Landslide...5 votes....maybe loss.....

This has been a great election with the elitist McCarthy eating a huge serving of crow.

If McCarthy refuses to acknowledge the truth that our City is in a downward spiral - maybe this election has shown him that he needs to open his eyes. The City residents are speaking loudly with this election and refuse to be treated as second class citizens.

Pit bulls, highest taxes in the Northeast, corrupt cops, grafitti. Wake up McCarthy, this might be the last time you get to hit the snooze button.

I fear that he is wide awake but yet still doesn't have a clue. Point blank, he wins and the city is screwed. We need radical moves to save us. He's not capable.

Sgt. William P. Fennell's refusal to submit to the Breathalyzer test following the Nov. 6 crash led to a state Department of Motor Vehicles hearing before the administrative law judge in Albany on Tuesday................>>>>.................>>>>.............Read more: http://www.timesunion.com/local/article/Judge-takes-cop-s-driver-s-license-2403793.php#ixzz1gbIW6hJL

Every once and awhile equal justice for all exposes herself and restores some faith in the justice system.

Schenectady cop admits drunken driving


By Paul Nelson

Updated 09:52 a.m., Tuesday, May 15, 2012

BETHLEHEM - William Fennell, a veteran Schenectady police sergeant, pleaded guilty to driving while intoxicated Tuesday in connection with a hit-and-run accident at the intersection of routes 9W and 396.

Fennell made the admission in Bethlehem town court. Fennell declined to talk to a reporter as he left court.

As part of his sentence, Fennell's license was revoked for six months. And for the next year, he'll have to use an ignition lock that will check whether he is under the influence of alcohol every time he turns over his vehicle.

Fennell was sentenced by town Justice Ryan Donovan.

Assistant District Attorney Renee Merges said prosecutors would not allow Fennell to plead guilty a lesser charge.

"This is the policy disposition when you refuse a Breathalyzer test you do not get the benefit of a reduced offer," Merges said.

Fennell's attorney said he expects the sergeant will keep his job.

"It places no barriers for him to go back to work," Kevin O'Brien said of the sentence.

Fennell, 39, who has 11 years on the force, was charged Nov. 6 with drunken driving, leaving the scene of a property-damage accident, imprudent speed and refusal to submit to a Breathlyzer

Police received a call around 3:45 p.m. from someone at KT Barnside Eatery in Selkirk area of the town who reported that a take-out customer who appeared intoxicated had just left the restaurant. As officers were heading to the scene, police received a report of a car accident near the restaurant.

Fennell allegedly rear-ended a car at the intersection of routes 9W and 396. As a Bethlehem police officer stopped to talk to the driver of the first vehicle, police said, Fennell pulled out around the first vehicle and fled the scene.

Fennell then drove off the right side of the road and hit a tree a short distance away on Beaver Dam Road.

Optimists close their eyes and pretend problems are non existent.  
Better to have open eyes, see the truths, acknowledge the negatives, and
speak up for the people rather than the politicos and their rich cronies.

The guy made $106,000 in 2011.  Great roll model.  Great system we have.  Bravo for Bethlehem.
