U.S. Attorney Blames Phil Murphy for DWI Death of New Jersey Mother and Daughter At Hands of Illegal Alien with Long Rap Sheet

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

A Mexican national living illegally in the United States is facing vehicular homicide charges after a head-on crash in Lakewood, New Jersey, that killed a mother and her 11-year-old daughter and hospitalized another child.

Raul Luna Perez was arrested on July 27 after allegedly veering into oncoming traffic and colliding with another vehicle, according to local officials. He has been charged with two counts of vehicular homicide and assault.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) lodged a detainer against Luna Perez the following day, initiating removal proceedings while he remains in custody on the homicide charges. He was taken from the Ocean County Jail in Toms River to Delaney Hall, an ICE detention facility in Elizabeth.

No More Sanctuary Cities – U.S. Attorney Declares

“A mother and her 11-year-old daughter are dead because a criminal illegal alien in NJ, previously arrested for domestic violence & DUIs, was released under Governor Murphy’s sanctuary policies,” U.S. Attorney for New Jersey Alina Habba said. “These deaths were preventable, and these criminals must be held accountable. Despite his absurd release on bail from the state, he has now been taken into ICE custody. These deadly policies put politics over innocent lives. NO MORE SANCTUARY CITIES.”

“Governor Murphy and his sanctuary policies released this serial criminal into New Jersey communities,” said Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “Now, this innocent family is shattered by their failed leadership. President Trump and Secretary Noem will continue to do everything in their power to remove these criminal illegal aliens before they destroy more lives.”

Federal records show Luna Perez had multiple prior arrests. He was previously taken into custody for domestic violence in 2023 and twice for driving under the influence earlier this year in Red Bank, New Jersey. Despite these charges, he was released each time under New Jersey’s sanctuary state policies.

  • On June 25, 2023, the Red Bank Police Department arrested Raul Luna Perez for simple domestic violence.
  • On March 20, 2025, the Red Bank Police Department arrested Raul Luna Perez for a DUI.
  • On April 17, 2025, the Red Bank Police Department arrested Raul Luna Perez for a DUI.

Officials have not disclosed when or how Luna Perez entered the country. ICE said his release into the community followed the state’s refusal to cooperate with federal immigration detainers due to state policy.

The crash has drawn renewed federal criticism of New Jersey’s state sanctuary policies. DHS officials say their agents are working to prevent repeat tragedies by removing previously arrested undocumented immigrants from the U.S.

Key Points

  • Raul Luna Perez charged with killing a mother and 11-year-old daughter in a Lakewood head-on crash
  • Perez had three prior arrests, including two DUIs and a domestic violence charge
  • ICE has lodged a detainer and begun deportation proceedings as Perez remains in custody

By: Breaking Local News Report

A heated confrontation over a neighborhood dog fight escalated into criminal charges after a woman allegedly hurled a cup during a July 26 altercation on Pear Street in Cumberland, striking another woman in the leg.

Debra Lee Linaburg, 65, was served with a criminal summons on Sunday following a Cumberland Police response to the 200 block of Pear Street at approximately 8:14 a.m. Police say Linaburg became involved in a dispute after dogs began fighting outside a residence. During the confrontation, she allegedly threw a cup, which shattered on the sidewalk and roadway.

An individual on scene told officers the cup struck her leg during the argument. Police filed for charges following their investigation, and Linaburg was charged with second-degree assault, disorderly conduct, and littering under 100 pounds. She was released pending trial.

In a separate incident, 58-year-old Robert Morris was also served a criminal summons Saturday after a private citizen filed second-degree assault charges against him at the Allegany County District Court. Details of that alleged incident were not disclosed in the police report. Morris was released pending trial.

Stephanie Lynn Oakes, 48, was the third individual served over the weekend. Oakes faces a charge of failing to comply with a peace order after a private citizen complaint. The summons was issued Sunday, and she was released pending trial.

