386ds agoNassau police say the department saw a 29% jump in the number of weapons being
taken off the streets in 2021.
More than 60 illegal weapons were
on display at Nassau headquarters Monday.
Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder
says most of those guns made their way to Nassau from
New York City or other states.
He says most were seized during
routine traffic stops.
Ryder also says that 17 of the 121
arrests had no bail requested because of the Bail Reform Act.
"The reality is criminals have
more rights in New York state than victims," said Nassau County Executive
Bruce Blakeman.
Blakeman says he is going to Albany
Tuesday to talk to the governor about repealing the Bail Reform Act.
