Plans to challenge Putnam incumbent as independent Larry Burke, a former officer-in-charge for the Cold Spring Police Department, has announced a campaign to challenge incumbent Putnam County Sheriff Kevin McConville in the fall election. Both men live in Philipstown. Burke said he plans to collect signatures for a nominating petition by a May 27 deadline to get on the ballot as an independent. McConville is seeking his second, 4-year term on the Republican and Conservative lines. Burke, 59, has worked in law enforcement for 37 years, including 26 years with the New York City Police Department. He joined the Cold Spring department in 2013 and served as officer-in-charge for seven years. He resigned in 2024 but continues as a part-time officer. Burke has also served as a firefighter with North Highlands Fire Co. for 12 years. He spoke with The Current on Thursday (May 1). His responses have been edited for clarity and brevity. What was your role with NYPD? I was a transit police officer for five years, riding and patrolling the subways in all the boroughs, 8 p.m. to 4 a.m. After that, I did regular patrols in the 40th precinct, South Bronx, for two years. I moved to the community policing unit, where you patrol a five- to 10-block area. You get to know people, the residents, store owners and the bad guys. You learn about cultures; that people from Colombia, Puerto Rico and Dominican Republic are different culturally in how they bring up their family, how they do certain things. It's how I learned community policing. You get into people's lives, understand them, understand their kids, understand where they're from. They might distrust the police because the military may have run the police department [in their native countries]. It was a learning experience for me, a white police officer in a predominantly minority neighborhood. It was good. It was about gaining friendships and mutual respect. There must have been culture shock coming to Cold Spring. The crime was a lot less than what I dealt with before! One school, one neighborhood, stores on Main Street. You get to know people a lot quicker. I was experienced but still had to start on midnights. I found it a little hard to adjust to seeing three deer in the middle of the street but no people at 2 a.m. When I started day shifts, I got out of the patrol car, started walking, got to know the community. Is being an officer-in-charge enough experience to be sheriff? I had to run a small police department. I knew how to be a patrol officer, but I didn't know about budgets. I didn't know about manpower. I didn't know how to deal with the county, the state. I learned a lot in seven years. I went through seven budget processes, learned what we could and couldn't afford, what to fight for, what to let go until the next cycle. I learned about hiring people and letting people go. As my responsibilities increased, it built my confidence. I did the administrative work and I know I can do that with the county. I will reach out and hire a staff with expertise in the civil unit, the corrections unit, captain of patrol, captain of communications and other positions. I want to surround myself with intelligent people who know the police world. I want mutual support and to do the best job I can. Is running as an independent realistic? It is to me. There should be no politics in policing whatsoever, especially with today's atmosphere. Everyone's fighting at the national, state and county level. I'm a police officer and a volunteer firefighter. We don't look to see who's a Democrat and who's a Republican. We serve. I knew it was going to be hard running as an independent, but I'm not going to push one political party or another. And no one should run unopposed. Why should residents vote for you? I've dealt with Sheriff McConville personally. I've been in meetings with him, along with the chiefs of other police departments in the county, and what I've seen is division. It's his way or the highwa...

