crime

If you're wondering where the report is on all of the arrests at the Beach Boys concert at Darien Lake on Friday, here's a news flash: There weren't any.

Apparently, nobody urinated on another patron, nobody was arrested for trespass for jumping a fence to get backstage, nobody tried to shoplift from a vendor and nobody took a swing at a security guard.

There weren't even any citations issued for underage drinking.

Perhaps less surprising, there were also weren't any citations issued for unlawful possession of marijuana.

"It was a completely different crowd than what we usually deal with," said Sgt. Steve Mullen, of the Sheriff's Office.

Mullen said people entered the venue in an orderly manner -- forming a single line instead of the usual "mosh pit" of pushing and shoving to enter -- and alcohol consumption was mostly confined a couple of beers or a glass or two of wine (people brought their own glasses).

"They even picked up after themselves," Mullen said.

One deputy we spoke to said concertgoers even thanked him for being there.

The evening wasn't without conflicts. Getting out of the Darien Lake parking lot is apparently a frustrating exercise even on a night when the band draws less than 8,000 people.

One patron, Janice O'Rouke, posted on the D&C's Web site that the situation in the parking lot was "ugly," but what she describes was really pretty tame compared to what might occur at a Brad Paisley or Drake show.

Chief Deputy Gordon Dibble confirmed there were some tense moments in the parking lot as people tried to leave, but only one or two confrontations and "certainly less than normal."

Dibble:

No one would ever describe the parking lot situation as pleasant or fast, I'm sure. Thousands of vehicles exiting onto one state highway and one county road will never be pleasant or fast by any stretch of the imagination. The parking lot funneling to the exits will always cause conflict that sometimes becomes physical. Alcohol abuse is a significant factor. 

The Sheriff's Office routinely has as many as 10 deputies directing traffic at the end of the concerts with the goal of getting everyone out as quickly and as safely as humanly possible and yet it will take the last of the patrons as much as two hours to get on the road from a large concert.

Accidents in the traffic pattern will pull deputies from traffic direction duty and cause additional back ups. The State Police also have patrols in the area working to keep traffic moving. Traffic backed up to the park from the Village of Corfu is common even though the Corfu PD assists traffic through their village as best they can. 

Private parking lots along Sumner Road result in gridlock and heavy foot traffic mixed in with bumper-to-bumper vehicle traffic in poor lighting with no sidewalks and narrow, unimproved shoulders. 

People need to understand the limitations at this venue, study the routes in and out, be prepared to take an alternate route and expect delays both getting there and leaving. 

This is a very difficult venue to manage under these conditions.  

Even with the inherant difficulties with the venue, Dibble said, the crowd Friday was very easy to work with.

"While the parking lots are usually littered with bottles and cans after a concert, there were few and far between at the end of this one," Dibble said. "People were polite and considerate as they entered and left."

Mullen agreed.

"It was a mature crowd," Mullen said. "They were there to enjoy the concert and have a good time and not cause anybody else problems. It was an honor to be there to serve them and they were glad to have us there."

A 31-year-old Le Roy man who lives on School Street was arrested Wednesday and charged with one count each of criminal possession of a weapon, 4th, menacing, 2nd, and criminal possession of a controlled substance, 7th. All are Class A misdemeanors.

Tommy L. Mobley was arrested by Le Roy police after a reported disturbance on Hilltop Drive in the village in which he was allegedly chasing another person down the street with his vehicle. He also allegedly confronted the victim with a knife, threatening the victim and placing that person in fear of injury, according to information from Det. John Condidorio.

The disturbance allegedly started when Mobley thought the victim had unlawfully entered a relative's residence. During the investigation, a knife and cocaine were found, allegedly in Mobley's possession. Mobley was arraigned in Le Roy Town Court and released under supervision of Genesee Justice.

Robert Lee Hizer, of East Avon - Lima Road, Avon, is charged with: aggravated driving while intoxicated with a child in the vehicle under age 15 (Leandra's Law); driving while intoxicated; aggravated unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle, 3rd; improper signal; and not wearing a seat belt. Following arraignment, Hizer was jailed on $25,000 cash bail or $50,000 bond. The charges stem from the 32-year-old's alleged robbery of a convenience store on Lake Street in Le Roy on the morning of June 23, and then leading police on a pursuit. He is scheduled to appear in Le Roy Town Court at 1 p.m. on Monday, July 9. The case was investigated by Deputy Jason E. Saile.

Eric R. Swede, 24, of Perry Road, Pavilion, was arrested by Wyoming County Sheriff's deputies at his home on June 26 on an outstanding warrant for a violation of probation. He was arraigned in the Town of Covington Court and committed to the Wyoming County Jail without bail. He is scheduled to appear in the Covington courtroom on July 2 for further proceedings.

Kyle W. Nash, 24, of Route 5,  Stafford, is charged with criminal contempt, 2nd, for allegedly violating a stay away court order of protection which was issued June 25. The following day, he allegedly entered the residence of the protected person. He was issued an appearance ticket for July 3 in Stafford Town Court. The case was investigated by Deputy Frank Bordonaro.

In Genesee County Court today, attorney Earl Key, representing Jacquetta Simmons, the 26-year-old Batavia resident accused of punching a 70-year-old Walmart employee on Christmas Eve, asked Judge Robert C. Noonan a series of specific questions about how juries are selected in his courtroom.

