@CityOfPeekskill The green duck weed in lake Mitchell looks wonderful.

A great time was had at the Waters of Inspiration event on Saturday at the Riverfront and Depew Park! Attendees enjoyed a boat tour and a Depew Park tour that explored the history and various water-quality initiatives in the Peekskill watershed.

@BinghamtonNow They should shut that airport down. One lousy flight a day

BGM TO DTW: Delta has resumed daily service from Binghamton to Detroit. SkyWest 3792 departed at 2: 26 pm, according to FlightAware.

@BinghamtonNow Still true today

SKYROCKETING HEAT BILLS: 50 years ago, Binghamton residents could express themselves using this Cube in front of the downtown Federal Building. Local officials later ordered the Cube removed. They found the messages rather annoying.

@FranPotenz52656 @sportingnews 10th place and we don’t have to hear his name ever again. Hope he learned not to talk politics in sport

@sportingnews He prepared his whole life for a sport. It came time to talk about his sport & he took the bait & got political. Many athletes took the high road & spoke only about their sport when asked a political question. He got what he deserved, 10th place.Maybe He is a loser after all.

Hunter Hess says he flashed an L after his Olympic halfpipe qualifying run as a response to Donald Trump's comments about him. "Apparently, I'm a loser." Hess added: "I worked so hard to be here. I sacrificed my entire life to make this happen. I'm not going to let controversy like that get in my way. I love the United States of America. I cannot say that enough. My original statement, I felt like I said that, but apparently people didn't take it that way. I'm so happy to be here, so happy to represent Team USA." 📸: Christian Stadler / Action Press

@BinghamtonNow That place is a joke and they keep dumping money into that airport for why?

BGM LOSING SERVICE: Delta Air LInes is dropping its one daily flight between Binghamton and Detroit. This video from November 2024 shows a Delta Connection commuter jet arriving at the BGM Airport terminal. Read the latest update in this WNBF News story: wnbf.com/delta-drops-bi…

@JasonBNicholas The thugs of the beat up squad are in Elmira now!

The Free Lance News in the New Yorker "J. B. Nicholas runs a news website called The Free Lance from his home in upstate New York, and, near the end of last year, he started obsessively tracking one story: a man confined at a state prison outside of Utica had died in early December after an encounter with correction officers. Reporting on a prison death can be tricky, but, in this case, there was evidence that rarely exists—video footage.

@GolfDigest Everyone played the same golf course.wet, fast, slow, dry,wind, etc. Some days you just play bad.

According to Justin Thomas, the grounds crew "fought" and "argued" with the team about the green speeds at Bethpage Black. 😳 More: glfdig.st/2kNL50XAmBv

@JasonBNicholas Nice job covering all of this JB, from the days after to sentencing. Thank you

Four white state correction officers who pleaded guilty to manslaughter for killing a black prisoner in an upstate New York  correctional facility last December were sentenced to prison Friday morning. Anthony Farina, who led the beat-up squad that first tortured then finally killed Robert Brooks at the medium-security Marcy Correctional Facility, and fellow beat-up squad member Nicholas Anzalone, were sentenced by Oneida County judge Robert Bauer to 22 years, each. "I've been at this a long time. I've seen a lot of terrible things in this room," judge Bauer said in his Utica courtroom when he sentenced Anzalone. "I have never seen so many lives destroyed in a moment." thefreelancenews.org/home/4-more-gu…

@BinghamtonNow That airport is a joke , biggest waste of money for the one flight a day.

DELTA DL 4146: Scrapped on Sunday... Maybe on Monday. Uncertainty swirling around the friendly skies between Binghamton and Detroit.

@JasonBNicholas JB- check this out youtu.be/vKvArjMJzmU?si…

There were a number of irregularities in the trial 3 prison guards for murdering Robert Brooks. I detail them here youtu.be/XMzH4uAmPp4?si…

@NewYorker Great article, looked it up in the New Yorker, it would be great if we can find out how the COs adapt to a different kind of prison life.

In this week’s issue, Jennifer Gonnerman speaks with incarcerated people, formerly incarcerated activists, and striking corrections officers about a system at its breaking point. newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…

In early December, a man confined at a state prison outside of Utica died after an encounter with correction officers. Such deaths can be hard to investigate, but in this case, there was evidence: body-camera footage. newyorker.com/magazine/2025/…

@jrwhitusa @MaryKCNY @CNYCentral They, meaning the two acquitted. I respect the process of our system⚖️

@jrwhitusa @MaryKCNY @CNYCentral I have to agree with you, they shouldn’t have been put away for 25yrs. Just wish someone called for help. Ny needs to do better inside the walls

Says he directed CO Galliher to leave the infirmary room and get leg restraints. Then he placed them on brooks. Is there any reason for him to be restrained, Special Prosectutor DA Fitzpatrick asks Trombly. “No,” he said. @CNYCentral

@Jaeda3000 @JasonBNicholas I can’t either … making me nervous that they won’t get what they should

@JasonBNicholas Can’t believe it’s taking this long. SMH

Still waiting for a verdict in the trial of 3 state prison guards charged with killing Robert Brooks. For the latest, read this thefreelancenews.org/home/prison-be…

@kimmyjoe222 @UR_Sentinel Look at the Freelance by JB Nicholas , the judge only allowed opening and closing statements

@UR_Sentinel youtu.be/4_Am-7dF8dQ This is opening arguments while the officers body cams are playing. This is how I just found out about the case. Do you happen to know why the entire trial wasn't televised?

Defense attorney Luke Nebush is giving the first closing argument in the Robert Brooks Murder Trial, in defense of David Kingsley.

@JasonBNicholas Brooks Jr. hearing that the man who had his hands on his dad the most was ordered to go to the hospital with Robert Brooks sr. Must be upsetting.

12:28PM Luke Nebush, Kingsley's attorney, is now cross-examining Trombly. He gets Trombly to admit he ordered Kingsley to start CPR and then activate their body cameras. Trombly also ordered Kingsley to go with Brooks to the hospital.

ROBERT BROOKS' KILLERS' TRIAL LIVE BLOG DAY 5 10:06PM Former Sgt. Glenn Trombly has taken the witness stand. Trombly was the sergeant inside Marcy's "emergency room" who stood by while guards under his command killed Robert Brooks. In exchange for his testimony, Special Prosecutor William F. Fitzpatrick promised Trombly a sentence of no greater than 4 years in prison for his plea of guilty to attempted gang assault. thefreelancenews.org/home/robert-br…

@derby51598 @JasonBNicholas He didn’t do the right thing when a man is getting beaten to death. He could have called the state police and said this is out of hand. Common sense was not in the room that night.

@JasonBNicholas He didn’t anything wrong besides what he was instructed to do!

@jrwhitusa @MaryKCNY @CNYCentral They are all dirt bags and should be locked up. Killed a man for sport.

@MaryKCNY @CNYCentral As a former CO I speak out against the actions. how do you use a key “witness” who can’t be trustworthy? You have 3 people on trial for murder when the main perpetrators have already plead guilty. Trombley got a 4 yr sentence when he is a dirt bag boss.

@JasonBNicholas No more than 4 years? I hope they all have nightmares over this, making jokes as they kill a man that can’t defend himself🥹

10:19AM Trombly is testify he supervised the attempted cover-up of Brooks' killing. "I told them they should get their stories straight," Trombly testified. "I directed them several times to make alterations to their reports to justify the injuries to Mr. Brooks."
