Broome County Deputy Killed
Woody
w/Binghamton PD.
These bastards deserve a long agonizing death!!!!!
<Just wondering if the story on our (Broome County) Deputy that was murdered
made it up to you guys. 3 Assholes from Binghamton burglarized a
fireworks/gun shop just over the border in Pennsylvania of an AK47 and a
bunch of handguns then went to this little out of the way park to divide the
shit when Dep Kevin Tarsia, who lived on the little road happened to be
coming home to pick something up (about 4 a.m.) and saw these fucks in the
park and confronted them. One of them opened up with the AK then the other
took Kevin's gun and shot him in the head twice then they jumped in their
car and ran him over. He never had a chance to radio in or anything. He was
found about 1 1/2 to 2 hours later by a trooper. This was Thursday the 4th.
They arrested the fucks last evening. They ran their mouths and somebody
blew them in.
The funeral is Tuesday morning.>

I used to have a handle on life,

TOWN OF CHENANGO - Three men were arrested Saturday in connection with
Thursday's shooting death of Broome County sheriff's Deputy Kevin J. Tarsia.
Jeffrey A. Nabinger Jr. and David Sweat, both 22, were charged with
first-degree murder, a felony. Shawn J. Devaul, 23, was charged with
third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, a felony.
Nabinger and Sweat shot Tarsia 15 times around 4 a.m., Broome Sheriff David
E. Harder said. Devaul was "a non-active participant in the murder" as he
watched the shooting armed with a gun, Harder said.
Tarsia, 36, was shot, then run over by a car in Grange Hall Park in
Kirkwood, Harder said. The men stole several items from Tarsia's patrol car,
including the deputy's .40-caliber Glock handgun, police said.
Harder would not discuss details of the confrontation between Tarsia and his
assailants, nor would he say which weapons were used in the shooting. Harder
said it was still unclear whether Tarsia's gun had been fired.
Sweat lives on Foley Road in Kirkwood, while Devaul and Nabinger do not have
permanent addresses. The three men were arrested Saturday without struggle,
officials said.
Nabinger was apprehended as he walked down a street in Port Dickinson. Sweat
was stopped while driving in Kirkwood and Devaul was taken into custody in
the Village of Greene, Harder said.
Officials also said Saturday that Nabinger, Sweat and Devaul were
responsible for the burglary of Mess's Fireworks in Great Bend, Pa.
They likely will be charged in Pennsylvania once the paperwork stemming from
their arrests in New York gets sorted out, Pennsylvania State Police Cpl.
William Strong said.
The investigation took 60 hours, with some members of the sheriff's
department going more than 50 hours without sleep. More than 100 officers
from around 15 police agencies played a role in the investigation, officials
said.
"When the puzzle is completed, this is what you have ... arrests made in the
case," Harder said at a 7:30 p.m. news conference. "We're very sad for the
loss of our brother Kevin Tarsia."
Officials said solid police work and good communication was key in solving
the crime.
"There's nothing more serious than the murder of a police officer," state
police Troop C Maj. William Foley said. "This is another example of what we
can do when we join resources like this."
Police developed information that led them to Nabinger, Sweat and Devaul
from a source who learned about the shooting, Harder said. The sheriff
declined to elaborate on who contacted police or what information that
person provided.
Nabinger, Sweat and Devaul sat in silence as they were arraigned Saturday
night before Town of Kirkwood Justice Benjamin Weingartner.
All three asked for court-appointed attorneys. Sweat and Devaul both said
they are unemployed.
The three were sent to county jail without bail.
Police said Friday that they wanted to question a man in his late 20s who
was seen in Mess's several days before the burglary. However, authorities
haven't found him and said Saturday that they believe he didn't have
anything to do with the burglary or Tarsia's death.
According to Press & Sun-Bulletin reports, Nabinger and Sweat were charged
in a 1997 burglary after authorities said they entered a Town of Dickinson
home and took jewelry and cash.
Nabinger, then 17 and living in Binghamton, pleaded guilty in that case and
a second, in which he was accused of breaking several windows of a pickup
truck. He was sentenced to five years of intensive supervision probation.
Sweat also made news in 1996, when he and another 16-year-old were charged
with attempted second-degree burglary. The pair had elaborate plans to
burglarize a youth group home in Binghamton.
Sweat, then a Binghamton resident, and the other teen were both sentenced to
five years of intensive supervision probation. At their sentencing, Broome
County Judge Martin E. Smith called them "teen-aged idiots."
Shawn Devaul also made news as a teen-ager. According to Press &
Sun-Bulletin reports, he was a passenger during a 1997 car accident in which
a 14-year-old Chenango Forks girl was killed.
Devaul, then 18 and living in Binghamton, was hospitalized with head and
lung injuries after the accident.

