ALBANY, N.Y. -- Federal prosecutors are unsealing indictments on a number of defendants this afternoon in connection with a raid in Schenectady.
Schenectady County District Attorney Robert Carney is expected to be joined by U.S. Attorney Richard Hartunian as well as a special agent from the FBI to announce the arrests.
A house on Altamont Avenue in Schenectady is at the center of today's news conference. This morning's raid resulted in more than 20 arrests.
While we don't know at this point if today's announcement is gang-related, it does come on the heels of the large gang raids in New York in the past week.
A gang bust in Albany last week resulted in 52 arrests. That indictment contained 261 counts, including various felony charges of criminal sale and criminal possession of a controlled substance. Over the weekend, a several-month-long undercover operation was completed when more than 100 alleged gang members were arrested in Kingston.
I think they said that there will be a press conference regarding this @ 2 PM.

And how many of those that were part of this bust are also part of the corrupt Schenectady PD? Well, so far, the number is 0, but we'll have to also read the names of those that go to trial to get the full count. There was NO HELP from the SPD in taking this down, it was all State Police and the Federal Government.

And you think this PALTRY raid is going to make a big difference.
Give us a raid the likes of what Schenectady had in the mid 1990's
Hey it's good that something is being done, but explain WHY this was not stopped by your dem socialists.
And tell us WHY it took the dems so many years to do this???? Huh????? Oh yeah, there was no money! The dems were spending THE HOMEOWNERS' money on the millioniares downtown, right?
And I guess you think that they should be materially compensated so much that you would say it's fine if homeowners lose their homes in order to lavish the extravagance on the city cops? Well?????? Can you respond to that question????
So come on ham, you always cheer for compensating them so much, why are you SUCH A BIG CHICKEN to anwer the question?????? Huh????? Why such a CHICKEN CHICKEN CHICKEN
Ham. do you belive the city's cops should be paid extravagant salaries, be given lavish city vehicles to take daily pleasure drives far outside the city, even if that means that homeowners will lose their homes to tax foreclousre due to being unable to continue to pay the ever increeasing taxes??????
Can you answer a simple "Yes" or "No" to that question????? Can you anwer it??????? Or are you too much of a chicken to answer it?????

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.

One can safely assume you are referring to the drug dealers, because being a cop isn't even in the TOP 25 most dangerous jobs.
Less than 100 cops NATION WIDE, died in the line of duty last year, as opposed to THOUSANDS of construction and factory workers who died in the same time period. Hey look! COPS is on TV! Grab that hand lotion, it's time to pleasure yourself!

I thought there were no 'gang problems' in Schenectady....no?
Now this is great advertisement for those homes for sale.
But hey....at least they are attempting. Now all schenectady needs are strong judges to prosecute to the fullest extent of the law.

I don't spell check! Sorry... If you include "No offense" in a statement, chances are, your statement is offensive.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
