No, it never made the media, the West side no surprise there. My family member was basically told , you survived. Get over it! They could care less about crime victims. We lived it! They acted irritated honestly. Before what happened to our family, we could never have imagined such behavior even existed. There was not an ounce of compassion for the victim here. Others said, get use to it and now you know how we have felt for so long. I feel for crime victims in today's world because if it doesn't happen to them, they don't care. Also, if you know the right people , they act like nothing happened! Everybody should be treated fairly , If we were up the ladder more, like they want to believe they are. we believe things would have been a lot different. Will our family ever get justice, we pray for that. This system is broken, badly broken! Treat people fairly, it's more than time for that.

I had an unfortunate meeting with State Trooper Balchane today. Around 2:30 p.m. on July 12, 2015,…read moreI reported a black dog in a leather interiored car on paved Main Street, Susquehanna, PA, temperature about 81 degrees. Several follow up calls were made since no one responded. I was assured that the police were "working on it". Around 4:15 p.m., Trooper Balchane pulled up beside me. Only problem is the occupants showed up 5 minutes earlier. They had come out of a bar and were clearly intoxicated. I told them that the state police had been notified and provided the plate number. They laughed and left. Trooper Balchane shrugged his shoulders numerous times and explained that there was a shift change, he had another call, blah, blah, blah. He showed absolutely no concern for this dog who had been in this vehicle for more than 1 1/2 hours while her caretakers were in a bar. We are directed not to take the law into our own hands, call the police, stay with the dog, etc. I did ALL of these things, and yet received no help on behalf of this poor dog. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, GIBSON STATE POLICE????????? YOU MAKE ME SICK!!!!!!!!

I had my fly down when I first got pulled over, and they cited me for an "Escaped Piece." But this…read moreis not a review of my Escaped Piece. It's the State Police. I didn't come up with this listing name, it was already on Yelp like this. Don't blame me. I've never had any good experiences with the state police. I think once or twice they let me off without a ticket, and then a few other times they gave me pretty hefty tickets. Near my house, they pull me over all the time - and many others - as a form of harrassment. For doing absolutely nothing. It usually seems like daylight robbery, by a bunch of sharks to be honest. I've seen guys in big trucks doing absolutely stupid things that risk everybody's lives as well as semis right in front of the cops and they don't do anything because they're only really interested in pulling you over at the moments when they happen to be shooting radar and hiding out somewhere. If you're doing 12 miles over the limit they're happy to take a bunch of money off you. I had my wallet stolen from a rest stop and the Amherst police later help me figure out who did it. But the police they were actually at the rest stop had absolutely no interest in it. That was yet another branch of this wonderful State Police Service.

My name is Jonathan S., I had the unfortunate experience to interact with officer Gallagher from…read morethe Dickson City, PA police department on 10/3/24. My driving was impeccable that evening. I'm 52 and a professional truck driver with approximately one million miles of flawless driving. Therefore, I know my driving was perfect the evening of 10/3/24, and virtually every time behind the wheel. I was pulled over because officer Gallagher had nothing better to do than to tail someone who was driving absolutely fine and run their license plate. My registration was expired. He also said my license was suspended, which was not accurate. I have a NY state driver's license and it definitely was not suspended. Anyway, he stated without question, that if I took care of the registration and the issue with PennDOT, he would dismiss the two tickets he issued me. Then when I went to traffic court on 3/3/25, he failed to honor his word. Not only did he fail to honor his word, he used infractions from my teens and twenties (decades ago) to justify his actions. That's absurd! He's absurd! Not only is he not a man of his word, he's a subpar officer and human being. I'm not saying that technically there wasn't a legitimate infraction, what I'm saying is that he lied to me. He shouldn't say things that he doesn't intend to follow through with. He should also do worthwhile police work and not harass people who are driving perfectly and stone-sober. He acted like a robot in court, obsessed with extracting money from people without the ability to assess the situation and exercise any discretion. I used to wholeheartedly support the police. I still do support them, though now it's halfheartedly. We have a broken system. Officers are way to desperate to generate revenue to maintain their job security. I'm not for defunding the police, I'm for fully funding the police. Taxes wouldn't need to be raised either, just trim some of the fat from the local government. I could write pages about that nonsense, though I'll refrain. Anyway, traffic court was a circus in Dickson City yesterday! They had so many people in there, it was a money making mill! All to raise revenue on the backs of the hurting, so the suits in the courtroom can chase their American dream. That's sick! We have a majorly flawed system that needs fixed. Until it is fixed, I encourage all officers to stand with the utmost integrity, and only say things that they fully intend to follow through with. Also use your God given mind to assess situations and exercise a little discretion and compassion when dealing with human beings. If you're thinking about the bottom line at the start of your shift, rather than how you can be a positive force, you're off the mark. I sincerely wish all public servants the best and will be praying for them... even officer Gallagher. Take care and always strive to do your best. Yesterday's mistakes don't define you, you can do great things today! Sincerely, Jonathan S.
