Crime and quality-of-life complaints have gotten so bad in the West Village, a community group has hired private security guards — and it’s still not enough.
Private guards was the only logical way to combat the chaos of a revolving-door justice system, he said.
Maloney said in the first two weeks, the armed guards confronted 200 users, dealers and vagrants and rousted them off the block. But once a shift ended, the shady characters came back. “The first night we were there, a guy walked straight toward us, pulled down his pants and showed his penis,” she said. “There were people peeing on the stoop next door. We’re walking around and stepping over piles of s–t. There’s open drug use and dealing. And then there’s just the constant screaming and threats all night long. Everything was so blatant.”
