New Jersey Attorney General Suing “Cash Strapped, Struggling” United States Post Office

by Breaking Local News Report August 19, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

TRENTON, NJ – The United States Postal Service says it’s losing money and is need of a financial bailout due to COVID-19’s business shut down, but that’s not stopping New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal from launching a lawsuit against the struggling agency.

Quarantines, stay-at-home orders, and travel and logistics restrictions in connection with the outbreak have affected retail and commercial customers, as well as suppliers and mail service providers. The Postal Service relies on the sale of postal products and services to fund its operations and is significantly impacted by factors including, but not limited to, overall customer demand, the mix of postal services and contribution associated with those services, and the volume of mail and packages processed through its network.

As a result of the pandemic, and to a lesser extent, secular mail declines, the Postal Service’s sales from mail services, its largest sales category, continued to significantly decline during the third quarter.

Grewal today tweeted, “I can confirm: New Jersey will be suing @USPS. . Voting by mail is safe, secure, and reliable. We intend to keep it that way. As AG, I’ve made it my mission to hold accountable those who try to corrupt our political process. Lawsuit coming soon.”

“The ability to borrow an additional $10 billion under the CARES Act addresses the Postal Service’s near-term liquidity crisis but does not address the Postal Service’s broken business model. It merely postpones the impending liquidity crisis and the borrowings must be repaid in a period where cash shortages are forecasted,” the post office said.

Now the post office, already in financial distress will have to stave off a politically motivated lawsuit from Gurbir Grewal and New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy who are both hellbent on having the service be the primary delivery method for federal election ballots this upcoming November.

Trump Sues Governor Phil Murphy, Says New Jersey Mail-In Elections Plagued with Fraud, Confusion, Errors

by Phil Stilton August 19, 2020

By: Phil Stilton

TOMS RIVER, NJ – President Donald Trump’s political campaign and the Republican National Committee and the New Jersey Republican Party have filed a lawsuit in federal court to block Governor Phil Murphy’s attempt to usurp the 2020 election by ordering a vote-by-mail election and making it difficult for voters to cast their ballot in person.

The lawsuit filed Tuesday night seeks to invalidate Governor Phil Murphy’s Executive Order 177.

“This unconstitutional order violates New Jerseyans’ 14th Amendment right to vote, as well as the Elections Clause and the Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution. The unlawful power grab by New Jersey Democrats has demonstrably opened the state’s election system up to fraud and will lead to the disenfranchisement of New Jersey voters,” Trump’s campaign said in the filing. “In defense of free and fair elections, the Trump Campaign cannot allow for Democrat party bosses to undermine the integrity of our democracy.”

“In a direct usurpation of the legislature’s authority, Governor Murphy issued Executive Order 177 purporting to rewrite the election code for the November 2020 election. This brazen power grab was not authorized by state law and violates both the Elections Clause and Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution,” Trump said.

In New Jersey, the Governor is not the Legislature and thus cannot exercise legislative power.

“Across the country, the Democrat Party is launching an alarming assault on the safety and security of our elections,” Matt Morgan, Trump 2020 General Counsel said. “In the state of New Jersey, where their universal vote-by-mail system has already resulted in fraud and disenfranchisement, Governor Murphy continues to remove safeguards against abuse. With a stroke of his pen, the governor told his people their votes may not count – they may even be stolen – and that’s fine by him. Despite constant attacks on our election system, President Trump and the Trump Campaign will continue to defend our democracy.”

“Governor Murphy’s executive order is not only an abuse of power, but a recipe for disaster. In New Jersey’s primary election, dead people voted, a mail truck carrying ballots actually caught fire, countless voters saw their ballots rejected, and the Democrat Attorney General is prosecuting multiple people for fraud, yet Democrats still want to implement a rushed transition to an all mail election,” said Ronna McDaniel, Chairwoman of the Republican National Committee. “This decision will sow chaos and risk disenfranchising New Jersey voters.”

Trump said Murphy’s Executive Order 177 violates New Jerseyans’ 14th Amendment right to vote, as well as the Elections Clause and the Electors Clause of the U.S. Constitution and that the order treats in-person voting – the most secure voting method – as second class by deeming every in-person ballot cast as merely a provisional ballot.

“This is a clear admission that New Jersey’s election infrastructure cannot handle universal vote-by-mail,” Trump said.

Trump’s campaign echoed most of what Shore News Network has been reporting since the failed July election.

New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy called the state’s transition to universal vote-by-mail “overwhelmingly a success,” and quipped that New Jersey has “a higher probability of being hit by lightning than we do uncovering voter fraud.

“If he’s right about the odds, citizens of New Jersey should take shelter—they’re about to get struck by lightning,” Trump said.

In the last election, 10% of mail-in ballots were rejected, disenfranchising voters.

