Police officers were taped joking about a dying, homeless Guatemalan immigrant after he was found on the side of a deserted road in their suburban town, a television station reported.

A homeless immigrant found dying by a deserted road had asked a police officer to take him there because he was trying to avoid a man he had menaced a few days before, the officer’s lawyer told a newspaper.
Mount Kisco Police Officer George Bubaris has pleaded not guilty to manslaughter charges in the death of Rene Perez, who was from Guatemala. The case has raised questions about police treatment of immigrants in suburbs north of New York City.

“You wanna hear something really funny? … He’s alive “ a Bedford police officer tells a sergeant on a taped phone call. The 42-year-old Perez had a history making drunken 911 calls, and he’d had a series of contacts with police in Mount Kisco and neighboring Bedford on the night he died. Bedford police had taken him into Mount Kisco , hours later, prosecutors say, Bubaris drove Perez back to Bedford, dealt him a deadly blow to the abdomen and abandoned him to die.

    Manslaughter? Sounds more like murder.

    Okay, Perez was a jerk and, especially to cops, an obnoxious jerk. A drunken 911 call can tie up the line someone needs to report a real emergency. But that doesn’t give anybody, especially a cop, the right to jab him in the belly with a baton, which seems to have been the case, to say nothing of leaving him to die afterwards. This is capital murder, as far as I’m concerned. And I’m an ex-cop. I’m commenting as anonymous because I don’t meet any of the other categories, but I’m Anne Wingate, formerly Martha Webb.

    this is the reason that no one cares to much when a cop dies. because of scum buckets like this.

  7. GentleGiantsResQ says:

    No where in this does it read AT ALL that the cop was even accused of assauting this man. It says he was FOUND on the side of the road, and his condition was joked about. Rude? Sure- but as a Paramedic I can tell you that you learn to deal with difficult people with a touch of dark humor. Do bums ask cops to drive them places? Yes, all the time. So where are you reading that some cop beat him to death? If he was avoiding someone in another area of town, maybe THAT person assaulted him before or after he was dropped off.
    Remember innocent into PROVEN guilty, anyone?

    Say what? Did you read the same article as I did? Where it said this?…

    “Bedford police had taken him into Mount Kisco , hours later, prosecutors say, Bubaris drove Perez back to Bedford, dealt him a deadly blow to the abdomen and abandoned him to die.”

    Did you catch that part where it said “PROSECUTORS say”? Not witnesses, not conjecture, not anonymous and unsubstantiated allegations…. PROSECUTORS. Tell me, do prosecutors typically go after police on spurious grounds? No, they don’t.

    On this at least, your reading comprehension seems to have suffered a misfire. Be more observant.

    It’s interesting that you don’t mention that Perez had been complaining of stomach pain, before Bubaris ever picked him up. There are witnesses to this fact. I guess it’s a better story if you let people think the cop struck him.

    Well for one thing, I would like everyone to remember. When someone excepts a job working with the Public, you are considered a Public Servant. Police Officers are not any different. Of course they, are representatives of Law Enforcement and it should be their “first duty” to protect and serve.

    I think it’s disgusting that people don’t seem to care when someone is killed anymore. It’s become that common-place that we don’t even blink when we hear someone’s died at the hands of someone else.
    Murder is serious and we should be shocked each and every time we hear about someone murdering someone else.

    always always accusing the police…..when you need them you expect them to run.You hear something about a bad cop and suddenly every officer is on trial.Look around you…do you know who your next door neighbor is,your children’s teachers,preachers,bus drivers. Who are you going to ask for help when you’re in need…the police….they are people too and yeah sure let the one’s who have done wrong be punished but don’t judge all of them with a handful of bad cops…cause next time you pick up the phone and dial 911 you better hope that they can’t read your mind because if i knew you hated police officers i wouldn’t even show up at your door step; now would that make me a bad cop? why call the police if you hate them deal with what ever you’re dealing with on your own. Let the police officers help those who are in need and believe in what they actually do…..

