Members of the New York City Police Department’s Critical Response anti-terrorism unit have been deployed to monitor Verizon workers on picket lines in several New York locations.  Striking workers wonder how much New Yorkers are paying in tax dollars to provide de-facto security for Verizon.  “The company made $19-billion in profit, they can’t afford to bring out their own security to watch their own men,” asked Jon Granziel, a veteran of 21-years with Verizon.  WPIX in New York has the story.  (3 minutes)

The FBI is also looking into the sabotage of Verizon equipment. Possibly by striking workers. Last week a school and police station lost communications when someone turned off equipment.
