| CRIST |
The top aide for Republicans on
the county Legislature was arrested over the weekend for a physical
confrontation he had with his 17-year-old son.
Rich Crist is charged with two
counts of misdemeanor endangering the welfare of a child and one count of
harassment, a violation.
According to sources, there has
been a months-long disciplinary issue with the 17-year-old that included
involvement by law enforcement. The issue culminated in the early morning hours
Friday in the parking lot of the Castleton Elementary School and included use
of a family vehicle and efforts to get it back. It’s unclear who called Schodack Police to the scene, but
in the end Crist was arrested on the abovementioned charges.
Crist, who is the county’s de facto
Republican Party chairman, was released on his own recognizance.
He will be arraigned at a later date since town police could not find a judge
to perform the arraignment. When contacted, he declined comment.
Crist makes 95,000-plus in his
role as legislative liaison, a position he has held for some two decades. He is
also the Republicans’ most prolific operative in the rough and tumble world of Rensselaer County politics. He has come under fire in the
past for allegedly doing political work out of the county office building using county
staffers. He has also worked as a consultant on a number of local judicial and
other races as well as statewide and congressional campaigns and serves as the Schodack Republican chairman.
If I get more information, I will
pass it along.
It's about time. He's been beating that kid for years.
ReplyDeleteI do not know the man and I am not a political person. But this does sound like a guy that has a problem child that needs to be straightened out. He probably did what you could do in 1965, kick the brat in the ass and make him mind his dad. But today he will probably be dragged thru the courts and be lectured on abusing an ungrateful little brat punk.
ReplyDeleteMaybe Crist's kid is a problem child because his father is a lying scumbag.
DeleteNo, you are wrong. This is classic child abuse. Don't make excuses for this big footed monster.
DeleteI'll love that kid if he won't.
DeleteSigned,

Pay rosney tiger pat
DeleteKarma... Better get a good lawyer. Seeing its an election year.
ReplyDeleteHey Rich, I hear Joel Abelove is looking for work.
DeleteI think the key word was a GOOD LAWYER!!! I'm surprised Mr. Abelove is still employed with NYS being a republican. And completely against Cuomo on the SAFE ACT. Funny isn't it????
DeleteRich Crist has been gleefully trashing other people's reputations for years, on the taxpayer dime no less, so it's no surprise that most of Rensselaer County is enjoying this story.
ReplyDeleteCouldn't happen to a nicer guy.
you bet we are
Delete"They couldn't find a judge to perform the arraignment."
ReplyDeleteWell no kidding. That's because they all paid Crist to get elected in the first place.
Kid would sign the working family petition so he got a whooping
ReplyDeleteBill dunne jerking the gherkin over the news
ReplyDeleteNo he's excited he shot down the ruck patio.
DeleteHe didn't do anything others haven't. What a joke Bernhardt peters is. He will lose his post you watch