    Yeah that’s right you fucking idiot… THAT’S why everyone’s outraged over police brutality, because we’ve ALL BEEN ARRESTED BEFORE! Christ almighty… you cannot possibly be that stupid. NOBODY can be that stupid and not be unconscious. So, according to you, anyone enraged over a cop sadistically murdering a person could only feel that way because they were once cuffed and stuffed themselves. That your claim, genius?

    Honest, Hard-Working Cops
    Get The Shaft In Westchester

    Last Thursday, February 5th, was not a good day for law enforcement in Westchester County. Two fine police officers, one a seven-
    year veteran of the Harrison Police Department, Steve Heisler, the other, Steve Bonura, a 27-year veteran of the Pleasantville Police Department, each saw the end of their service as police officers in their community.

    Each was removed by a cowardly means; Heisler for his failure to go along with bogus, retaliatory charges lodged against a fellow Harrison
    police officer, Ralph Tancredi, by top police brass, Bonura because pressure was applied to his police chief by DA Janet DiFiore in retaliation for his justified critical comments.

    District Attorney Janet Di-Fiore has created an environment in which dedicated, law-abiding police officers know that, at any moment, they can be sacrificed on the altar of political conspiracy; the deals struck between the DA and chiefs and commissioners of police departments throughout the County.

    In Detective Sergeant Bonura’s case, all it took was a phone call from DiFiore telling Pleasantville Police Chief Anthony Chiarlitti to “Jump”
    for him to ask, “How high?” She wanted Bonura’s head because his truthful criticism of the DA’s Office’s repeated willingness to turn loose a career criminal to again burglarize and endanger the community was more truth than she could handle. With a wife and five children
    to support, the cynical and cowardly Village Board knew it would only be a short time before he would be compelled to file for retirement.

    Nevermind Bonura’s brilliant 27 years of service to the Pleasantville community, senior citizens and youngsters alike. Nevermind his and his
    partner, Officer DiMaio’s, excellent work as Village Youth Officers, proven, capable officers like them must come along every day to see the haste with which the Village Board couldn’t wait to gratify our vindictive, wholly incompetent, and untruthful, district attorney.

    In Officer Heisler’s case, it might appear, at first glance, that his discharge was merely an in-house matter. But it was far from it. Heisler was one of the 12 members of the larger Harrison PBA who had brought complaints of unlawful audio and video recording in the locker room at
    Police Headquarters as well as the confiscation of PBA funds, by Chief Hall, Captain Marraccini, and others, to the DA, only to be ignored because the chief and the captain were not only significant contributors, but organizers and spokesmen for her installation as DA in 2005.

    Further-more, Heisler was unwilling to go along with the kangaroo court proceedings invoked against Officer Tancredi, then-President of the
    Harrison PBA, in retaliation for his union activity. After all, DiFiore had dispatched one of her most corrupted ADAs, Barbara Egenhauser, in an attempt to suborn perjury from Tancredi’s girlfriend, as she shoved an unwanted Order Of Protection on her. Heisler’s dismissal was more a product of the political makeup of the Harrison Town Board, the vote having been three to two in favor of dismissal with all three Republican members going against Heisler as they no doubt will against Tancredi, given the chance.

    Janet DiFiore, truth be told, has no regard for good cops. To her, they are merely pawns to be played and manipulated, one way or another in furtherance of her self-promotional agenda. Look at her handling of Mount Kisco Police Officer George Bubaris, following the death of homeless immigrant Rene Perez. When the pressure from the Latino community became too great, she needed a scapegoat, and George Bubaris, low man on the totem pole, was it.

    Three of her top prosecutors, Jim McCarty, Perry Perone, and Michael Delohery, all experienced and accomplished liars before a jury, came to trial with their tank on empty; and, try as they may for their counterfeit boss, they couldn’t fool 12 intelligent jurors. Of course, although
    the trial outcome was vindicating to Bubaris, his career was ruined and he and his wife were put through extraordinary expenses and heartache they will be years recovering from.

    Let us not forget her all-out effort to defend the bogus prosecution of former New York City Transit Police Officer Richard DiGuglielmo. She
    was in the DA’s Office in October 1996 when the tragic incident that compelled Officer DiGuglielmo to “fire three shots to center mass” as a
    bat-wielding assailant attacked his middle-aged father. She was in the office and knew damned well the lies and the pressure that were forced upon the three eyewitnesses to the self-defense shooting.

