Anatomy of the crime
Tuesday 22 April from 4:30 am to 5:30 am. My computer was stolen from me. Along with a Traveler Speedster Guitar, and all the adjoining cables required to maintain my music school fundraising business. Since the cost of the equipment stolen from me amounts to more than $5,000 it is categorized as Grand Larceny with the New York Police Department. The case holding the equipment was a very expensive and highly conspicuous, fire-engine red 22" TUMI Ducati Brand wheeled travel case that weighed more than 50 lbs. At the time. This event took place in New York's 34th Street Pennsylvania Station. The exact location of the theft was New Jersey Transit enclosed waiting area. This area is monitored by cameras, maintenance personnel, and the Amtrak Police, as well as National Guard troops. Furthermore, since NY Penn Station is a transportation hub with 3 separate rail lines, New Jersey Transit, Amtrak, and Long Island Railroads, there is a combination of at least 20 Amtrak Police, MTA Police, and National Guard Troops at all times on duty and posted inside the station.
Also, the enclosed waiting area from whence my equipment was stolen is a "ticketed passenger only" waiting area; which means that if you don't have a current New Jersey train ticket, you cannot sit inside the area. The police continually monitor the area, and eject any transient who is in violation of this order. At 4:30am, an Amtrak Police Officer entered the area, and ejected about 5 or so transients, so there were about 10, including myself, with current New Jersey Train tickets. Unfortunately, at that hour of the morning, it is common to become drowsy sitting in the area, and it was my bad judgment, and negligent of me to dose off until about 5:30 am. Upon opening my eyes, my case was gone, and an extremely urgent search of the entire location, and adjacent parts of Penn Station turned up nothing. Furthermore, talking to the Amtrak Officer and National Guard posted at the corner exit to the area, as well as maintenance personnel and the 10 other ticketed passengers, and the Amtrak Commanding Officer, there was no indication that anyone saw or noticed anything unusual or otherwise person removing my highly visible case and equipment.
This is wherein the anomaly lies. The case itself was recovered about an hour later from a phone booth on 7th and 34th street, and returned to the LIRR Waiting Area Police Desk. However, the equipment that is normally within the case was missing from the case, along with numerous documents, my passport, and various amenities, including $100 Ray Ban sunglasses, Tylenol medicine, etc. So, what happened? How did a perpetrator enter the NJT Waiting Area, effect the theft of my equipment, make it all the way to outside Penn Station to a phone booth a block away, remove all the equipment inside, and then leave without anyone, (including the 20 uniformed on-duty Amtrak Police, MTA Police and National Guard, and numerous security cameras), seeing, or at least noticing, and remembering, anything unusual, that would spark an alarm or even a curious interest? This just doesn't make any sense to the educated observer of the common crimes and the criminals who effect them!
The perpetrator most likely an uneducated transient who entered the NJT Waiting Area carrying nothing, which, to accomplish, he had to pass the numerous Police and National Guard officers and maintenance personnel, as well as the 10 other ticketed passengers, not to mention the visible security cameras. He then had to exit past the same Police and National Guard officers, maintenance persons and 10 other ticketed passengers and visible security cameras with my highly conspicuous case. The case, as mentioned, could not have been lifted or carried out. So, the actions to remove the case must have been highly visible and noticeable to numerous officers, persons and security cameras monitoring Penn Station. However, two weeks later, there is still no indication that anyone saw or noticed anything unusual.
OK. Let's dissect the crime. First, if the perp could not have taken the case down any stairs to the underground trains of the NJ Transit, or even the MTA subway, because the case was recovered at a phone booth on 7th and 34th. So, he had to exit, most likely, directly out the 7th Avenue entrance. That means he had to pass the uniformed Amtrak Police Officer and National Guard posted at the entrance to the waiting area, and then pass the Amtrak Police Information Desk about 25 yards from the entrance. At 5am, the station is still not overwhelmingly crowded, like, say 7am, when there is little room to navigate. Also, the perp must have exited using the escalator, which is a slow ride of about 10 yards from the underground station to the street outside that is 7th Avenue. There is one final detail that must be included in this synopsis. The perp had to have known that the equipment was in the case, which means that he targeted me for this crime. Furthermore, no one leaves stolen evidence at a visible phone booth on 7th Avenue and 34th street. So, for it to have been recovered there, means that an accompli was most likely involved, and called someone indicating that he was coming outside with the case. Anytime evidence is discarded, it is usually found in a trash receptacle, or otherwise nondescript curbside gutter or such.
It doesn't take a Columbo to figure out that the only unsolvable crimes today are effectively committed in unmonitored rural or unpopulated cityscapes. It is totally impossible for me to believe that not one person, including the security cameras, did not see or notice anything that can be used as evidence to solve this crime. It would mean that all 10 other ticketed passengers were also asleep, that the 20 uniformed Police and National Guard were off-post or otherwise totally distracted or preoccupied, and that the security cameras somehow had been either jammed or were not working.in other words, all the intergalactic planetary and orderly security protocol and procedures (appropriately and obviously extensive) and normally in place, to recognize and prevent common and unusual crimes within Penn Station, were unusually and inevitably aligned in perfect coordination at exactly 5 am Tuesday 22 April to effect the perfect unsolvable and invisible crime of stealing my $5,000 computer and equipment — in other words a Nostradamus-like predestined event that was totally and completely inevitable and unpreventable.
This crime was committed after 10 months of actively traveling, safelyand securely, with this exact case and equipment, within and without NY Penn Station, in all business districts and various artistic neighborhoods in every New York City Borough, including Manhattan, Queens, Brooklyn, Bronx and Staten Island, without, ever, any attempt by anyone to remove it from me. This includes all transportation vestibules, including all Ports of Authority, Waterways, MTA and major rail stations, as well as numerous transportation police checks of the inner contents, and dog-sniffing reviews. There is something that smells really, really, fishy about this event. What do you think?