Key Points

  • Debra Linaburg charged after allegedly throwing a cup during a dispute sparked by a dog fight
  • Robert Morris and Stephanie Oakes also served with criminal summonses in unrelated cases
  • All three individuals were released pending trial

Off-Duty NYPD Officer Arrested for Assault in the Bronx

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

In the early hours of Monday morning, August 4, 2025, an off-duty NYPD police officer was arrested and charged with assault in the Bronx.

Authorities say 35-year-old Joseph Rivera was taken into custody around 3:20 a.m. within the boundaries of the 45th Precinct.

The details surrounding the incident have not yet been released, but the arrest of a law enforcement officer is already drawing attention from both the public and police oversight groups.

Rivera, a member of the New York City Police Department, now faces serious legal and professional consequences as the case unfolds.

While the NYPD has not commented on the circumstances of the arrest, it is standard protocol for the department’s Internal Affairs Bureau to open an investigation when one of its own is charged with a crime—particularly a violent offense like assault.

Department of Justice Investigating Voter Fraud in New Jersey Ahead of 2026 Midterms Using Power of Biden Executive Order

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

The Department of Justice wants to see New Jersey’s voter registration database to make sure election fraud is being kept in check ahead of next year’s midterm elections.

In a move to crack down on election-related crimes, U.S. Attorney Alina Habba announced the launch of a new federal Election Integrity Task Force based in Newark.

The initiative will combine the efforts of federal prosecutors with top-tier law enforcement agencies, including the FBI and the Department of Homeland Security. This team will focus on ensuring that all elections in New Jersey are conducted lawfully and fairly—aiming squarely at rooting out fraud and enhancing public trust in the electoral process.

The task force was created in response to President Biden’s March 2025 Executive Order on election integrity and is designed to sharpen coordination between federal, state, and local authorities. Its objectives include purging voter rolls of ineligible voters, prosecuting voter fraud cases, and monitoring for illegal foreign interference.

Investigations will cover a range of offenses—from casting fraudulent ballots to attempts by non-citizens to vote, to violations of campaign finance laws involving foreign funds.

Attorney Habba made it clear that the Department of Justice is not taking election security lightly.

“We will vigorously pursue anyone who violates or attempts to violate federal laws designed to safeguard elections,” she said.

The task force encourages the public to report suspected election crimes through a dedicated hotline at (888) 636-6596 or online at tips.fbi.gov. As the 2026 midterms draw nearer, New Jersey voters can expect their ballots to be watched more closely than ever before.

Domestic assault lands Marvin Mendez Ramirez in Ocean County Jail

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

A man is sitting in the Ocean County jail today following a domestic incident that led to serious assault charges. Marvin Mendez Ramirez was booked into the jail early Monday morning, and is currently being held pending a pre-trial hearing.

He’s facing one charge of attempted assault, specifically for allegedly trying to purposely or knowingly cause bodily injury to another person. The charge stems from a violation of New Jersey’s criminal code on simple assault, which becomes more serious when domestic violence is involved.

Mendez Ramirez, who is single and of Hispanic descent, has no prior aliases and no listed education history. Jail records provide little else about his background—his country of birth and citizenship remain unspecified.

At this time, no ICE detainers were filed for Ramirez.

Crash probe snarls I-287 traffic as tire debris clogs Turnpike lanes in NJ morning rush

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

New Jersey commuters faced delays on key roadways Monday morning, with a crash investigation on I-287 and tire debris slowing traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike.

At 8:35 a.m., officials responded to a crash investigation on I-287 northbound just north of Exit 21 for I-78 in Bedminster Township. Two of the three lanes were closed, backing up traffic on the interstate. The extent of the incident and any injuries has not yet been disclosed, but the partial lane closures are contributing to localized delays.

Meanwhile, tire debris on the northbound outer roadway of the New Jersey Turnpike just past Interchange 8A (NJ 32) in South Brunswick Township was reported at 8:39 a.m. All lanes remained open, but drivers were advised to proceed with caution through the affected stretch.

