  1. U need to do slot more cleaning up on temple at Owego NY. The whole strip central to liberty to mcmaster St

  2. I live on Liberty St what they call the good side yet it’s not crack heads it’s meth from what I’ve been told. Spoke to OPD enough times and pointed out the actual house and same with other people on the block. They are more worried picking on the pot heads and I also don’t appreciate that crap but it’s not as bad and can be used for meds. Heck they didn’t do anything but put a guy in jail for a month when my neighbor girls boyfriend got hate crime and had someone from another state control substance and highly intoxicated the one time on Liberty the good side as they call it. By law a hate crime alone is 7 years. So OPD needs to step it up more. Just saying

  3. Kristen u don’t live on Liberty St and u only talked to cops once with me about the issues on the st. It doesn’t matter what you say they won’t do anything about it so there is no need to sit there saying u live even in the town. Okay. Just cool ur jets.
