On Nov. 25, 1987 Jesse Friedman, along with his father Arnold, was arrested and charged with child sexual abuse.
The genesis of the case began with a postal sting operation in which Arnold Friedman was found to have child pornography magazines, none of which were self-produced. A Nassau County police investigation was quickly launched with five two-member teams of detectives who conducted interviews with 30 children, students in after school computer classes in the Friedman home.

Village of Great Neck Mayor Ralph J. Kreitzman and the village board of trustees have announced that the 2013 Roadway Program already has been completed and well under budget. The village was able to utilize the Town of North Hempstead’s bid contract to significantly save costs. In addition to saving the costs of preparing a bid package and engineering work, the cost of work was significantly less than the village’s engineers estimate. The program is part of the village’s multi-year initiative to rebuild or repave its over 24 miles of roads. Importantly, because of the significant cost savings, the Village has added the roads it planned to pave in 2014 and 2015 and even more, and much of that work also already has been completed.

On a beautiful Sunday evening June 2, the baseball team from St. Aloysius in Great Neck was matched upon against CYO powerhouse St. Dominic of Oyster Bay. This was the fourth meeting between these two teams over the past two seasons with St. Dom’s having emerged victorious in all of the prior games. And this game appeared to be following the same script with St. Dom’s scoring a run in the first inning followed by one in the fourth and another in the final seventh inning.