Despite the incidents, traffic to the Jersey Shore remained steady and largely free of significant backups. Garden State Parkway travel times showed minimal congestion, with southbound drives from the Raritan Toll Plaza to Exit 117 in Sandy Hook clocking in at 7 minutes. Trips further down to Belmar and Long Beach Island were averaging 25 and 59 minutes respectively.

Atlantic City-bound traffic showed similar conditions, with drive times from the Raritan Toll Plaza holding at 1 hour and 22 minutes via either express or local lanes. Ocean City and Wildwood traffic also moved smoothly, with average travel times of 1 hour 32 minutes and 1 hour 54 minutes respectively.

On arterial roads, US Route 22 moved efficiently with typical travel times. Eastbound traffic from Country Club Road to I-287 took 5 minutes, while the longer 25-mile stretch from N. Gaston Avenue to US 1&9 was at 38 minutes. Westbound travel times from Glenside Avenue to I-287 registered at 18 minutes.

Morning commuters encountered manageable congestion levels across much of the state, aside from the I-287 lane closures and caution required near the Turnpike debris zone.

Key Points

  • Crash investigation shuts down two lanes on I-287 northbound in Bedminster
  • Tire debris reported on NJ Turnpike near Interchange 8A, all lanes remain open
  • Shore-bound Garden State Parkway traffic flowing with no major delays

Mikie Sherrill wants to keep Phil Murphy’s 2035 New Jersey gas car ban despite bipartisan House rejection

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

Congresswoman Mikie Sherrill voted to support Governor Phil Murphy’s 2035 ban on new gasoline-powered vehicles, aligning herself with a controversial emissions plan that was condemned in a bipartisan vote in the House of Representatives.

The vote came in response to H.J.Res.88, a measure introduced to overturn the Environmental Protection Agency’s approval of California’s Advanced Clean Cars II rule, which also applies to states like New Jersey that adopt California’s emission standards. The rule aims to phase out the sale of new gas-powered cars by 2035 in favor of electric vehicles.

Fact Check: Was there a house vote to overturn the Clean Cars II approval?

On May 1, the House passed the resolution by a vote of 246 to 164, with both Republicans and Democrats opposing the clean car mandates. Sherrill, a Democratic candidate for New Jersey governor, voted against the resolution—effectively siding with Murphy’s plan to eliminate new gas car sales within a decade.

Many Democrats voted in favor of killing the Clean Cars II proposal. Sherill wanted to keep it going.

Governor Murphy wants to ban the sale of gasoline powered vehicles in New Jersey by 2035, a move which has little support in the Garden State. Sherill’s vote locked her in as a supporter of the policy.

Her vote places her in a shrinking minority as a growing number of lawmakers from both parties raise concerns over the feasibility and economic impact of the electric vehicle transition. Critics of the 2035 ban argue it threatens consumer choice, strains the electric grid, and could drive up vehicle costs.

Fact Check: Did Mikie Sherrill vote in opposition of the objection of the Clean Cars II gas powered car ban?

Despite the resolution’s bipartisan support, Sherrill has remained firm in backing the gas vehicle phase-out, signaling her continued support for Murphy’s environmental policies as she seeks to succeed him as governor.

Key Points

  • Mikie Sherrill voted against a House resolution condemning gas car bans by New Jersey and California
  • The resolution passed 246-164 with bipartisan support to block the EPA-approved plan
  • Sherrill remains a supporter of New Jersey’s 2035 ban on new gasoline-powered vehicles

Sherrill’s vote to uphold Murphy’s gas car ban sets a clear line in the sand ahead of the New Jersey governor’s race.

Ocean County man Arturo Pazmartinez charged with domestic violence and strangulation

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

An Ocean County man is behind bars this week following serious domestic violence charges that have landed him in the Ocean County jail on Sunday.

