After police said a rapist entered a building through a broken door, the iteam went out and found broken locks plaguing the same complex. Chris glorioso learned first hand, many of them seemed beyond repair. Reporter with magnets that often dont work, these unlocked doors practically invite criminals into this Public Housing complex on manhattans lower east side. Its home to thousands of new yorkers, and the iteam has learned more than half of the 2400 apartments are in buildings wide open to strangers, thieves, and thugs. This building also has a broken lock. That one has a broken lock. Reporter mother of two, jazmine terrell, says the busted doors are putting her and her daughters in danger. And thats also not good because, look, babies can open it and run in. There. Reporter two months ago, police say 20yearold robert bowie entered the houses through a broken door, followed a resident to her apartment, and then raped her in her bedroom. The citys Public Housing agency fixed this door after the rape, but last month the iteam we found t of them still had one or more doors broken. Sometimes the magnets are completely busted, and sometimes their just too weak. If you put a little muscle into it, opens easily. Look at this. Doesnt even have a magnet to hold the door shut. In some cases, the pavement next to the door is uneven, so its propped open, and you can just walk right in. Just because the magnet works, doesnt mean the door is secure. This may seem like its locked, theres a hole in the window. All you have to do is press this button. And youre in. Reporter a rep told us the agency is fixing some of the broken locks we found. As of december 30th, there were six doors reported as inoperable at baruch. Work orders were created for all, and those repairs were scheduled to be made by development staff. But they added, these broken doors are unfortunately recurring issues. Too often, security has been put at the back of the line. Reporter but one state senator says theyve failed to fix doors, even when theres funding to replace them. He secured funding four years ago to install a new smart door on this building known as the baruch addition. The new door would use key fobs instead of keys and would alert the nypd if propped open for too long. But he says the contractor has repeatedly missed deadlines. As the fact that the software isnt consistent with itself, i suppose, and that the door cracked on delivery. Reporter other residents say part of the bram for busted doors lies with a few destructive Public Housing residents who often break them as soon as maintenance workers make repairs. After that resident was raped and this door was fixed, two weeks later, the iteam found another door to her building broken again. Chris glorioso, today in new york. Recently, the iteam went back and checked and that door has been fixed again. As for the new smart doors at the baruch addition, although the funding was allocated four years ago, the state didnt release the cash until last year. The agency says the door will be operational in the coming weeks. Excellent report.

Shes been battling a lot of strife in her life. But i hadnt really heard much of her lately or seen her lately. It kind of sort of came out of me included. I was stunned, i was sad. The holidays unfortunately do bring a lot of deaths for some reason. My aunt had died on christmas day. Oh, my goodness. Im so sorry. My friends mother died the next day. So when i heard, my heart just sank. It was the third person in two days. I didnt know natalie. I would see her and she was always gracious and nice. She participated in our wbgo champion of jazz event in 2001. Id see her at blue note with her uncle freddie. So i was you know, and i know her sister. Theres a connection there.

Any business is good for this place. You cant just walk off the street . Not at all. This is one of the first medical marijuana dispensaries about to open in new york state. For advocates of medical cannabis, like dr. Steven dahmer, its a game changer. This is something thats alleviating pain and suffering. We want to offer that to the patients of new york. Were not going to be selling any joints here. Were not selling any pot brownies. The dispensaries are a far cry from the more colorful versions in places like colorado and california.

New yorks comparatively strict medical Marijuana Law limits distribution only to patients suffering from serious illness and who are screened by medical experts.

Again getting another push of weve seen throughout the late overnight into the morning. Theres still plenty to go. You can see the rain extending all the way down the jersey shore, even thunder and lightning offshore. Weve had reports of thunder and lightning around the tristate this morning.

News 4 investigating the outrage of a surcharge on bills at a local restaurant. We uncovered a restaurant was illegally adding a sur challenge charge to cover labor costs. Reporter 4 investigates showed you this restaurant bill. Its from hillstone on the east side. Many of you were not happy to charging customers a 2 surcharge mandate after the new year. The city told us it was illegal. If youre doing something illegal, im not in favor of it. I think if you need to make ends meet, then there has to be some legal way. Reporter after our report aired, the chain changed its policy. The surcharge is gone. The point of surcharge was to offset soaring labor costs, especially now that the minimum wage has gone up. Restaurateurs want to take care of their employees, but when costs skyrocket, they need to make up the cost. Reporter many restaurants would like to add a surcharge to your bill, and some are actually legal. The department of Consumer Affairs points to a 40yearold law known as 559. It explains a seller may impose per person minimum charge. The surcharge has to be connected to a special service. It cant be applied to standard services, like serving the meal, bussing the table. A blanket administrative surcharge is not considered an additional service. We would love to see the city take a new position, allow restaurants to add a clearly disclosed surcharge to a restaurant restaurant menu. Reporter at this point, the department of Consumer Affairs is not considering a change in the law. If you see a surcharge that seems illegal, contact their office.

So what are you starting im starting with a novel by elizabeth strout. This is her newest novel called my name is lucy barton. Its short, under 200 pages. It unfolds over the course of a few weeks while lucy barton is in the hospital, and her mother comes to visit her. Through the course of the conversations that happen between these two women over the course of this hospital stay, you range back into lucys childhood. Everything just unfolds. So heartbreaking because of the kind of loneliness that lucy has lived with because of the rift with what happened with her mom . Was a rift. Its the kind of woman, the kind of family that she grew up in. A kind of puritan lack of so the opening up of her mind, not only through these conversations, but when she coming to live in new york and becomes a writer. If i stopped and read as many sentences aloud to you now that i enjoyed reading and felt were so wise and so wonderful, we wouldnt get through the rest of the show. Wow. Thats a heck of an endorsement, bill. And this other, your heart is a muscle. Am i doing that right . Your heart is a muscle the size of a fist. This is a first novel by sunil yapa. Its set in 1999 during the World Trade Organization protests in seattle. He brings its a first novel, as i said. He brings together a cast of characters. The police chief, the Police Chiefs alienated son, whos been around the world for three years and is now back at the protest, other protesters, other policemen who are on the scene. Explodes. Remember that . The chapters in which the tear gas is set off and how that affects these people. Its just so well done. So beautifully orchestrated. You get inside the minds of these people. And theres a really wonderful story about the father and son. Very sad, obviously. The world is falling apart in a certain way. Yet, theres a certain kind of naivety because its taking place about two years before 9 11. So you have this horrible event happening, but even as youre reading it, youre aware of whats to come in the world. Right. I love when you bring firsttime novelists on board. And the thing about 1999, its historical fiction. When did that happen . Exactly my feeling. How do i feel about reading historical fiction about times i remember .

So its a really great story of how the president ial primary came to be and also about teddy roosevelt. Always a thrill to read about teddy roosevelt. This is a very bleak period. On the one hand, hes on the rampage for progressive causes, but the book reaches a climax at the Republican Convention in which he really betrays, particularly his black supporters. The black supports from the south and the north who believed in him. Its not a really happy picture, yet its still riveting. He comes to the conclusion, really, is there anything that a to be elected . And that of course reflects on oh, yeah. If you think about the current republican and democratic primaries, youll think maybe it was a little more interesting in 1912. Okay. House. He lived in the white house.
