📰 News we're reading

• No criminal charges for off-duty police sergeant in fatal Monticello crash (news12.com) — State investigators have decided not to charge an off-duty police sergeant in the November 2025 crash that killed a pedestrian on Pleasant Street in Monticello, but they sharply criticized how local authorities handled the case. For Monticello residents, the report flags unregistered and uninspected conditions of the sergeant's vehicle, delayed ticketing, lack of collision reconstruction, and the absence of body cameras on responding Monticello officers and Sullivan County deputies.