Arturo Pazmartinez was charged with aggravated assault and attempted bodily injury—both related to a domestic violence incident. Authorities allege Pazmartinez strangled the victim, which triggered the more severe charge under New Jersey’s strict domestic violence laws.

Records show no detainers from immigration services at this time.

The charges he faces—aggravated assault through strangulation and attempted injury—are no small matter. The aggravated assault charge is classified as a second-degree offense under New Jersey law, signaling the seriousness of the alleged charges.

If convicted, Pazmartinez could be looking at a significant prison sentence.

Oh, Canada, we can’t breathe down here—put out your fires already

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

New Jersey has had enough. For the second summer in a row, Canadian wildfires are fouling up our skies, tanking air quality across the Northeast and turning summer days into smoke-filled warnings. We didn’t ask for this haze, and we sure didn’t light the match—so why are we the ones holding our breath?

As of Monday, more than 730 wildfires were actively burning across Canada, with over 200 classified as out of control by the Canadian Interagency Forest Fire Centre. That out-of-control chaos is now wafting across the border, dragging down air quality from Wisconsin to Maine—and yes, once again, New Jersey is in the thick of it.

What’s supposed to be a week of beautiful August weather in the Garden State is now clouded by toxic skies. From North Jersey to the Shore, residents are being told to stay indoors, limit activity, and shut their windows—while the smoke outside continues to roll in like a slow-moving threat. Hazy conditions and an acrid smell are reminders that wildfires hundreds of miles away are still making life harder at home.

While New Jersey keeps its own air in check, we’re left to deal with a foreign smog problem we didn’t create. At least eight U.S. states were under air quality alerts Monday, including New Jersey, thanks to the Canadian wildfire smoke that continues to drift south. Detroit and Chicago even ranked among the world’s top ten worst cities for air quality to start the week.

We’re tired of choking on your smoke, Canada. You’ve got hundreds of wildfires burning and no end in sight. We understand it’s a big country, and forest management is no small job—but this isn’t just your problem anymore. It’s ours too, and it’s time you treated it like the cross-border crisis it is.

Maybe stop worrying about Trump and start putting out your damn fires already.

New Jersey isn’t looking for a fight, just a breath of fresh air. We’re tired of waiting for the winds to change.

Key Points

  • Over 730 wildfires are burning in Canada, with 200-plus out of control
  • Smoke has triggered air quality alerts across the Northeast, including New Jersey
  • Residents are urged to stay indoors due to worsening air conditions from drifting smoke

New Jersey wants clear skies, not another summer spent suffocating on Canada’s smoke.

By: Breaking Local News Report

Simcha Feldman, 34, was charged with Endangering the Welfare of a Child following the July 29 incident, according to Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer.

At approximately 3:15 p.m., a Lakewood police officer unloading items from his patrol vehicle noticed a small child alone inside a nearby parked vehicle that was locked and not running. The officer used a lock-out tool to open the vehicle and safely remove the child.

The child was evaluated by Lakewood First Aid and then transported to Monmouth Medical Center Southern Campus, where he was treated and released.

An investigation by the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit and the Lakewood Township Police Department revealed that Feldman had left his son unattended in the car for approximately 24 minutes while he was away from the vehicle.

Feldman was taken into custody at the scene without incident and transported to the Ocean County Jail. He has since been released after his pretrial hearing.

Key Points

Life without parole for man who killed girlfriend and her son, leaving 8-year-old boy with the bodies

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

A Buford man was convicted Thursday of murdering his live-in girlfriend and her teenage son in a 2021 shooting that left their bodies locked in a bedroom for two days while an 8-year-old child unknowingly remained in the home, prosecutors said.

William Jerome Adams, 29, was found guilty of two counts of felony murder and two counts of aggravated assault for the March 24, 2021, killings of Mary Lindsay, 39, and her 15-year-old son, Atif Muhammad Jr. A Gwinnett County jury sentenced Adams to two consecutive life terms without the possibility of parole.

