On March 14, 2025, eight police officers arrived at Malba resident Kristy Kiely’s home on a false report that it was an “operational drug den” filed by her former partner and co-parent, Richard Weisenburger. The incident led to a months-long custody battle between the two over their 14-year-old daughter, which Kiely is still fighting in the legal system today.
Kiely and a representative allege that the response to the false report was in stark contrast to the 109th Precinct’s reaction to the violent Malba street racing incident that occurred on Nov. 23, in which police failed to arrive on the scene for around 40 minutes, all because the father’s brother, Officer Edward Weisenburger, is a member of the force himself.
