The hunt for the suspected motorist who struck and killed Roman Catholic nun Sister Jacqueline Walsh on a quiet street in Water Mill on July 9 remains in high gear this week as Southampton Town Police are continuing to appeal to the 30-year-old man who is accused of killing the nun, and then hiding from police, to turn himself in.
As of Wednesday morning, however, the suspect—a Latino worker whose name police are withholding for investigative reasons—remained elusive. He is said to be constantly on the move, in what are so far successful attempts to evade the handful of law enforcement agencies that are working together around the clock to bring him to justice.
“We will follow the trail on this guy until the end of time,” Southampton Town Police Chief William... more

>> "We have our reasons, and I’m not asking anybody to understand them, but we have reasons for why we’re not divulging that information yet."
Just a WAG (wild-a** guess): the Police have someone's license but they don't know if the license belongs to the driver sought for questioning.
As an aside, the ironies in this unhappy story are immense, starting with the fact that the #1 supporters of the (perhaps) undocumented Americans on the East End ...more have been the Sisters of the Cloth.

>> "NYPD would have grabbed this guy up days ago."
That's as silly a supposition as I've read here all year! NYPD is still trying to track down suspected perpetrators of multiple homicides who've been ducking them for weeks if not months without having left the five boroughs.
I suspect the answer from you is that we shouldn't check.
That's a great system for someone who doesn't think illegal immigration is a problem.
I have been in two car accidents with illegals both having South Carolina plates. I was told by an officer that if the trunk has a local car dealer sticker on the trunk, ...more and a South Carolina plate the driver is probally an illegal. He also said Texas, and Pennsylvannia are also favorite states of illegal drivers because of their lax motor vehicle laws.
As far as catching the driver this is a pure cover up. This guys face and name should be plastered all over the media. I'm sure the driver is well out of the area it is so important to have a reward and as many eyes looking for this low life. There is no reasonable reason to not put his picture up. Have these cops ever seen the Americas most wanted list? How would they catch any felon without a name and picture. I guess when your brother in law is a US senator you get special treatment. They don't want this driver telling his story.
Do that to a few hundred employers of illegal aliens and the illigal immigrant problem will solve itself.
>> "who I understand he called from either the accident site or the site where he left the car"
Really? Do you have special information, and if so, how did you obtain it? I don't see it in the news report.
Seems reminiscent of low tide...
is a sad situation!
I noticed the SHP did this before when running story of Centro Corazon etc.
Just not done that way colloquially, anyway. Not in this country.
Nothing like the drumhead from days of yore...
opinion, is not at issue in this tragic situation. The human issue on all sides of
the issue where the immigrant issue is concerned should be solved by the
Rule of Law.
1: Who is Mr. Zarro and what are his local political conections?
2: Why have the police not released the name and photo of the alleged driver, especially if they can't find him on their own, ever hear of America's Most Wanted? The public is a valuable tool in finding criminals!
3: Will there be an investigation into Mr. ...more Zarro's employing this guy? Eg. immigration status, and SS witholdings?
This being said, condolances to the good Sister's family and friends.

Also of interest is the boss being a debt collection executive. Maybe they are not releasing the name because they don't want him taking an alias, and his company is doing skip trace work on him.

Fraud by illegal immigrants destroying children’s lives:
Jennifer Andrushko’s 3-year-old son is one of those victims. His identity was taken by an illegal immigrant, who then used it to fraudulently obtain work and run up unpaid medical bills.
“I cannot express how ridiculous it is that my son’s ...more Social Security number has been used for care at an OB/GYN’s office...
According to the article, the police have the suspect's name and photo.
WHY WHY WHY, almost a week after the fact, will they not release this information?
Editor and Ms. Reynolds, please GRILL Chief Wilson on his very specific "investigative reasons" for withholding the name and photo. Let's see if he has a LOGICAL AND COGENT set of reasons. Please MAKE him refuse to go into any further detail, and make him say why this continues to be justified.
Mind-boggling!
Interesting in a NY Post article how the driver was dismissed as just a migrant "landscaper" who had no permission to ...more drive any of the family vehicles. The cops should get a search warrant to look for all of his belongings to prove that he lived in the mansion, but no doubt everything has been removed. Nice cover up.
Mr. Zaro probably helped hide the guy and is more concerned about watering his lawn then catching someone who killed a nun.
I have a few unkind words to describe Mr. Zaro but I do not want my comment removed.
Perhaps the print edition of the Press will have more in the morning (already at 7/11 tonight).
The MURDERER is obviously an illegal,zaro is friends with that spineless jellyfish epley,who calls the shots at the police station,although he is just a puppet for the church,which protects illegals at any cost...even vehicular manslaughter against one of their own
Any questions?
I do not believe Zaro had anything to do with this horrible crime other than trusting the wrong "employee" with his car. As far as Zaro hiring illegals, do you really think this enormously wealthy man can be ...more bothered with mundane task of hiring the lowly help? Is this is a second home? Or one of many homes? Then he has someone overseeing his properties - that person should definitely be called out for his/her shoddy/slack hiring procedures! And Zaro and all the other wealthy homeowners out here better take a closer look at who is on their payroll - officially AND unofficially!
This nightmare may finally blow the cover off this underground hiring baloney around here. And spare me the "oh they do work no one else wants to do" - I know plenty of locals who will do whatever it takes to keep food on their tables and a roof over their families' heads in this horrible economy. AND they are willing to pay the required taxes to do so.
This guy Zara is the brother in law of Senator Frank Lautenburg. Could this be the reason of such a lack of information?
This guy Zaro is so arrogant when he built his house he illegally paved town trustee land next to his home. Reason being is he has limited access to ...more his garage and now has an electric gate going right onto the trustee land. The fresh asphalt leaks oils from the pavement right into Mecox Bay! Why doesn't the press write a story about this and how he bullied the Trustees? Or how about the fact he has a house on the bayfront with no natural plantings and a pool against the bay. Just curious.
Except the church knows no boundries,and epley is the nuns puppet
He called his employer on his cellphone after the accident and told him about it. The police checked the cellphone tower and sure enough, it was right where the car was abandoned
The accident was on July 9th.
Everyone can do the math.
If Chief Wilson does not release the suspect's photo and name before the weekend, or provide a full explanation of what the "heck" is going on, it would be surprising. If the suspect has already escaped from the country, it surely will be interesting to hear the "investigative reasons" for permitting his escape, due to a conscious decision NOT to ask the public for help.
Further words ...more of outrage are stifled for now.
Either that, or the SHTPD is looking for an officer who is not high on drugs to make the arrest. Might take a while to find that officer.
..
an earlier post, maybe lazymedic, suggested that it may not be an illegal at all but zorro hisself!! oooo spooky stuff and highly intriguing!!
...
but again, alas, we wont get any scoop from twentyseveneast on this .. nope, no one here gonna 2bl check his alibi or anything else .. just leeeeeean back & prop my flip flops up in the hamptons and find a different ...more way to generate some clicks for my private blog and maybe block a few annoying posts!
