"According to a tenant who has lived there for 18 years and asked not to be named for fear of retribution, security has long been an issue.
“[The former owners] were not doing their job correctly,” said the tenant, adding that public safety measures have been lax since Newport police officer Anthony Piermont was stabbed in 2010 while trying to detain a 16-year-old resident."
Are we at the point where anytime something negative is said about an area in Rhode Island, a Florida resident is going to chime in with a story about having friends there and tell us it's not a bad area?
