Letter to the Editor: Det. Onofrio Says Shed Is Found, Responds to Comments

After reading several comments regarding the stolen shed at Amato's, Detective Ron Onofrio requested this letter be published.

 

The following is a letter from Detective Ron Onofrio of the North Branford Police Department:

Hi Jenn, 

I just wanted to send a quick note and thank you for posting the photo and article of the shed that was removed from the property of Amato's. I received some phone calls from people that provided some information. I would like to say the location has been determined and arrangements will be made for it to be returned to the proper owner.  

One thing that gets me is the negative comments that were submitted. Ones like, it must be a "slow police day" and others not worth mentioning. This is the perfect example of how our police department works hard to make the entire town and its community members safe.

I guarantee the people that made these comments will need the assistance of this department at some point in their life and will be happy to know that we will provide them with the same courtesy and respect as we do everyone that makes a complaint – no matter how small others may think the issue to be. 

Jenn, thanks again and I will again use this wonderful resource in the future. Thanks for your help and the help of the community members that care. 

Detective Ron Onofrio
North Branford Police Department

Call Channel 8. That's what a mom had to do here in Guilford last spring to get action after herRead More kindergartener was dropped off alone at the entrance to their condo complex. She walked over 1/2 mile along side a lake and woods to her condo. As a school bus driver and a mother I am shocked that these instances have not been dealt with swiftly! Never, ever on my watch would this happen!

Update- I get a call the other day from the school that my son was pushed while waiting for the busRead More and fell. I was told the teacher watching was a substitute and put him on the bus. When asked if he was okay I basically was told that they had no idea! (That is another story) Bottom line is I had a nice call with the principal and feel that she has done all she could. Based on her advice I contacted the Superintendent to see if I could schedule a call with him. Tuesday at 10:00 AM Obviously I see were this situation ranks!

I had problems last year with out driver taking off before my son sat down. I reported this to theRead More school principal as well as DATCO. Datco could careless what the drivers do. The principal called them as well and it stopped. I now watch every day from a different window. The driver knows I will report him again if he does this again. We have had a few sub drivers do the same. Datco doesnt care what the drivers do no use in having them investigate anything. They wont listen. The thing is it has to be documented if i see anything on any bus around town you have to call it in especially when you see children not in seats jumping around ect. They really need to put cameras on the buses some kids dont listen to the drivers either its a 2 way street but the actions of dropping a kid off when its not their stop is ridicules!
