SEPTIC PIPE SABOTAGE: A Town of Newburgh jury has convicted 74-year-old Nicholas Gemma of criminal mischief after prosecutors say he repeatedly cut his neighbor’s septic pipe during an ongoing dispute.

According to the Orange County District Attorney’s Office, surveillance video captured Gemma entering the victim’s property and cutting the pipe with a saw in December 2025. Prosecutors say the damage left the homeowner unable to use his toilet, sink or shower and marked at least the third time Gemma had cut the pipe.

The DA’s office says Gemma claimed the pipe created an odor, but investigators found no violations of state or county sanitary codes.

“Neighbor disputes need to be resolved between the parties in a civil fashion and should not devolve into vigilante criminal behavior,” District Attorney David Hoovler said.

Gemma is scheduled to be sentenced Sept. 15. Prosecutors say he could face anything from probation to up to one year in the Orange County Jail, along with possible restitution, community service and other court-ordered conditions.

Great review from Joe... "I had a fantastic experience with Adam from Electric Sewer & Drain Services (ES&DS). He was incredibly professional from start to finish. Not only did he efficiently handle the job and put everything back together perfectly, but he also went above and beyond by thoroughly cleaning up the sink area—honestly leaving it much cleaner and freer of dust than it was before he started!

What really sets Adam apart is his expertise and proactive approach. Instead of just fixing the immediate issue and rushing off, he took the time to give me a clear breakdown of my plumbing health:

Proactive Diagnostics: He noticed the P-trap is starting to corrode and let me know it will likely need a replacement during the next service, preventing a future emergency.

Accurate Clog Location: He pinpointed that the main blockage is likely heavily rusted and located about 50 feet away in the main line, somewhere between the second and third floors.

Preventative Advice: He even gave me a simple maintenance tip to run hot water down both the kitchen and bathroom sinks for 15 minutes once a week to keep things moving smoothly.

It is rare to find a technician this thorough, clean, and knowledgeable. If you call Electric Sewer & Drain Services (ES&DS), definitely ask for Adam!"

Even on a Saturday we go out and handle our business! Out at a local car dealer clearing out that winter muck from the drains. We even got on the water jet! The dealer is back in action and we are off to the next stoppage!

On today’s episode of “What’s in the pipe” we discover a bunch of sludge and this nice big brick of Grease! Too bad it was not gold! We got it out and we cleared that pipe but this is a perfect situation of when preventive maintenance is needed!
