I meet the late Mr. Green about two weeks ago on a call. He had been beaten after admiting that he smoked someones crack. He refused to make a report. Its was my understanding that the late Mr. Green has been a fixture in the Billingsley Rd. area for sometime and has a long arrest history.

Green must have met Judge Norelli! 17 arrests on his record since '04? Outrageous.

Wow you people are so cruel and harsh. I mean yes he had a lengthy criminal record and yes the world may be safer but this is a human life we are talking about good or bad, have some empathy for others. while you may not feel for his murder, be considerate of his family who are innocent victims just like you or i in this situation.

Yes it is sad his life took such a turn. I guess now both he and his family will not suffer the painful ruin that he brought on him self and others. his family will no longer have to face the shame of him carjacking someone again robbery, and the list gos on. What society and jail could not change or stop, his own life style did.

I knew him ,and when he was on crack he was definatley dangerous,but when he wasn't high or whatever ,he'd give you last dime.
Drugs create so much havoc , chaos
and disruption to lives.I avoided him ,but my condolences go to his family ,and hopes that other young men can still change their life before it's too late.
