their car? But more importantly Rockland and the surrounding communities are a mess with these bands of punks. The teenagers know there is nothing local PD can do, youth center? then the dems and aclu whine about that. This one must have forgotten he is 18 now.
Put him next door in Thomaston for FIVE YEARS .
See if that smartens him up .
weird the same town with the big sex parlor bust had this happen… the 40k is the real story here…. rockland has had had youth problem for years…
That whole family is pretty messed up. His sisters are deadhead burnouts and into weird group sex stuff. Apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.
