There appears to be no rhyme or reason to why their names were included on the list, other than they had been previously arrested in Howard Beach. Many of them had been busted for misdemeanors such as shoplifting, driving without a license or low-level drug possession. Only three of the 50 had been arrested previously for violent crimes, according to the list. There is also no pattern to the men’s ages — they range from their early twenties to mid-sixties.