“I get a call, … I'm waiting outside on the street corner. … A pickup truck shows up, with a fridge on it. Two guys get out and drop this fridge on the street. And that's literally the way it started. These two anonymous guys, who drop this fridge on the street. … And there's this guy named Ruben. And he's the gatekeeper of the block —making sure everyone's on good behavior and nobody messes up the block and he says to me, ‘What is this?' And I say ‘Its a community fridge'. ‘A fridge for the community?' Yeah, I say. And he says, ‘I got you Dan, you and me, we're going to do this'…It was during COVID, and Dan Zauderer was a 6th grade Humanities teacher at the American Dream School in the South Bronx, a charter school in New York. The American Dream School specifically served the undocumented Latin American community. And because Dan taught in Costa Rica for a while, his Spanish skills were good, and it allowed him to get to know his students really well.Because he took the time to lean into the school community, he discovered that many of many of his students' families did not have access to basic resources. He sent out a survey via text message to eighty eight families and what he learned changed the course of his life. One in four families were cutting down on meals or skipping meals a few times a week. “The first project,' he tells me, “Was raising money online. By tapping into the contacts he'd made throughout his life, he was able to raise in the tens of thousands of dollars. They raised money for hotspots, for books for summer reading and food supplies… "It was a great experience, to know that you could rally community that way.”  They began to send staples to his student's families —cleaning supplies, beans and rice. But some of the families struggled more than others.  They enrolled six families in a food delivery program, where they received weekly boxes of produce. Over time, the money ran out, but the food insecurity did not. It was in that experience that the seeds of Grassroots Grocery were sown.  Dan Zauderer is a community builder, social entrepreneur, and the driving force behind Grassroots Grocery. His journey began as a middle school teacher at the Bronx's American Dream School, where he discovered that one in four of his students were facing food insecurity. That moment changed everything. Leaving his teaching job, he co-founded the Mott Haven Fridge Network, a grassroots initiative that grew into Grassroots Grocery, a volunteer-powered movement bringing fresh, healthy food directly to communities that need it most.Learn more about Grassroots Grocery here.Do you know someone who has a story to tell?

What if school was designed around student agency, real-world learning, and deep relationships—instead of compliance and test scores? In this episode, I take you inside Fannie Lou Hamer Freedom High School, a Big Picture Learning school in the South Bronx that is reimagining what education can be. I spent two days observing classes, talking with students and teachers, and experiencing firsthand how this school operates within the constraints of the public school system while centering student voice and engagement. You'll hear about: How Fannie Lou's advisory system, looping, and block scheduling create a close-knit, supportive learning environment Why students don't take standardized tests and instead defend portfolios of work How extended learning opportunities (ELOs) and internships connect students to real-world experiences The role of AI and technology in supporting student-driven, competency-based learning What it actually looks like to make relationships the foundation of a school Fannie Lou's approach isn't a magic bullet or an exclusive model—it's a public school choice within NYC's Department of Education that any student can opt into. Listen in to hear what's possible when we trust students, empower teachers, and rethink what high-quality learning truly looks like. Get the shareable article/transcript for this episode here.

6 Police From The NYPD Were Shot The Apprehension and Pressure. In the high-stakes world of law enforcement, decisions made under pressure can define careers and change lives. One such case, which involved the shooting of six NYPD officers, put the spotlight on the internal struggles within the department and the unwavering commitment of one commander to uphold justice. You can listen to the interview as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website and platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify and most major podcast platforms. The Tragic Incident and the Hunt for a Suspect In November 1986, a dramatic confrontation unfolded in the South Bronx when NYPD officers attempted to apprehend a suspect linked to multiple homicides. The operation, which should have been a routine arrest, quickly spiraled into chaos as the suspect engaged in a shootout with the police. Six officers were shot, miraculously all survived. Follow the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms. Despite the severity of the situation, political pressure and poor decision-making by NYPD command staff delayed the apprehension of the suspect. Lieutenant Commander Vernon Geberth, then the head of the Homicide Division in the Bronx, found himself at a crossroads. Frustrated by bureaucratic missteps, he chose to rely on tried-and-true policing tactics, ultimately leading to the suspect's capture. He would later describe his decisions as a leader by the higher-ups as "Commandacide." 6 Police From The NYPD Were Shot The Apprehension and Pressure. Read the supporting stories about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium, Newsbreak and Blogspot. The Aftermath: Career Consequences and Retirement Though his leadership was instrumental in bringing the suspect to justice, Geberth faced backlash from the NYPD’s brass. Recognizing that his defiance might lead to punitive action, he made the painful decision to retire. His departure was not a result of failure but of a system unwilling to embrace officers who prioritized effective policing over politics. The interview is available as a free podcast on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and podcast website, also available on platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and most major podcast outlets. The Notorious Suspect’s Fate The suspect, a man from NYC, initially gained notoriety when he claimed self-defense in the shootout and was acquitted of charges except for illegal gun possession. However, his criminal past eventually caught up with him. In 1991, he was convicted of the murder of a Bronx drug dealer and sentenced to 25 years to life. His story ended in 2008 when he was fatally stabbed by another inmate. 6 Police From The NYPD Were Shot The Apprehension and Pressure.