A 2016 investigation found 2,460 active voters on the state’s voter rolls who had been dead for at least five years, including nearly sixty who had cast ballots after their death. Under the New Jersey governor’s new order, all active registered voters – including the dead – would be sent ballots. Fraudsters in New Jersey have already been caught bribing voters with cash for their mail-in ballots. For New Jersey’s May primary, Governor Murphy shut down every polling place and embraced universal vote-by-mail. In Paterson New Jersey, there was evidence of massive voter fraud.

“In his haste, the Governor created a system that will violate eligible citizens’ right to vote. By ordering universal vote-by-mail, he has created a recipe for disaster. Fraudulent and invalid votes dilute the votes of honest citizens and deprive them of their right to vote in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment,” Trump said.

As reported by Shore News Network, The July primary was plagued with voting problems. To begin, more than 40,000 ballots were rejected. That’s eight times as many rejected ballots as the 2016 primary election. Hudson County alone had over 6,000 rejected ballots this year, more than the entire state for 2016.

“To make matters worse, the primary suffered from constant delays. Although the Secretary of State had set a deadline of July 24 for counties to certify their election results, seven counties did not meet that deadline. The Secretary of State did not certify the results until over a month after the election,” Trump stated in the lawsuit.

Trump also noted that Republican candidate Hirsh Singh contested the results of the primary because “[t]ens of thousands of ballots remain uncounted, rejected or lost, disenfranchising tens of thousands of New Jersey voters.” For example, a number of ballots were mistakenly returned to voters due to confusion at the post office. Other ballots were misprinted and mailed to the wrong voters. And one county clerk reported that “her office got back about 1,500 ballots that they sent out,” attributing the mistake to “‘garbage data’ in the system.”

Watch: Atilis Gym Owners Slapped with $134,463 in Fines, Fear Another Arrest is Imminent

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

BELLMAWR, NJ – Defiant New Jersey gym owners Ian Smith and Frank Trumbetti, owners of the Bellmawr based Atilis Gym were back in court today and received over $134,463 in fines.

“Governor Murphy once again gets his wishes in his home court with Judge Robert Lougy. Frank and I have once again been unable to speak and defend ourselves, we have once again been subject to a court over the telephone, and are now being fined over $15,000 per day. The police are once again coming to arrest us and construct a barricade in front of our building. We are not backing down,” Smith said.

From August 10th, the gym is to pay $15,497.73 per day for each day they are in operation in addition to having to pay $146,00 for violating the litigant’s (Murphy’s) rights. They must also pay $10,481 to the Attorney General’s Office for their legal fees.

Smith said the state also ordered the gym to be permanently barricaded to stop the owners from continuing to open during the long-extended Murphy lockdown. He also said he feels that he and his partner will be arrested again.

“We’ll be arrested for the second time for the serious crime of operating a business,” he said.

Smith cited a 1998 Supreme Court ruling that barred the government from charging excessive fines in cases such as this.

New Jersey Attorney General Gurbir Grewal Bags and Tags 5 More in Political Corruption Sweep

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

TRENTON, NJ – It’s refreshing to see the state government in New Jersey stepping away from partisan issues in the Garden State and even more refreshing knowing that New Jersey finally has an attorney general who’s not afraid to stomp out political corruption.

Last week, Grewal’s political corruption task force announced that former Middlesex Borough Mayor Ronald J. DiMura pleaded guilty today to a charge that he stole more than $75,000 from various local political campaigns.

A few days earlier, Grewal’s office announced that the former operator of the Wrightstown Municipal Utilities Authority pleaded guilty to a criminal charge for using the municipal authority to dispose of waste from his private septic disposal company without proper authorization and failing to report that waste disposal to the state as required.

This week, Grewal announced charges against five new defendants in the investigation of an alleged straw donor scheme that previously resulted in charges against an attorney, Elizabeth Valandingham.The charges stem from a corruption investigation by the Office of Public Integrity and Accountability (OPIA) that led in December 2019 to five former public officials and political candidates being charged with taking bribes.

Valandingham, 47, of Morristown, N.J., was charged on June 17, 2020 with false representation for government contracts and misconduct by a corporate official, both second-degree offenses.The charges relate to alleged conduct between 2012 and 2017 at the law firm where she worked.

It is alleged that Valandingham and an unnamed co-conspirator recruited straw donors in a scheme to make illicit campaign contributions on behalf of the law firm, often in excess of the contribution limits, and to avoid disclosure of those contributions.Straw donors are individuals who contribute to a candidate but are unlawfully reimbursed by another person or entity, in this case the law firm. Under New Jersey Election Law, it is illegal for a person to reimburse another person for a political contribution or to give or lend another person money to make a contribution to a specific candidate.

The straw donors recruited in the scheme involving Valandingham – including the five individuals charged yesterday – allegedly would routinely write checks on their personal checking accounts and in their own names to various candidates and political committees, while being contemporaneously reimbursed with cash deposits directly into their checking and/or savings accounts.During the course of the scheme, the straw donors collectively contributed and were reimbursed in cash for approximately $239,000 worth of donations.