Key was there with co-counsel Ann Nichols and Simmons for a hearing on motions filed by the defense and as things were wrapping up, Key wanted to be sure he understood Noonan's ground rules.

The information will be important because outside of court after the hearing, Key told reporters, "I definitely intend to go to trial."

From the time Key was first retained to represent Simmons, he's said there's more to the case than has been reported in the media.

Asked to elaborate, especially in context of having now reviewed video surveillance tapes from Dec. 24, Key's only example of misinformation was that it's been reported that the victim, Walmart employee Grace Suozzi, was near the front door working as a greeter. She was actually working as a cashier that day.

Asked if the tape showed anything else, such as whether Souzzi grabbed the bag from Simmons, Key said, "I'll let that come out at trial."

Today's hearing was scheduled to cover a series of motions filed by Key, including a challenge to the constitutionality of a section of New York law that makes it a felony for a younger person to hit somebody over age 65.

This motion was supposed to be heard a week ago, but the Attorney General's Office was not notified of the challenge as required by law.

The AG's office has now been notified, but the letter did not include notice of today's scheduled hearing, so Noonan set another date, July 16, for the hearing.

Noonan said if history is any indication, the AG's office will not send a representative to the hearing, but rather write the court and inform Noonan that it opposes the challenge but reserves the right to appeal if Noonan finds the law unconstitutional.

This is at least the second time the law has been challenged by a defense attorney. The first time was in Queens, and that attorney lost his motion, but Key said he's raising two additional matters not addressed by the previous attorney.

While he declined to elaborate on the differences, Key said the main issue he is challenging is the vague language of the statute.

"It's vague in meaning and unclear," Key said. "It’s unclear if our client had to know if the alleged victim was 65 years of age. That’s the real question here."

If there is a trial, jury selection will begin Aug. 20 in county court.

The July 16 hearing will also be the last opportunity for Simmons to accept any possible or potential plea offer. If no plea agreement is reached before Simmons leaves court July 16, she will either go to trial or have to accept an unconditional plea.

John A. Cabrera Jr., 22, with no permanent address, is charged with criminal mischief, petit larceny and conspiracy; Rosemary R. Waters, 26, with no permanent address, is charged with criminal possession of stolen property and conspiracy.

A concerned Genesee County mother has helped put a child pornographer -- an Irish national living in New Jersey -- in federal prison, according to John Dehm, juvenile officer for the Sheriff's Office.

The mother contacted Dehm more than two years ago, upset because her daughter had been coerced into sending nude pictures of herself to a 14-year-old boy she met on Facebook.

Dehm decided to try and confirm the boy's identity.

The investigator was able to contact one of the 14-year-old's Facebook friends in Colorado and question him about his knowledge of the boy.

The Colorado teen was certain, he said, that the 14-year-old boy attended his school.

When Dehm checked with school officials, no children by that name were registered there.

Through his investigation, Dehm was able to determine that the suspect was an adult male posing as a teenager who'd built up clusters of online contacts on Facebook and other sites throughout the United States.

Seeing where the case was headed, Dehm contacted the FBI.

Federal investigators identified the suspect as Farrell Corrway, now 29, and began monitoring his online activity.

When Corrway announced on Facebook his intention to return to Ireland, the FBI contacted ICE and agents placed him on a watch list.

On Sept. 7, 2010 Corrway checked in for his flight in Newark and border agents pulled him aside and asked him if there was anything in his bags he would be concerned about letting them look at.

Corrway became visibly nervous, Dehm said.

Agents conducted a search of Corrway's belongings and detected several images of child pornography on an external hard drive in his possession.

An eventual forensic examination of the hard drive would reveal more than 600 images, some of them quite disturbing, according to one report.

Corrway entered a guilty plea in federal court May 31 to one count of transportation of child pornography. He faces from five to 20 years in federal prison. Sentencing is set for Sept. 11.

Corrway was in the U.S. on a travel visa. It was his second trip to America, with the first as part of a 24-month cultural exchange with Ireland known as the "Walsh Visa Program."

Dehm said the case points out the need for parents to be vigilant about their children's online activity.

There are people out there, he said, who will pose as a cool, 14-year-old kid to compromise the safety of children.

A 32-year-old Monroe County resident is accused of robbing a gas station on Lake Street on Saturday morning, and then leading police on a pursuit. He may also face drunken driving charges under Leandra's Law.

Robert Lee Hizer, who police believe has been staying temporarily at a residence in Le Roy, allegedly walked into the convenience store of the gas station and handed the clerk a note demanding cash and cigarettes.

While Hizer initially fled on foot, police believe he got into a car, which a witness quickly identified and responding units -- which included Le Roy PD, Sheriff's deputies and State troopers -- were provided the description.

A short time after the 9:27 a.m. robbery report, a police officer attempted to stop the suspect's vehicle, but the driver allegedly sped to School Street, stopped the car and fled on foot.

Officers pursued the suspect on foot on School Street, Mill Street and into the Oatka Creek.

Hizer was apprehended as he came out of the creek on the east side, at which time officers identified him as the suspect in the robbery.

Hizer is charged with one count of robbery, 3rd, and may face drunken driving charges under Leandra's Law for allegedly driving drunk with a child under age 16 in his car. He may also be charged with endangering the welfare of child.
