Landlord Joseph Handy’s 328 Pleasant Avenue hosted a Herkimer gang gathering this week. Handy bought the property in June of 2018 from Harriett Tangorra. 328 Pleasant is notorious for Tangorra’s long time tenant, drug and child trafficker Curtis Cool.
The gang’s probably angry about our recent video of Pleasant Avenue street crime by some of their Herkimer drug couriers, notably 332 Pleasant Avenue’s Kyle Stone. (332 Pleasant Avenue belongs to Herkimer landlord Jay Smith. Still.)
It was a fresh attempt by the Stanley Sykes’ gang to dominate mid-Pleasant Avenue, this time from the porch of 328 Pleasant. It seems Handy is content to continue the long Herkimer practice of renting to cash-heavy gangs, of which Jay Smith is the prominent practitioner.
Most of the porch people seem to be from the Sykes gang’s Utica location, parked for the day at Jay Smith’s 341 Eureka Avenue, long a regional child trafficking hub. (Off-camera, 100 yards to the left.) In the video, they appear torn between giving hard looks at our security camera across the zero lot line and trying to stay off-camera. 
Next day saw Sykes Gang wannabe Xavier Rowe on 328 Pleasant Avenue’s porch, blasting music and harassing us in our driveway. Rowe’s a noted Herkimer street thug and minor drug dealer, convicted last year of menacing and endangering a child:
