(Personal note:  Now is the time for the Mayor of Norwalk, Cherie Kelley to call a summit meeting to openly talk about the rash of murders that have taken place Norwalk during the past six months involving our children.  Enough is enough.  What do you think?  Can the City of Norwalk be more pro-active on this issue? Do you feel safe in Norwalk?

Markie Valle is my cousin. He was/Is a good kid. He would do anything for anyone. In reference to your question... No way... I moved out of Norwalk in 98 after my best friend, William "billy" meikle was shot and killed. I walked every inch of the city without fear until that day. The sad thing is the people of Norwalk are GOOD people it's the local police that corrupt it. They have made it what it is today by there profiling people and killing them because they feel they are the threat to their existence. They are the ones that are to protect and serve and instead have divided a city for life. So when we ask when will the shootings stop.. Well when will we make our police officers that accountability for destroying the city and making it what it is today a city in fear for its kids and its future. http://articles.latimes.com/1998/apr/24/local/me-42525
