don't feel bad for him jennifer.... really he is in the wrong - and so is the mistress.

Who I really feel for is the never mentioned ex-wife - who has to deal with backlash everytime an article like this comes out.

and if he wants to add woman beater to his bag of tricks - I wouldn't be surprised. Something else to add to his list.

oh-keep up with the threats- I feel all warm and fuzzy inside....

THE SILENCE IS DEAFENING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

JUST LIKE I FIGURED...

any one of you morons prefer to say anything to him in person go for it..he is guaranteed to beat you like a wet seal.......this includes perry chiaramonte....jackie curtis...wiseone,,,...just saying....john delsignore

Man I knew this was going to be STUPID when Staten Island and NYPD appeared in the first sentence.

I love how they say that this happened in 2005. You know what else happened in 2005 - Mario Buonviaggio GOT MARRIED! That's right - this was his mistress they are referring too people. Not just a girlfriend. Everyone says oh - the poor ex-girlfriend... well she was a HOMEWRECKER! But, needless to say the exwife is obviously much better off!

The woman is a homewrecker; what is the man?

This clown was with the NYPD for 17 years. As a NYPD sergeant, he should have been well aware of the consequences of committing credit card fraud. The NYPD is better off without lowlife scum like him.

Besides he'll still get a big NYPD pension and since he left the NYPD with a job-related disability, his pension will be all or mostly tax free.

Gothamist has been crashing my browser left and right lately, so add me to the list of aggravated readers!

@JDS: "The lawsuit in his back, feet, left hand and leg from injuries sustained while "protecting the public." What????

Sorry about the double posting, but all the ads and Twitter/Facebook/whatever mouse-over issues on Gothamist have been crashing my netbook lately. When I was just trying to post a single comment, my computer crashed 5 times!! Fortunately, no other website gives me these problems.

Make that "browser" not "computer."

We're aware of the issues, thanks, and we're trying to resolve them. Hopefully new tags for the ads will help.

There was a broken link code there. Fixed, thanks.

The lawsuit in his back, feet, left hand and leg from injuries sustained while "protecting the public."

Hah?

Ok sorry side tracking, but are these stupid Harry Brown banners giving anyone else browser lag when the page is loading up?

We're working with the agency on getting replacement ads that will hopefully improve site performance.

As far as adblock goes, here's a well reasoned statement against it: http://bit.ly/coezTe. It is how we pay to run the site, after all.

And from that well-reasoned argument:

"I am very proud of the fact that we routinely talk to you guys in our feedback forum about the quality of our ads. I have proven over 12 years that we will fight on the behalf of readers whenever we can... We turn down offers every month for [intrusive] advertising like that out of respect for you guys."

I like two-way streets. Seems unlikely that there'd be much reason to think about blocking ads on that guy's site.

but you aren't part of gothamist so why the fuck are you responding? And shame on you for promoting Ringling Brothers Circus that abuses elephants and killed baby elephants. stop with the 3rd world mentality

So immediately removing the ad until you get the doesn't-make-your-computer-suck version isn't an option? I know the money's important, but come on!

Add me to the list of aggravated readers. Gothamist has been crashing my browser right and left lately.

@ JDS: "The lawsuit in his back, feet, left hand and leg from injuries sustained while "protecting the public." Was he shot with lawsuits while on the job?!?

don't be a jackass and run adblock on these sites, it gets paid by advertisers. how else they keep running the site?