The bodies were discovered on March 26 after Lindsay’s daughter, 19, climbed through a window to check on her mother, who had not been heard from in days. Inside the locked bedroom, she found Lindsay and Muhammad dead from gunshot wounds. An 8-year-old child, Lindsay’s youngest son, had been in the home the entire time.

Three 9mm shell casings were recovered at the scene. Investigators traced the ammunition to a handgun reportedly owned by Adams, which Muhammad’s twin sister had photographed days before the murder.

Prosecutors said Adams fled the state and tried to cross into Mexico under an assumed name but was arrested by Laredo police. Authorities also determined that Adams stole $2,000 from Lindsay’s bank account before his attempted escape.

During trial, witnesses testified to Adams’ abusive behavior and controlling nature. Prosecutors introduced an email where Lindsay documented injuries she allegedly sustained from him.

District Attorney Patsy Austin-Gatson called the sentence “fitting for a defendant who violently took the life of a mother and son.”

Key Points

  • William Jerome Adams found guilty of murdering girlfriend and her 15-year-old son
  • Victims’ bodies were locked in a room for two days with 8-year-old still in the house
  • Adams arrested in Texas while attempting to flee to Mexico with stolen funds

FBI Director Says Trove of Russia Hoax Docs Found in Agency’s Burn Room

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

FBI Director Kash Patel claimed in a public statement that the bureau uncovered and declassified a trove of documents tied to the Russia investigation—some of which were reportedly discovered in a “burn room” inside FBI headquarters.

Patel, who was appointed FBI Director under President Donald J. Trump, said the documents include a previously unreleased Durham annex and files related to the Steele Dossier, which he described as “fictitious intelligence.”

He accused former FBI officials of using the dossier to unlawfully surveil Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign.

“The same media is calling me a liar again,” Patel wrote in a public statement. “Maybe this FBI will release more docs directly, from FBI HQ… so we can see who is lying.”

Patel previously served as chief investigator for the House Intelligence Committee under then-Chairman Devin Nunes. He was a central figure in efforts to challenge the FBI’s handling of the FISA warrant process and publicly criticized how the bureau used the Steele Dossier in its investigation.

The original investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and alleged connections to Trump’s campaign resulted in multiple indictments but found insufficient evidence to charge anyone within the campaign with conspiracy.

Key Points

  • New FBI Director Kash Patel claims hidden Russiagate files were found in FBI HQ
  • Patel says the documents include a Durham annex and Steele Dossier materials
  • The FBI has not publicly confirmed Patel’s statements or released related documents

High school teacher and coach accused of choking 15-year-old student unconscious

by Breaking Local News Report
By: Breaking Local News Report

A North Carolina high school teacher and basketball coach has been charged with assault by strangulation and child abuse after allegedly placing a 15-year-old student in a choke hold that caused the teen to lose consciousness, according to police and court records.

Devon Murphy, 41, a criminal justice instructor and varsity boys’ basketball coach at Douglas Byrd High School in Fayetteville, was arrested Thursday and booked into the Cumberland County Detention Center. His charges stem from a March 25 incident involving one of his students.

According to an arrest warrant, Murphy allegedly wrapped his arm around the student’s neck in a choke hold until the teen passed out. The student also reportedly suffered swelling on the right side of his forehead.

Police said Murphy was in a position of authority over the student due to his role as a teacher. Investigators stated he “willfully inflicted physical injury” on the child, who is under the age of 16.

Murphy has since been suspended from his duties at the school. His arrest followed a months-long investigation by the Fayetteville Police Department.

He is facing one felony count of assault by strangulation and one misdemeanor count of child abuse. No court date has been publicly announced.

Key Points

  • Devon Murphy, 41, arrested and charged with choking a student unconscious
  • Incident allegedly took place on March 25 at Douglas Byrd High School
  • Murphy is suspended from his teaching and coaching roles amid the investigation

A North Carolina teacher is under fire after allegedly choking a student into unconsciousness during a disturbing classroom incident.
