[Chat] Fwd: Would-be rescuer stabbed 3 times

[Linda Forlifer]

It's distressing that the police do not believe such an incident to be
high in their priority list.  When someone is stabbed and their
intestine is punctured, that is a life-threatening assault.  Our police
should be trying to identify the criminals who are preying on our
neighborhood, and the detectives' reluctance to interview the people
involved seems to show that they are not giving us needed attention.  

Recent CV robberies have been at gunpoint and knifepoint.  According to
the police spokesman, Sterling Clifford, "In the case of the
nonlife-threatening injury, it is not unusual for the detective not to
respond to the scene."  Detectives did not interview Benjamin Treat
until 35 hours after the stabbing, and then only after he and his mother
called several times.  I guess the police are telling us they will wait
til someone is killed before making extra efforts to apprehend the CV
criminals.  That will be too late.
