  1. Here's an update from today's paper, but no real new info given.

     

    Fair official: Suspect didn't work for us

    The Rochester man accused of trying to kidnap a 5-year-old girl at the New York State Fair Monday probably was not employed at the fair, said fair Director Peter Cappuccilli Jr.

     

    State police charged John B. Weiner, 41, with attempted second-degree kidnapping.

     

    Cappuccilli said he considered it "highly unlikely" that Weiner worked at the fair in any capacity.

     

    Weiner is accused of taking the hand of a young girl and leading her away from her mother, who was filling out a petition on Restaurant Row. The mother quickly noticed and took back the girl.

     

    "He definitely wasn't working for the fair itself," Cappuccilli said of Weiner.

     

    State police have said they believe Weiner was in the Syracuse area for several weeks leading up to the incident.

     

    Investigators from the Syracuse police department are examining the case to see if it is related to the Brittany Fish case, Sgt. Tom Connellan said.

     

    Brittany Fish, a 5-year-old Syracuse girl, was kidnapped April 24 from her neighborhood and found alive the next day in DeWitt. Her kidnapper has not been found.

     

    Weiner appeared in Geddes Town Court Wednesday morning. Justice Daniel Mathews III appointed lawyer Ezequiel Neuman to represent Weiner.

     

    Weiner is due back in court Friday for a preliminary hearing unless his case goes to a grand jury before that, Neuman said.

  3. Now, I'm not familiar with their "open container" law (if they have one in O.P.)... but last I knew, the O.P.P.D. doesn't have the right to tell private landowners whether or not they can turn their yards into parking lots.

    I don't know exactly, but during one of my conversations with Hammer about TBD Tailgate V, he mentioned something about needing a permit for having parking at private homes so close to the stadium.

  4. You all never let this part of the tailgate down.  This year I haven't heard from that many about items that they are bringing for the two raffles that we do.

    I went and picked up my usual item for the raffle today. I may have a few more items, gotta go through my boxes from moving to make sure.
