For
some time now folks have been wondering why, with all the high priced security
cameras in operation throughout Wilkes Barre, are we seeing so many crimes, and
so little arrests.
Most
recently Hawkeye comes under fire regarding the lack of surveillance in the
Dec. 21 hit-and-run death of 5-year-old Kevin Miller.
Miller
was struck by a car on North Street near the North Franklin Street
intersection, in VIEW of a Hawkeye Camera, and yet the only photos
released, came from cameras at Kings Collage, and a second photo from businessman Thom
Greco’s bridal store.
As
reported by Wake Up Wilkes Barre back in July Hawkeye cameras are supplied via NO-BID contract by TAC
now Schneider Electric (Mayor Leighton’s campaign
contributors) at a cost of $10,483.87 EACH, and yet they are seemingly
worthless.
Please
watch the video by Anthony Antonello of The Wilkes Barre Independent Gazette.
Anthony
takes an in depth look at the path the hit and run driver took that evening,
and outlines all of the Hawkeye Cameras the vehicle passed under as it fled the
scene.
- How can we justify Hawkeye?
