IS YONKERS SAFE: A Review Of Yonkers Social Media Posts Shows At Least 25 Shootings in The City of Yonkers In Less Than Eight Months; And There May Be More That Have Not Been Reported To The Public – Plus This Doesn’t Count The Spike In Stabbings…..
ENCOURAGING CRIMINALS: When #Yonkers criminals start to feel that the Yonkers Police Department wont respond or that there will be any record or consequences for their criminal behavior, then that is when the blood starts to flow in the streets of the city of hills.
WATCHDOG NEEDED: The Yonkers Police Department is failing to record property and other crimes in an effort to maintain this myth that #Yonkers is the second safest city.
A FAILURE TO LEAD: These #YonkersPD Administrative shortcomings mean victims are being failed in the city of hills and a watchdog should be appointed to look over #YPD,calls and logs to ensure that homeowners are getting the service they pay for.
MEANINGLESS STATISTICS: Yonkers Police Department Commissioner #JohnMueller improve the safety of residents or target crimes with inadequate crime recording by #YonkersPolice officers.
Some Yonkers Community Activists say they are disappointed with the quality of crime recording provided by the Yonkers Police Department and that many people in the neighborhoods that they serve complain of officers not responding or willing to take a report.
Commissioner John Mueller needs to ensure that it records crimes at the earliest opportunity, and that there is proper supervision of crime-recording decisions.
Some Yonkers political insiders are estimating that almost one in five crimes in North Yorkshire are not properly recorded and that doesn’t count the reported crimes that are never reported.
This is simply inexcusable.
Too many offences in #Yonkers continue to go unrecorded and therefore not investigated properly.
These issues of unethical police behavior must stop.
Yonkers residents need to feel that every day, every officer is working hard to keep you safe from harm and to protect victims of crime.
The Yonkers police force needs to do a much better job of addressing all crimes in order to improve the quality of live in the city.
The Yonkers Police Department administration is letting families down, and they are not recording all crimes as they should, which often emboldens criminals to move from property crimes to more serious crimes.
Based on the incomplete YPD reports the chance that a person will become a victim of a violent crime in Yonkers; such as armed robbery, aggravated assault, rape or murder; is 1 in 277.
Sadly, that number is much worse as crimes are under reported by the Yonkers Police Department administration.
