    Was Hanina involved in the arrest? Was he at the top level NYPD meetings?

    because this kid is 16 years old, i believe there are a number of legalities re: posting his image. regardless of what he may or may not be guilty of, you may want to reconsider this post until you find out the specifities with respect to minors for no other reason than it may significantly cause harm insofar as the trial, etc. thanks.

    Crime pays: ”Ex-con Rufus Graham (the Spider Burglar), 40, is suspected of breaking into two dozen homes and a school, stealing cash, clothes, credit cards and electronics, police said.
    Graham has been arrested 13 times – six times for burglary – since 1985 and served more than seven years behind bars, authorities said.
    This is our Criminal Justice Department. How many times will this rasha be arrested and released?

  • aaron

    he looks like the same guy who beat up a bocher in the subway…chaleras….

  • Chanina Ha!

    Wasn’t Chanina trying to spring him to show Jewish goodwill? Isn’t that what he always does!

  • Get him

    The other guy was his Buddy (his Buddy in braking into houses) & the cops let him go.

  • elchonon

    When will you guys learn, you fell so hard for guliani’s spin! no guns = high crime… get a gun and stop being such ghetto yiden!

    al tiftachu b’nidivim b’ven adam she’en lo teshuo…

    The rebbe ALWAYS quoted shulchan aruch hilchos shabbos regarding goyim coming to steal wheat on shabbos and we go to war.. and thats why eretz yisrael must defend their borders.

    Main stream media has brainwashed you! try that garbage in new hampshire or texas and you’ll be in the morgue now!

    When anash arms themselfs which I personaly believe is a chiyuv m’deoreisa.. then the crime rate will stop!

    Why should they stop the robberies ? they go to jail for a few hours and thats it..

    But when the guy breaks into your house and see’s a shot gun pointed between his eyes.. he will think twice about robbing a yid again..

    He needs to spend a long time in the Rikers Island mikveh with Bubba.

  • Mendel

    its a good thing that they cought him before he does his next break-in
    answer to concerned: if you have mercy on bad-people your punishing the good

  • just snooping

    To concerned:
    CONCERNED ……………

    What is it with you and your legalities. Whats wrong with posting the picture of a “minor” on the internet. He is obviously not “minor” enough to break into houses at all hours of the day and night. We need to see his picture! We need to know to watch out for him as he snoops the neighborhood. YOU DON“T WANT TO BE NEXT CHAS V”SHOLOM!

  • I was there

    The other guy who was let go is the next door neighbor, this guy landed on our roof, and when we confronted him he tryed to get in to this neighbor’s house. If we would behave like they do in williamsburg (by taking care of him ourselves before going to the police, believe me , they would not think of doing things like this to anyone in this neighborhood!!!!!!We need everyone–shomrim, the community council, to be united on this one.

  • someone

    how stupid will these people get
    they know their cjances
    hope he is inprision long
    will he go to juvenille prison?

  • I LOVE CH.INFO

    i love this website how e\o is saying we should do this and do that but for some reason nothing gets done….. instead of posting something should be done go get off the computer and DO SOMETHING!!!!!

  • TO CONCERNED:

    i dont know what you were thinkin when you wrote what you did, these pple start out as minors, if you let them go now theyll just continue, and about not posting his picture and feeling all bad for him, why dont you use that yidishe heart for jews, and not goyim would you want i lion sitting in your backyard?? let him sit in prison for what the POOR guy did

  • shame

    imagine this: there is a 16 yr old bochur who took a bad turn and started robbing houses. if his picture was posted up you probably would be all up in arms about it! how dare someone post a picture of a bochur doing s/t bad! is this ahavas yisroel? is this not loshon hara?
    being that this kid is not a jew you might not say the same as if he was a yid. but think about this- the torah sais not to rejoice over your enemies downfall… is posting a picture not rejoicing?
    shame on you!

  • I was there
