MOUNT POLICE OFFICER'S GUN STOLEN IN POLICE LOCKER ROOM; COMMISSIONER BURKE FAILS TO ADDRESS "CYCLE OF CORRUPTION IN MVPD"
MVPD Officer John Damiano |
As
City officials continue to try to discredit news media outlets for
reporting on newsworthy issues, Mount Vernon Exposed’s popularity
continues to soar and has become the primary go to for whistle blowers.
Last
week a rally was held by various city officials to boycott local
media. As a result of the boycott, Mount Vernon Exposed’s is now
experiencing in excess of 25,000 hits per week, making Mount Vernon
Exposed, the official hometown paper of Mount Vernon. Mount Vernon
Exposed is a source trusted by all to report allegations of corruption.
Today,
Mount Vernon Exposed received a tip that a gun was stolen from the
locker room of the Mount Vernon Police Department on Friday, March 22,
2013. The officer that had his gun stolen was John Damiano, a second
veteran of the Mount Vernon Police Department. According to John’s
Facebook page, he attended the School of Hard Knocks. It was his off
duty 9mm that was stolen by what it appears to be, another police
officer. Sources told Mount Vernon Exposed that there is a security
camera right outside of the locker room, so it should be easy to find
the culprit or culprits.
When
the tip was received, Mount Vernon Exposed immediately called Mayor
Ernie Davis, who did not know about the incident and was very concerned
and said he would look into the incident and launch an immediate
investigation.
After
a few hours, Mayor Davis called Mount Vernon Exposed back and informed
us that the tip about the stolen gun was indeed true. Mayor Davis then
asked “Where is my leak coming from in the Police Department”?
Mount
Vernon Exposed responded by stating that one need not be concerned with
a leak but one should be concerned that a gun has been stolen and could
possibly be on the street and could possibly be involved in the recent
shooting occurring in Mount Vernon.
According
to a source, a cop stole the gun and sold it to gang members in Mount
Vernon. Over the last few weeks there has been a huge uprising in
violent and gang related crimes in Mount Vernon. Since Richard Burke
took over the command at the MVPD there has been multiple shootings, the
latest just yesterday, a few blocks from the MVPD.
Deputy
Commissioner Burke said that he wants to break the “cycle of violence”
in Mount Vernon but he has failed to implement a plan to address the
“cycle of corruption” in the Mount Vernon Police Department.
Could
the gun stolen be the same gun used in yesterday’s shooting just
blocks away from City Hall and MVPD? The gun used in yesterday’s crime
was a 9mm and the stolen gun was a 9mm. Is there a connection here?
Mount Vernon officials must not remain silent of this issue as this gun
could be involved in serious crimes throughout the City of Mount
Vernon.

if corruption will not be seized then it will just continue and grow bigger.