TARSIA
The investigation into the slaying of Broome County sheriff's Deputy Kevin
J. Tarsia continues full bore a week after the 13-year veteran was found
gunned down in a Kirkwood park.
"There were many, many leads, leads that are still coming in, that are being
followed up," Undersheriff Gerald W. Kellar said Wednesday. Tarsia, 36, the
first Broome County deputy to be killed in the line of duty since the
department's founding in 1806, was buried Tuesday with full department
honors.
Meanwhile, Tarsia's mother, Martha, was released Wednesday from Wilson
Memorial Regional Medical Center in Johnson City. She spent the night in the
hospital after collapsing during the funeral.
A task force combining local, state and federal law-enforcement agencies
continued to work Wednesday from the Broome County Public Safety complex in
Dickinson even after three men were arrested Saturday. Two have been charged
with first-degree murder in Tarsia's death.
Investigators would not say if other arrests are expected. But they didn't
rule out the possibility.
"The investigation remains ongoing," said Lt. Dale Hamilton, the sheriff's
office chief of detectives who heads the investigation. The probe involves
sheriff's investigators, local police, New York and Pennsylvania state
police and agents from the FBI and Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms.
"There's a lot of loose ends to tie up. There's still a lot of leads out
there," Hamilton said. "Each one is being followed up. This is far from
being over."
Jeffrey A. Nabinger Jr. and David Sweat, both 22, and Shawn J. Devaul, 23,
remain in Broome County Jail without bail.
Nabinger and Sweat are charged with first-degree murder, a felony that could
carry the death penalty if there is a conviction. Devaul is charged with
third-degree criminal possession of a weapon, also a felony.
The three are being held away from the general jail population during a
classification process that all inmates go through, jailers said. The
process typically lasts five days. When it's complete, a decision will be
made about where they will be housed.
The three are housed in separate holding cells during the assessment period,
Jail Administrator Larry Fischer said.
They are being treated much as any other prisoners would be, Deputy Jail
Administrator Mark Smolinsky said.
Kellar and Hamilton remained tight-lipped on details of the investigation.
Kellar said several vehicles have been impounded. Those are in addition to
the stolen pickup truck the three are accused of using to smash open Mess's
Fireworks, a Great Bend, Pa., fireworks and gun shop. Guns were stolen from
the store.
Charges have yet to be filed in the Great Bend incident, a Pennsylvania
State Police dispatcher said.
Kellar said at least one of the impounded vehicles came from a remote area
in Kirkwood. The site is a place where stolen vehicles, weapons and a
recreational vehicle were stashed, said Virginia Y. Roberts, 23, of
Binghamton, Sweat's girlfriend and a friend of Nabinger.
Kellar and Hamilton wouldn't say if any of the seized vehicles is the one
that was used to run over Tarsia. Investigators said Tarsia was shot 15
times and run over by his assailants.
Kellar dismissed rumors that Tarsia had not been wearing a bulletproof vest,
and said he had not been handcuffed by his assailants.
Kellar said Tarsia's sidearm, a .40-caliber Glock handgun, was taken during
the incident. He would not say if the gun was used to shoot Tarsia, or if it
had been recovered.
"That's all part of the investigation," Kellar said.
Kellar said authorities are still looking for a man who had been seen at
Mess's Fireworks store before the burglary and who was pictured in a sketch
released last week.
"He still may be able to help us," Kellar said.
