NEW CITY, NY – Rockland County Executive Ed Day wrote to Chairwoman Tina Stanford of the New York State Board of Parole to request that the Board deny parole to child killer Robert McCain.
“Let us not forget that this man, Robert McCain, was the initial assailant of Paula Bohovesky, caving her head in with a piece of concrete before sexually assaulting her and leaving her to die. This monster does not deserve to walk free on our streets while our community still suffers from the loss and pain he caused. He committed murder, a crime of permanency, and should be permanently in jail,” wrote County Executive Day in the letter.

Facebook Marketplace Scam Red Flags
Scammers prey on your emotions to make you think you’ll be missing out on a great sale or amazing deal if you don’t follow through on their rules. This emotional response is the basis of social engineering attacks, and they rely on you acting quickly rather than taking time to investigate. If you encounter any of these while buying or selling, it’s best to abandon the transaction:
-Low prices for what should be high-ticket items
-Refusing to meet up in person for exchanges
-Moving conversations outside of Facebook Messenger
-Asking for payment in the form of a gift card
-Requesting deposits on items before receiving them
-Asking for items to be shipped before payment is received
-Buyers providing a prepaid shipping label
-Buyers overpaying then asking for a refund of the difference
-Transactors without a profile picture
-Requests for your personal phone number or other information
