Sunset Park leaders give cops coins in show of support
When Sunset Park business and civic leaders wanted to show support for the cops in their local precinct, the 72nd, in the wake of the assassinations of detectives Wenjian Liu and Rafael Ramos, they put their money where their mouths were…literally.
Tony Giordano, founder of the group Sunset Park Restoration, and his wife Renee Giordano, executive director of the Sunset Park Business Improvement District, pooled the resources of their two organizations to commission a commemorative coin to present to each and every cop at the 72nd Precinct.
