all crime ≠ violent crime

try again.

from da same article you posted.

With easy access to the other four boroughs and even easier access to New Jersey and Upstate New York, Washington Heights became the breeding ground for wholesale drug trafficking, specifically of crack cocaine. Sharing a language and an interest in money, Colombian suppliers began associating with the Dominican drug dealers of Washington Heights; the pair quickly took the lion’s share of drug trade. The 34th Precinct, the sole police department of the area, was stretched too thin to adequately manage the issue. The drug problem got out of hand, and the Dominican drug dealers made a killing off of wholesale drug trafficking, often literally.

Man what white boy wrote this??

Talmbout drug dealers have been pushed out. Every time I go to the heights dudes still pushing and it still supplies the city and other states with. I'd and coke. It's just not as violent anymore.

Fam the article also clearly states:

"Through the 1980’s and 1990’s, a veritable crack cocaine epidemic was making the streets dangerous to residents and passersby, so dangerous that Washington Heights had to create an additional police precinct in 1994. "

"As drug dealers rose in prominence in Washington Heights, so did crime. In 1990, the 34th Precinct reported a total of 10,027 crimes in just over three square miles of land; 103 of those crimes were murders. The area became so crime ridden that in 1994, the 33rd Precinct was formed in the lower half of Washington Heights to help manage the lawlessness of the streets. "

From the same article:

As drug dealers rose in prominence in Washington Heights, so did crime. In 1990, the 34th Precinct reported a total of 10,027 crimes in just over three square miles of land; 103 of those crimes were murders. The area became so crime ridden that in 1994, the 33rd Precinct was formed in the lower half of Washington Heights to help manage the lawlessness of the streets. Just a year after the second precinct was created, the number of crimes dropped to under 60 percent of what it had been five years prior, totaling to 5,954 instances. The amount nearly halved again in 1998, where 3,869 total crimes were reported between the two precincts.

From a 1990 New York Times article:

Detective Sgt. Andrew Eanniello had spent the afternoon cruising the double-parked streets of Washington Heights, looking for a man and a woman suspected of robbing and killing two drug sellers.

Back in the squad, he hung up his suit jacket, and the radio squawked to life: ''Man shot, one-six-four and Broadway.''

Two days, three killings in New York City's busiest homicide precinct, the 34th at Broadway and 183d Street, covering Manhattan north of 155th Street.

''A fresh one,'' said Detective Anthony Imperato, pushing aside the paperwork from the morning's last shooting.

''All right, who's working here?'' bellowed Sergeant Eanniello.

There is rarely a break in the deadly routine, although a recent lull left detectives wondering what was wrong. Last year the precinct led the city with 99 of the record total of 1,905 killings, including three police shootings of suspects, labeled ''justifiables.''

This year the statistics are running well ahead of that, with killing No. 34 already inked onto the manila tally sheet in the back room; last year by now there were 25. The latest victim was an unidentified ''John Doe'' who died in the hospital on Saturday after being shot April 8 in a gunfight with a fire marshal investigating an arson on Audubon Avenue.

The column listing ''Motive'' repeats one word over and over: ''Drugs.'' But other homicides of greed and passion round out the caseload.

''Our day begins when your day ends,'' Detective Gennaro Giorgio said grimly, reciting an old homicide squad slogan. With 31 years on the job, 24 of them as a detective, he is the dean of the squad and one of two detectives lent to a special eight-member precinct homicide team from the citywide Homicide Task Force.

The only other precinct with a special homicide team is the 75th in Brooklyn's East New York section, which recorded 98 homicides last year and which detectives in the 34th sometimes refer to as ''our competition.'' Through yesterday the 75th's toll this year was 26 homicides.

i actually lived thru it, one of my OG's owned a yacht, my best friend's uncle is "el loco Fermín"

google him.

@ ya thinking da heights was ANYTHING violent like da bx or Brooklyn or Queens in da 80's or 90's.

wasn't even a comparison.

bunch of open air markets drug markets of bricks with Ferraris and night clubs >>>> bunch of hungry stick up kids and miles of demolished burned out buildings.

 

[RustyShackleford]

The Heightz being so chill is suprising to me, especially since I have been told otherwise before.......

Are those also examples of armed robbery Ninja? Because you know what, if sure felt like it at the time.

cops aint ish compared to da real goons that was active in da 80's-early 90's.

-i seen a cat get smoked headshot 2 feet away from me.

-my cribs got broken into twice when i went to DR

-my moms got pistol whipped & tied up by jack boys who tailed us coming from harlem at our old auto repair/flat fixed business, had i not intervened and scared em away she'd be dead.

-i got plotted on multiple times for my bubble North Face and by da good grace of god i kept that joint & managed to escape having a buck 50 scar.

-i beat up a jack boy and took his gun and posted it here cuz he tried to take my chain.

you know who had zero to do with that? NYPD.

and u already know Flatbush was straight Grimey and murderville, so i got no problem Cops flooding that zone & get da riff raff out like they did to my hood when it was getting violent.

u can fake being anti NYPD all u want here, i dont personally give a eff bout em myself, but to act like they aint solve NYC crime is being delusional.

i was around active in da 90's & da Bronx still looked like da get down on netflix.

Da hypocrisy
