Luiz Aragon was charged with second-degree harassment and was arraigned in New Rochelle City Court this afternoon,  the District Attorney’s Office confirmed.

He pleaded not guilty and is scheduled to return to city court on Nov. 20.

Harlem woman sues NYCHA over leaks and mold that festered for months

By Articles

While the leak and mold problems appear to have been resolved in her bedroom, Shine said a newer leak has persisted in her living room for months without a visit from NYCHA to repair it.

She is one of hundreds of city housing residents who have lodged complaints, or tickets as they’re known, with NYCHA’s management. Many have struggled over the years to have the Housing Authority address the problem — so much so that in 2013 the city submitted to a consent decree giving a federal judge oversight of the authority’s widespread mold woes.

Hoping to stay mayor of Mount Vernon through September, Richard Thomas claims that the man trying to take his place once bailed out a drug kingpin and then lied about it under oath.

Thomas raises the issue of Andre Wallace’s fitness for office in court documents related to the ongoing saga of who is actually in charge in the city.

“Is this conduct appropriate for a public official? Thomas asked in his bid to block Wallace from acting as mayor. “Should a man who has pledged one million dollars to secure the release on bail of a major drug kingpin, and then lied about it, oversee a municipal police force? No.”

Lynne Patton was in the musty basement of the Patterson Houses next to a rusted cabinet and a bucket of fetid standing water and no longer flashing her customary wide smile.

She was six songs into a no-frills group workout, a free program offered at this public housing development in the Bronx. Sweat poured from under her baseball cap with the presidential seal, and she cursed the pain while television cameras rolled. When the workout ended, she posed for selfies and promised her workout buddies that the years of disrepair in their public housing apartments would soon end.
