A prosecutor in the Black Sunday fire trial Monday accused two Bronx tenants of causing the deaths of two firefighters by chopping up their apartments to make a few extra bucks.
Summing up the case, the prosecutor branded the tenants as greedy and negligent for turning their flats into a warren of rented rooms that trapped the doomed FDNY heroes.
"Caridad Coste and Rafael Castillo were motivated by money and greed," Assistant District Attorney Jeffrey Glucksman said. "The firefighters were motivated by devotion to duty."
Coste's lawyer said the firefighters should have left when they started running out of air and would never have been in danger if broken fire hydrants had been working.
"The City of New York and the Fire Department should be sitting here," Knipping said, "not these poor defendants who have nothing to do with the fire."

Thousand Points of Right
Another question, which begs to be answered, is why Bloomy insists on a policy of “Don’t Ask-Don’t Tell”, when it comes to Illegal Aliens residing and working in New York City ? This policy may entice thoughtless NYC residents to “chop-up” their apartments, so their Illegal relatives and friends can reside in those so aptly named… “Warren of Rented Rooms.” Is it possible that Bloomy’s policy is all about "Money and Greed", with an unwitting consequence of sacrificing Firefighters’ safety and lives?
Additionally, more than a million Illegal Aliens wreak havoc on the City and State’s Health Care costs. Let’s eradicate that cost to the City before we dare ask our Hero Firefighters and Police to pay a red cent for Health Coverage or question the dangers of their job. Period. jg