Vernon Geberth: A Legacy in Law Enforcement Following his NYPD retirement, Vernon Geberth continued to shape the field of criminal investigation. His expertise made him a sought-after commentator for major media outlets, including Fox News, 60 Minutes, Frontline, and A&E. He was frequently invited to discuss high-profile cases on platforms like Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Apple, and Spotify podcasts. Known as the "Godfather of Homicide," Geberth's impact on law enforcement extends far beyond his time in the field. His textbook, Practical Homicide Investigation, is regarded as the definitive resource for homicide detectives worldwide. Now in its fifth edition, the book is an essential tool in police academies, including the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. 6 Police From The NYPD Were Shot The Apprehension and Pressure. Check out the show on Facebook, Instagram, LinkedIn, Newsbreak, Medium and most all social media platforms The Ongoing Impact of His Teachings Through his books, training seminars, and media presence, Geberth has left an indelible mark on modern policing.

  Housing justice isn't just about where we live—it's about power, equity, and the future of our communities. In this episode, Keeanga-Yamahtta Taylor, Hughes-Rogers Professor of African American Studies at Princeton University, and Majora Carter, real estate developer, urban revitalization strategist, and MacArthur Fellow, examine the systemic racism baked into housing policies and the economic forces that shape our neighborhoods. Taylor underscores the need for grassroots activism, while Carter shares her work on reversing the brain drain in low-status communities like the South Bronx.

He's a former bilingual math and science teacher in the South Bronx, and he founded the Neighborhood Trust Federal Credit Union, which today has made over $100 million of loans to local families and businesses in Northern Manhattan and the South Bronx. He served on the New York City Council for 8 years, including as Chair of the Committee on Parks, Chair of the Jewish Caucus, and Chair of the Committee on Health, where he brought his science-based and data driven approach to helping to lead the city out of the worst public health crisis in a century. He introduced and passed transformative tenants rights protections, including the first-in-the-nation Right to Counsel, which guarantees tenants at risk of eviction with legal representation if they cannot afford a lawyer. In 2022, Mark was elected Manhattan Borough President, where he led the fight to end our affordability crisis. He identified opportunities for tens of thousands of new units of housing, advocated for new policies that will help create badly needed affordable housing, and fought to protect tenants so they can stay in their homes. He has launched campaigns to plant a million more trees and deliver millions of dollars of low-interest loans to small businesses, and has pushed the city to improve our mental health system, ensure New Yorkers can travel quickly and safely on our streets, and prepare for climate change. Mark lives in Upper Manhattan with his wife and two kids, who are studying to be a nurse and EMT. In his free time, Mark spends time with his family and likes to study languages. He speaks Spanish and Hebrew fluently, and is studying Greek and French. "Rethink Production presents "Live From America Podcast" - a weekly show that combines political commentary with humor.

