2-month-old found dead in Newport


"A 17-year-old was taken into custody for felony delinquent charges"

At one point our resident slumlord was promoting this part of Newport (he clearly had some kind of financial interest there at the time). But this is NOT a good area, but ANY stretch of the imagination.

Wow, using a child's death to troll a poster. That's got to be a new low. The neighborhood didn't cause this child's death, massnative. An individual did.

I didn't say the neighborhood caused the child's death. I said it is a bad neighborhood. Stay focused, sandsonik.

From GoLocalProv:



"Late Friday morning, NPD released the following:

While Newport Fire Department personnel were in their rescue performing life saving measures on the 2-month-old child, a large unruly crowd began to form where a physical altercation broke out.

While NPD officers attempted to break up the altercation, one officer was punched in the face. Due to the large unruly crowd, no immediate arrests were made at the scene. Newport Police Detectives are investigating this incident.

The Rhode Island State Medical Examiners Office will be performing an autopsy on the infant.

This incident still remains under investigation."

^ There's a reason why the Google Street View cars won't go in there.



And, yes, this area was pumped up as desirable by one of our members.

The Crime Fetish Twins can barely disguise how such a tragedy excites them. And they get to trash a neighborhood at the same time. It's called a 2fer for them.

It's really sad that these constant postings from one or two perpetrators have been allowed. No other forum allows this
or has such horrible trolls.

The apartments aren’t that bad along with the area. Not optimum but we never felt at risk visiting a friend living there.