Rich had too much to drink and mistook his son for Bobby Cox
ReplyDeleteTouche
DeleteDid you get a gasoline bath too?
DeleteVito singing light my fire last weekend on Douw street
DeleteCan't wait for the cooperation agreement.
ReplyDeletePerhaps his prison garb will be the right size
ReplyDeleteRich crist and chief peter are friends and fellow republican/conservatives. You can see by peters comments that he was minimizing the events that led up to Crists arrest.chief peter needs to remove himself and his department from this investigation. Otherwise this will lead to the same old solution that has protected crist in the past. While we are at it, why is a person that plead guilty to crimes even able to hold the position of police chief? Answer: because rich crist says he can.
ReplyDeleteRich arrested by a fellow Republican. That's even funnier.
DeleteYeah and the Dems with their voter fraud are squeaky clean! They're ALL CROOKS!
DeleteAnd dunne and Lou. Crooks
DeleteHe did it for the kids!
ReplyDeleteThus the reason bobby cox ran away behind gendrons last year.
ReplyDeletecox ran because crist had bad breath and that comb over mop hair doo
Deletehim and Richard Nixon had the same hair too during the Watergate era
scary big headed freak
Domestic violence must be treated seriously. Stop the cycle of violence and remove this child from the pattern of abuse.
ReplyDeletecrist thinks he's above the law. sooner or later he pay the price lets hope its sooner
ReplyDeleteHarry should have taught him how to use code to keep the kid in line yeah and get his power turned off with national grid then take his property back in this case his car
Deleteplease legislators, make him go away
ReplyDeleteThat's on the GOP majority. And they're afraid to. Bunch of pansies with their own closets full of skeletons.
DeleteRich plans to appear in court by absentee ballot.
ReplyDeleteNext Saturday: Rodney Wiltshire hosts a shirtless Twerkathon at Kokopellis for the Crist Legal Defense Fund. Guest DJ 3-J Mirch
ReplyDeleteThats funny
DeleteWill the two tone tongue make an appearence?
DeleteKen Z is the official judge of the Twerkathon, he's promised to limit his speech to four hours or less. Chief Tedesco is running security. Kevin McCashion will be outside tweeting live with Vito and the hookers. Harry will write a big check from the water and sewer fund. Kathy Jimino will stride in and deem it all an unfunded mandate. Mark McGrath will enforce the jorts-preferred dress code and the evening's finale will be Rich's serenade to the ladies of "Every Breath You Take".
DeleteDoesn't appear there is much love for Richard.. Maybe this will wake him up a bit and send him packing. Bye bye Richie
ReplyDeleteYou got that right. Even the republicans hate him
DeleteIf the Republicans fear Crist then why do they continue to allow him to wield the power of a dictator. The legislators who pay his exorbitant salary are afraid to speak up to him. As an example, the only reason Reid became chairman is because he would never disagree with Crist. Sad scenario.
DeleteWho cares? I'd rather see a scumbag like Crist running the GOP than someone credible. His behavior will eventually trip him up for good, it will be great to watch.
Deletecall your legislator tell them this is not the person who should be a spokesman this rule by intimidation must end. martin reid this is your employee a fine example he is
ReplyDeleteFunny reading all these post mostly from people who never changed a diaper in there life's.
ReplyDeleteBill dunne Gary pavlic peter grim
DeleteJim Gordon knows all about diapers. Maybe he can give Rich some parenting tips.
DeleteFunny, I've raised kids through teenage years and managed not to assault them in public. But then again I'm not a lowlife thug with anger issues and a history of stalking people.
Deletebulshit I had to change Jim Gordon s Diaper when he called the cops on me
Deletehe was so afraid he had to run to troy pd and do the little boy who cried wolf but all the sargent s and captains said now Jim you will have to get in line Vito and Vandenburgh were here first its a first come first serve situation
one thing I will say is that at least Rich is not a coward
How are those famous cox gap line baths boy? Vito been dishing them out
Deletelets be fair we all no how a 17 year old can be now a days. Everyone of us who have children no that it is not easy. Put 17 years old along side drugs attitude and hormones and what do you have?
ReplyDeleteBill dunne? I mean the date auditors and the bag of chips? Tonya. Ect
Deleteguess you dont know the achoolyard bully that is rich crist
Deletefranco how do you make a hormone
Deletedon't pay her
drum role please
rich is that you ? you misogynist bustard
Deleterich is that you? you misogynist bustard
DeleteAnyone know of any cops who can't control their SUVs having any garage sales? Maybe coop wil have one too
ReplyDeleteMartin Reid like Pete sam press with down
ReplyDeleteA future Republican candidate?
ReplyDeleteLet's hope bill dunnes canadien planners don't send him any ice cream. He cries to the principle
ReplyDeleteCanadians are known for their ice cream. Don't get in the way of bills ice cream. And don't pass the bag of chips around the Greek
DeleteThe next politician to go will hopefully be Mahar
ReplyDeleteDid did Vandenburg even mention this on his show? I may have missed it. If Crist was a Democrat he would still be harping on it.
ReplyDeleteDon't worry Rich. Lou Desso is the new Deputy Mental Health Director, college degree waived! Set up a date and I'm sure he can fix all your temper problems. Not sure he can make you an example your family can look up to. A life change needed there I'm afraid.

ReplyDeleteThey can meet down at Applebee's. a stiff ddrink and an unsuspecting woman will fix them right up
ReplyDeleteCome on Vandenburg, ask the questions. Pretend he's a dem if that makes it easier for you
ReplyDeleteThe pressure is off. Now we can post about Galuski and forget Crist ever beat his kid.
ReplyDeleteDon't count on it
Deletecongress gibson please send crist packing he is a detriment to your campaign
ReplyDeleteyeah Vito is the only events coordinator in the history of troy who can never be alone with out police protection
ReplyDeleteand yes tax payers your paid for it thanks people of Troy he is your man
and this new administration done even realize that if the got rid of Vito the people would actually be knocking each other over to vote Democrat I keep telling my wife ( its got to be the water its just madness )
the old timers know about him riding around with mirch remember this some people got long memory's in Troy
Leave tspin to the adults and those who actually know whats going on. Not coming to troy a virgin and having to talk to lots of people and getting information.
DeleteThanks Jim its not over yet pal