In this episode of the Fund The People Podcast, you'll get an inside view of one foundation's journey to investing in healthy nonprofit executive transitions - and helping other funders to do the same. Host Rusty Stahl sits down withLiz Sak, Executive Director ofCricket Island Foundation, andHana Sun, a consultant who manages the Foundation's Leadership Transition Fund. They discuss Cricket Island Foundation's approach to supporting nonprofit leadership transitions, particularly for small, grassroots organizations focused on youth organizing. The foundation provides three-year grants of $45,000 per year to help organizations navigate the before, during, and after phases of executive transitions.Often funders unintentionally create barriers to healthy grantee leadership transitions, with many nonprofit leaders hesitant to openly discuss their plans to leave due to fears of lost or postponed funding. Cricket Island Foundation addressed this by publicly signaling their supportive stance toward transitions, creating a firewall between the foundation and grantees through an external consultant, establishing peer-learning cohorts for transitioning leaders, and developing resources for both nonprofits and funders through the Leading Forward initiative.The discussion emphasizes that successful transitions require long-term planning, adequate resources, and a supportive funding ecosystem. We also talk about the importance of normalizing conversations about transitions and creating safe spaces for leaders to explore their future plans.Resources:Cricket IslandLeading Forward Leadership Learning CommunityBuilding Movement Project “Could Term Limits for Nonprofit Leaders Ease the Burnout Crisis?” by Chitra Aiyar,Chronicle of Philanthropy, Jan. 7, 2025“Supporting Nonprofit Leadership Transitions: A Foundation's Journey” July 2024ciftransitions@gmail.comLiz SakLiz Sak became the second Executive Director of the Cricket Island Foundation in 2008, overseeing all aspects of the Foundation's management including finance, program development, grantmaking, and field-building.Prior to joining the foundation, Liz spent more than two decades running non-profit organizations.

Al Pacino is way different than you'd think. Excellent book called 'Sonny Boy' all about his upbringing in South Bronx.

Mr. Untouchable, a 2007 documentary directed by Marc Levin, describes the rise and fall of former New York City drug kingpin, Leroy (“Nicky”) Barnes. In the early 1970s, Barnes formed “The Council,” an organized crime syndicate that controlled a significant part of the heroin trade in Harlem. Inspired by the Italian-American mafia, Barnes became one of the most powerful and notorious figures in New York City. A flashy and flamboyant fixture on the free-wheeling social scene of the period, Barnes quickly drew the attention of law enforcement. After several unsuccessful state prosecution attempts, Barnes, along with multiple other associates, was indicted by federal prosecutors in New York in 1977. Barnes was convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment. Barnes, however, was released in 1998, in exchange for working as a government informant, and entered the Witness Protection Program, where he remained until his death in 2012.  Barnes was also depicted in Ridley Scott's 2007 film American Gangster, which starred Denzel Washington as Frank Lucas, another notorious drug kingpin from the era. Cuba Gooding Jr. portrayed Barnes in that film. Joining me to talk about Mr. Untouchable and the Nicky Barnes case is Robert B. Fiske, Jr., Senior Counsel at Davis Polk in New York, where he previously served as litigation partner for many years. Bob Fiske is one of the most prominent and respected trial lawyers in America. He has been involved in some of the most notable cases of the last half-century, including as special prosecutor in the Whitewater controversy and the death of White House counsel Vince Foster, the Three Mile Island nuclear disaster, the antitrust suit between the USFL and. NFL, the most contentious America's Cup ever, and the financial swindler Bernie Madoff.  Mr. Fiske also served as the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York from 1976 to 1980, during which time he led the prosecution of Nicky Barnes. Timestamps:0:00   Introduction3:18     Drug trafficking in Harlem and the South Bronx in the 1970s4:55    Who was Nicky Barnes6:27     Trying to bring Barnes to justice7:57      “Mr. Untouchable” and a call from Attorney General Griffin Bell13:08   A sequestered and anonymous jury17:22    Navigating credibility issues with key government witnesses29:25   An issue with a juror dubbed the “Marlboro Man”33:46   The guilty verdict against Barnes36:25   The larger implications of the Barnes case37:51    The depiction of Nicky Barnes on filmFurther reading:Barnes, Leroy & Folsom, Tom, Mr. Untouchable: The Rise, Fall, and Resurrection of Heroin's Teflon Don (2007)Ferretti, Fred, “Mr. Untouchable,” N.Y.