    The wrongful conviction that emerged from the trial, finally overturned by a brilliant decision after more than 10 years, by an evidentiary hearing that lasted for eight days, continues to be mindlessly challenged by DiFiore, who knows very well just how much prosecutorial misconduct went into the wrongful conviction.

    Then there is DA DiFiore’s disrespectful handling and manipulation of the tragic death of Mount Vernon Detective Christopher Ridley, who paid with his life to respond to a criminal event as we would wish every dedicated police officer would want to respond. It is becoming increasingly apparent, one year after the terrible incident, why DiFiore continues to keep the tapes of the young officer’s killing, at the hands of four County police officers, out of public view, and why she refuses to turn over his clothing and his wallet to his family.

    The truth is, our District Attorney, installed by political operatives more than three years ago, had such political obligation to people such as Tom Belfiore, Nick Spano, Andy Spano, Edmund Hartnett, Phil Amicone, and so many more scoundrels that she preferred to characterize
    Officer Ridley’s actions on January 25, 2008 as reckless and unprofessional. She had no problem filling in with lies about his badge where necessary, all for the purpose of keeping the damaging truth from coming out. In fact, she reasoned it was better to protect the reputations
    of her co-conspirators than that of an heroic young cop, the likes of which doesn’t come along every day.

    In fairness, we must point out that it’s not as though DA DiFiore is cruel and unfair toward all police officers in Westchester. There are those officers, and departments, whose actions she continues to cover up and protect. She will go all-out for the Yonkers Police Department, and officers the likes of Wayne Simoes, no matter how brutally and wrongfully they may have dealt with innocent citizens.

    Not only will the Westchester DA ignore irrefutable evidence of police brutality such as the Irma Marquez tape, but she will also prosecute the innocent victims as well. It is obvious that there is an unhealthy incestuousness about the DA’s relationship with certain police Departments, and, Yonkers is a prime example. It is mind-boggling that, in light of the evidence, it required “a jury of her peers” to acquit Ms. Marquez of the charges maliciously brought against her, and it took the United States Attorney’s Office to apprehend, and prosecute,
    Wayne Simoes, the rogue, violent cop.

    The Guardian discovered, and publicly exposed, the violence problem in Yonkers, and the Westchester DA’s failure to protect Constitutionally-violated individuals in that city two and a half years ago. It is a simple fact that under DA Janet DiFiore, honest, hard-working police officers get the shaft in Westchester, and brutal rogues get covered up. Voters will need to deal with that problem directly
    come November

    I have never been arrested and don’t plan to be.

    I had an off-duty deputy try to RAPE me when I was 12 years old…. so I learned early that cops are no less dangerous than any OTHER thugs.

    I have met a FEW good ones… but most at bat-shit NUTS… which helps explain why they became cops in the first place. If you ain’t nuts when you start, you damn sure will be by the time you get your first promotion!

    I won’t willingly let a cop beat me, though. If it ever happens, I have no illusions… as far as I’m concerned, we’re both gonna die.

    Two police officer’s named Eric Carlson and John Ray broke into my home and they raped my daughter Kayle Wagar and they planted child porn on our computer and they poisoned my coffee cup and coffee pot!

    They bragged about this at Clackamas Walmart and then they printed out flyers giving me the blame for their crimes and they distributed those flyers in my neighborhood destroying my reputation!

    They did all this on one day in March 26th 2007, and they call this activity pedofying, meaning they do whatever they have to do to destroy their targets reputation so no one will care if their target is murdered, and these cops/pedofyers are more than happy to commit the crimes themselves!

    My wife Joan Wagar was having an affair with Eric Carlson and she helped them to break into our home so they could rape our daughter and to frame me for it!

    This is a common form of murder commited by Portland police officer’s and their caught bragging about it to their bro’s at Clackamas Walmart!

    Cops brag pedofying people gets them killed off, that’s admitting to premeditated murder their admitting to!
    Cops never do this alone, they have the support of their emtire police department when it comes to cops framing people, which is why very few people hear of these crimes because police cover up all complaints of these crimes and news media is mums the word about it!
