Also, it sounds like he was just arrested, not convicted yet.

Thumbs down Thin Ice.

Not to mention the potential for a very serious defamation lawsuit should these allegations be proven unfounded.

Posting rumors in a public forum. Not a smooth move, ExLax.



Oh no, look! ANOTHER New York Transplant! Quick, get the Weed-Be-Gone (a very unpopular product in the QV projects).

yes. while both crimes are disgusting, the topic at hand isn't rape. it's molestation.

Correct. What he is accused of doing is not rape, child or no.

I lived in QV for 4 years and recently, and I had no idea what Silk Leaders or who Mitch or Dom were.

And, don't check megan's list for your zip, because the number of sex offenders in your hood is pretty significant.

Completely agree. Don't insinuate that the rest of us are stupid because we don't know who Mitch, Silk Leaders, or Dom are. Clarification would have been nice, and a non-snooty follow up response would have been better.

At any rate, child molestation is despicable, but let's wait till we get some more facts before nailing the guy to a cross...

OK, for the slower folks.

Silk Leaders is a fabric store on 4th & Fitzwater. Mitch is the owner. He was arrested for molesting a neighborhood boy. Apparently, it has been an ongoing thing. Dom is the local beat cop. Is this simple enough for you to follow?

What concerns me is that he is already out on bail and walking around the neighborhood like nothing happened.

I do not claim to be a know it all like the whole lot of ya. This is not a rumor. Mitch confessed to the arresting detectives, so I'm sure a plea deal is in the works. Most of the registered sex offenders in this zip are located in the bainbridge section 8 housing projects, they do not openly operate a local businesses.

I am not a lawyer, not am I familiar with criminal law. In my eyes, child molestation and child rape whatever ther difference should both be punishable by public execution.

Jump all over me, I couldn't give a nyc rat's ass.

You strike me as one of those neighborhood "nooseybodies" who spreads rumors or sensationalized stories all over the block because you have nothing better to do with your time.

The fact of the matter is, you DON'T really know what happened. Were you there? There's a such thing as hearsay. Rapist, molester, or not, can you imagine how this man's family feels? Can you imagine how the child in question feels? Look, I don't even know the guy, but for god's sake, let it come out in a newspaper or on the news before irresponsibly leaking information to millions on the internet. It's the respectable thing to do - for all parties.

What you did was tacky.

and I don't give a NYC rat's ass who you are OR where you come from!

I hear that bob is so upset by this that he's taking Sissy and the kids to her moms , and I heard Bob is all up in arms about Mich's sister Michele see she knows Phill so I don't think theres a need for a lawyer , you guys agree?

Not according to the US Supreme Court And you know he confessed to these atrocities how? From the detective himself? From Dom? Mitch? Or some other snoop in the hood?