The All Local Afternoon Update for Friday, January 24,2025

DJ Hollywood, born Anthony Holloway on December 10, 1954, in Harlem, New York, is a pioneering American MC and disc jockey whose innovative style in the 1970s significantly influenced the evolution of hip-hop music. In the early 1970s, DJ Hollywood began performing DJ sets that incorporated rhythmic call-and-response interactions with his audience. Unlike earlier MCs who primarily spoke over tracks, he introduced rhythm and rhyme into his performances, laying the groundwork for what would become hip-hop-style rapping. His approach drew inspiration from figures like Jocko Henderson, Pigmeat Markham, Gil Scott-Heron, and Rudy Ray Moore. By 1978, DJ Hollywood made history as the first DJ to bring turntables and a mixer to the Apollo Theater. His popularity soared, leading to performances at venues like Club 371 in the South Bronx. Although much of his work was live and not recorded, he did release the single "Shock Shock The House" in 1980 under CBS Records. Throughout the early to mid-1980s, he remained a dominant figure in the DJ scene. After a hiatus due to personal challenges he left the music scene for a short period of time. However, DJ Hollywood returned to the music scene, performing in the New York City area and reuniting with former partner Lovebug Starski as part of Tha Veteranz. DJ Hollywood's contributions have been acknowledged in various media, including the 2024 PBS series "Disco: Soundtrack of a Revolution," which explores the cultural impact of disco music.

Sarah shares insights from her work with students, particularly around connecting academic learning to real-world issues through community service. She highlights how fostering a sense of mattering helps students manage stress, develop confidence, and experience mental health benefits. We explore ways for teachers, parents, and schools to support students' mental well-being through small, consistent actions to reinforce students' intrinsic value. Sarah also discusses how the Mattering Movement's curriculum integrates into academic subjects, providing a framework to build connection, belonging, and resilience among students. Three Takeaways The Power of Mattering: Students benefit when they feel valued and are encouraged to add value, which helps counter the pressures of an achievement-focused culture. Curriculum Integration: The Mattering Movement's curriculum is flexible, allowing integration into any academic subject and making social-emotional learning part of the regular school day. Support for Parents and Educators: Parents and educators can foster a sense of mattering in small, meaningful ways to help students develop resilience and manage stress Social Media / Resources LinkedIn Website: The Mattering Movement

NYPD Sergeant by Day, Exorcist by Night. Ralph Sarchie is the real life inspiration behind the film Deliver Us From Evil – adapted from Ralph's book Beware the Night. Ralph Sarchie born in New York City on June 14, 1962. At just ten months old, Ralphie contracted a severe illness that nearly took his life. He miraculously survived and he entire family thought it was divine intervention, that young Ralphie was saved, by God... because he had a larger purpose on this Earth. To save people... to deliver them... from EVIL. Ralph turned to religion sometime in 1990 and found the book Satan's Harvest, a book about a case of demonic possession that Ed and Lorraine Warren investigated. By the end of it, his life path had changed and he decided to commit himself to performing God's Work.... and become a demonologist. Ralph continued to work his day job as a cop in South Bronx, but on his own time, he began to consult and befriend Father Martin. Father Martin became his mentor and it was with Father Martin that Ralphie participated in over 20 exorcisms... From the Exorcism of the Villanova Family on a horrifying Halloween Night, to bringing something dark home with him, Ralph has had a tremendous impact on the paranormal world.

This is the ninth official episode, breaking down the 1974 Pulitzer Prize winning book, The Power Broker by our hero Robert Caro. This week, Roman and Elliott also sit down with Majora Carter, an urban revitalization strategist and real estate developer from the South Bronx. Growing up, she always viewed the neighborhood as a place she had to leave in order to find success. But as she got older, she began to undo some of Robert Moses' legacy, like building Hunt's Point Riverside Park along the Bronx River. She is a champion for bettering neighborhoods like the South Bronx, so that they are places where people want to remain—even when they have been ruined by a tyrant.On today's show, Elliott Kalan and Roman Mars will cover the third section of Part 6 (Chapter 35 through Chapter 38), discussing the major story beats and themes. The Power Broker #09: Majora CarterJoin the discussion on Discord and our Subreddit.
