Probation!?!? Hahahahaha I don't know why we even bother to put these cases together. They just get a slap on the wrist with probation and treatment and more probation. It's an absolute waste of time. Now they are talking about deversion programs. Yaaa.....that's going to work (yawn). Put Charles Broch in a deversion program and maybe he'll stop doing his crack cocaine that he's been doing for the last 30 years SMH. This State is an absolute joke!!!

Could some readers provide more information about WHY these people were in Hartford?? Not one of them was a resident. What is the significance of the address they were found at? Thought this was one of the areas to be rehabbed soon via construction/redevelopment projects.
Thanks.

Victim: Jovan Wooten 11/11/1979 of New Britain CT
Victim: Joshua Taylor 02/19/1986 Unknown address, no CT History, recent indication he resided in New Jersey.
Accused: Latroy Johnson 01/05/1977 of Windsor CT

Why were they in Hartford? Because they’re criminals involved in criminal activity......and Hartford is a criminal cesspool.

Whether they were here buying drugs or here headed for Church, the bottom line is that a convicted felon in possession of a firearm ILLEGALLY took two lives using that gun because he had no fear of accountability by the courts after his previous 23 slap on the wrists for his criminal behavior. And yes, there is inherent danger associated with illegal drugs in Hartford, but most of that danger comes from illegal use of firearms which we cant's seem to control or don't want to control or am I missing the public outcry?

There is usually not a public outcry in the City about gun violence. Except for Reverend Henry Brown the majority of the clergy is silent. Many in the public don't talk because of the criminal code of "Stop Snitching", maybe some more people should talk to police to safeguard their neighborhood and city but that gem of an idea eludes them. Others are afraid and many just apathetic.

A couple of examples of public outcry over street gun violence are the following:

1994 drive by shooting murder of 7 year old Marcellina Delgado in what used to be Charter Oak Terrace. That murder was national news and led to a strong crackdown and criminal street gangs.

1997 murder of 4 year old Lydia Gomez who was murdered by an adult cousin and her body hidden under a front porch of a home in Frog Hollow.

Criminals that kill each other usually get Page 20 in the Connecticut section of the Hartford Courant and that activity is shrugged off as regular street life.

Support Hartford Police
Support them in removing violent crooks like LaTroy off the street. There are plenty of such individuals.
People who witness violent crimes should call police. You will make your neighborhood safer.

Have a nice day.

Yes you are right, but i will tell you as I commented before. Its the "bakery" that is the center of the nonsense there. Before this shooting, i exclaimed how dangerous and ridiculous that hotspot is. The city has had numerous referrals on the matter, yet deckine to act. So, nothing will change.
