Defendant Christopher Reece Pleaded Guilty to Felony Drug and  Weapon Charges in August  

Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced on Nov. 29 the sentence of Christopher Reece to 10 years in prison following his August conviction  for possession of narcotics and a loaded, operable illegal weapon.  

Christopher Reece

“This conviction represents the fourth time that this defendant has been found to have either been  selling dangerous drugs and/or possessing illegal weapons,” said DA Tierney. “Enough is enough.  He needs to be held responsible for his actions and serve a significant sentence.”  

Reece, 45, pleaded guilty in August to one count of Criminal Possession of a Controlled  Substance in the Second Degree, a class A felony, and one count of Criminal Possession of a  Weapon in the Second Degree, a class C violent felony.  

The defendant was arrested on October 21, 2021, after members of the Suffolk County Police  Department executed a search warrant at his residence on Middleton Road in Bohemia. During  the search, detectives recovered 978 grams of cocaine, a loaded .9mm semiautomatic pistol, and  two additional magazines. 

Members of law enforcement estimate that the sale of the cocaine would have yielded Reece about  $90,000 in profit. Also recovered during the execution of the search warrant were several digital  scales used for weighing and distributing cocaine, multiple cellular phones, and $7,000 in cash. A  review of the cellular telephones recovered at the residence showed communications to and from  the defendant, his customers, and others, discussing narcotic transactions.  

Reece had been previously convicted in 2014, 2004 and 1998 of Attempted Criminal Possession  of a Controlled Substance in the Third Degree; Attempted Criminal Sale of a Controlled Substance  in the Third Degree and Criminal Possession of a Loaded Firearm in the Third Degree respectively.  

The defendant pleaded guilty on August 25, before Supreme Court Justice, the Honorable  Timothy P. Mazzei. At the time of his plea, Reece admitted to possessing 978 grams of cocaine  and a loaded, operable pistol. On Nov. 29  the defendant was sentenced by Justice Mazzei to 10 years’  incarceration followed by 5 years’ post-release supervision.  

Criminal complaints and indictments are merely accusatory instruments.  

Defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. No one is above the law.

Bradley Garyn

Suffolk County District Attorney Raymond A. Tierney announced on Nov. 21 the sentencing of Bradley Garyn to an indeterminate prison term of 5 to 15 years in prison after a 2020 four-month long investigation into child pornography and coercion crimes following a juvenile female’s report to law enforcement that the defendant coerced her into providing him with explicit photographs and videos via the social media platform Snapchat. 

The investigation revealed that Garyn established contact with multiple juvenile females on Snapchat under multiple usernames including “ipay4feetpics,” “paying4feetpics” and “PayU4Selfies.” The defendant offered $10 payment in exchange for “selfies” or photographs of the girls’ feet.

After establishing communication with the victims, Garyn solicited increasingly explicit photographs and videos in exchange for higher amounts of money, up to $500. In one instance, Garyn coerced a victim into sending him sexually explicit photographs and video by threatening to disseminate intimate images of her. Garyn was arrested in December 2020 and search warrants were executed by law enforcement to seize and search various computer equipment and cellular telephones in his possession. Garyn, 29, pleaded guilty on Sept. 19.

Man arrested for making fake 911 calls

On Nov. 21, Suffolk County Police arrested a Coram man who allegedly made multiple false 911 calls over a two-year span. Andrew Welcom made a 911 call on  Aug. 18, reporting a woman had been assaulted and any law enforcement officer that attempted to enter a Lake Ronkonkoma home to help her would be shot. Police responded to the location and found no one in the home was in danger and there were no problems at the house.

As a result of the incident, the Fourth Precinct Crime Section investigated similar incidents and located four additional 911 calls dating back to November 2020 that could be traced to Welcom. The calls all reported a suspicious person or crime and all were determined to be unfounded. During at least one of the phone calls, Welcom identified himself as a New York City Police officer. Following an investigation, Welcom, 34, was arrested and charged with five counts of Falsely Reporting an Incident and two counts of Criminal Impersonation.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Fourth Precinct Crime Section officers at 631-854-8426.
