On November 9, representatives from the Manhattan District Attorney's Office (DA) and the Roosevelt Island Public Safety Department conducted a joint presentation on the:

Criminal Justice System & Arrest To Sentencing Process

The video at top of the post shows my question specifically regarding crime on Roosevelt Island and response from the DA's representatives. According to the DA's Community Coordinator, Roosevelt Island is pretty much like the rest of New York - there are some violations, low level drug cases, marijuana cases and some serious drug arrests in the past.

Here's the entire presentation beginning with introduction by RIOC's Community Relations Specialist Erica Spencer-El and Public Safety Department Director Keith Guerra,
