When he's not stopping the sag or accusing the Times of racism for wanting to "throw the bums out" of Albany, Eric Adams (D-Brooklyn) has guns in his crosshairs. At the end of January he was tossing your kid's bedroom and finding bullets ("Where there's smoke, there's possibly fire," warned Adams in a video, holding a bullet "discovered" behind a picture frame). In his latest attention-grabber, the senator collaborated with the Daily News to get hidden-camera footage of his shopping spree at Capital District gun shops. more ›

If this video is real, get ready to have a new fear after absorbing all 5 minutes and 51 seconds of it. In short: this guy noticed food missing from his apartment and set up a hidden camera, the footage of which showed a woman living in a lofted storage area and coming out in the middle of the night to raid his fridge and pee in his sink. We sort of want it to be real in the same way we wanted the Blair Witch Project to be real. more ›

The right-wing smear campaign against community organizing group ACORN is having the desired effect; yesterday the Senate voted 83-7 to deny housing and community grant funding to the non-profit organization. The vote—prompted by last week's arrest of ACORN employees in Florida accused of falsifying hundreds of voter applications last year—came as an unflattering secret camera video shot in ACORN's Brooklyn office surfaced. The video shows two ACORN employees advising a young couple, posing as prostitute and pimp, how to falsify documents to get a mortgage and tax breaks for a brothel housing El Salvadoran teens. more ›

Newsday reports that Robert Infantino, who calls himself "Long Island's Favorite Magician, was arrested for allegedly "secretly videotaping" a woman and her two daughters "during a 'free photo shoot' at his home."
