He’s probably one of Mayor Bronin’s Second chance (x5) job placements.

City Council wants more minority recruits for HPD, why not give him a spot in the class?

He was probably recruited at the new Criminal Welcome Center located at City Hall.The recruiter probably has a similar record.

Alot of these charges were presented over 11 years ago. Are we really judging someones worth ethics based off mistakes that occurred at 17 years old. Clearly he was doing something right for the YMCA if he was able to bump up to a Directors position despite being a felon. Majority of people in this world do not even reach with position WITHOUT a felony.

The charges also have NOTHING to do with "children" so the comment about "putting him in close proximity of children" is irrelevant. In fact, he was one of the primary people fighting to create activities to help children prosper.

America. So quick to talk about the next without knowing the full story. So quick to put everyone business on Blast and then when people are unable to secure a job because of things like this what does that do? Increase crime rate again.
I cant with you people LOL

The YMCA hired someone to be successful Director. Which is what he was

I think you need to look at the Judicial documents again, many of the serious charges were from December of 2017

I have read the charges from 2017. Those all just sum up to say that he fled from the police, resulting in a car accident while having someone else in the car. Just because they broke them up into numerous amount of charges, doesn't mean that the fact that it was basically a flee/refusal of arrest doesn't stand. (& technically those are all misdemeanors )

The gun threat charges are solely based on the response of 1 individual. From, what I have gathered initiated the argument and has threatened him with a gun. Not another witness not any footage from the Car Wash. So who's to say that they happened?

But, this blog is targeting whether he was a good fit at YMCA. Not all of the extra stuff. In addition, most of his role had nothing to even do with children at all. He was the director of the Wellness Center which is located upstairs in the facility where you have to be a minimum of 16years old in order to be at. The only areas where " children" were located was downstairs, which is separate from the Wellness Center and is under direction of another individual. As a director at the YMCA his role was to ensure that everyone worked out safety, ensure that the the center remained in budget, create fitness programs, etc. Which is what he did.

lets not forget that he did actually pull over for the police. Police that had their guns out. I think it's safe to say based on how many ppl..especially African Americans that have been killed my police officers that anyone who would seen that would have had thoughts of fleeing in their minds.
Its natural reaction when presented with a threat to save your life by all means necessary.

But these aren't the stories we post.

Did that fear also force him to commit the robbery he was charged with, and was he just planning ahead to eventually protect himself by carrying a pistol without a permit and the criminal possession of a firearm?

I personally knew andreas and is a member of the ymca and i must say this article paints a picture of very different picture of andreas while he did have a past, he was definitely recreating his image to be a model citizen very shocking to say the least i believe he's a good man that made bad decisions that day.