“New Jersey’s campaign finance and pay-to-play laws are designed to ensure that law firms and other contractors cannot purchase an unfair advantage in the competition for public contracts by making undisclosed or overly large campaign contributions,” said Attorney General Grewal.“We are determined to hold individuals accountable if they seek to distort the political process and public contracting by making illegal contributions through the type of straw donor scheme alleged here.”

Each of the following straw donors allegedly made tens of thousands of dollars in contributions to various candidates and party committees only to be reimbursed by the law firm with cash deposits into one or more of his or her bank or financial accounts.Each was charged yesterday by complaint-summons with fourth-degree concealment or misrepresentation of contributions.

Vanessa Brown, 40, of West Caldwell, N.J.
Christopher Brown, 37, of West Caldwell, N.J.
Ricardo Balanzateguimaldo, 40, of Bogota, N.J.
Erin O’Reilly, aka Erin DeMauro, 41, of Lincoln Park, N.J.
Suzanne P. Gayet, 63, of Boonton, N.J.

Valandingham was previously charged in connection with her role in preparing and submitting annual proposals to municipalities for the law firm to be awarded public contracts for legal services.In submitting proposals through which the firm successfully secured such contracts, she allegedly deliberately failed to disclose local political contributions the firm made during the prior year.The municipalities required that such contributions be disclosed as part of the public contracting process, but Valandingham allegedly failed to disclose the contributions made by the straw donors and instead indicated the firm made no reportable political contributions.Valandingham was charged specifically in connection with proposals for contracts in Bloomfield and Mount Arlington.

Now, we are being told Grewal’s political corruption wing is looking into the botched sale of public land by Toms River Mayor Maurice “Mo” Hill to a member of the Lakewood Township Planning Board. We’ll have to sit tight to see if Grewal can extend his anti-corruption winning streak here at the Jersey Shore where many have gone done, including former Toms River School Board Superintendent Michael Ritacco, former Toms River Mayor Carmine Inteso, Van Pelt, Joseph Scarpelli and the list goes on.

During the Chris Christie years, political corruption in Ocean County was given a pass. We’ll learn soon if the tide has turned for the Jersey Shore.

FBI Seeking New Jersey Sex Trafficking Victims in the Jose Torres Investigation

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

NEWARK, NJ – The FBI, in coordination with the Department of Homeland Security, is asking for the public’s assistance to identify potential victims of an alleged sexual predator who hired sex workers and physically raped, assaulted, terrorized, and/or cheated the unsuspected parties.

Jose Torres, a 43-year-old, is currently in federal custody and charged with four counts of coercion and enticement in the United States District Court for the District of New Jersey. Torres has travelled frequently throughout the years and is suspected to have committed these offenses throughout the country, to include New Jersey, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, South Carolina, and California. Torres has been preying on sex workers for over 10 years and is believed to have numerous victims. Torres would locate his victims by utilizing various sex worker websites, including EROS, Erotic Monkey, Tryst, Backpage, etc. From there, he would entice them to meet by offering large sums of money and groom his victims towards engaging in sex trafficking activities at his direction or command. Most of his meetings would require the sex worker to travel interstate, many times at their own expense.

If you believe you may have been victimized by Jose Torres, or he has solicited your services, please email [email protected]. Your response is voluntary but would be useful in the federal investigation to identify you as a potential victim. Based on the response provided, you may be contacted by the FBI and asked to provide additional information.

The FBI is legally mandated to identify victims of federal crimes that it investigates and provide these victims with information, assistance services, and resources.

Black N.J. Correctional officer Suspended for Saying Murdered 5-Year-Old Cannon Hinnant “Should’ve Ducked”

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

CUMBERLAND COUNTY, NJ – Cumberland County correctional officer Rome Smith, who works for the county’s juvenile detention unit has been suspended after posting on Facebook that 5-year-old Cannon Hinnan, a white child, should have ducked when he was brutally shot and murdered by 25-year-old Darius Sessoms, a black man. Many believe the child’s murder was racially motivated.

“He should’ve ducked” Rome said. “Y’all always trying to sneak diss and discredit a black person being killed innocently by police. Blame cannon’s parents for not watching him.”

All of Smith’s social media pages are now either private or have been deleted.

We will not tolerate County employees using social media to broadcast hateful messages,” said Cumberland County Freeholder Director Joseph Derella. “This is not who we are and we intend to pursue the strongest action available to us.”

Hinnant was murdered by Sessoms while riding his bike outside his family’s home in Wilson, North Carolina when he was shot in the head and killed. Sessoms is being held in jail on first-degree murder charges.

By: Breaking Local News Report

JERSEY CITY, NJ – On August 14, 2020, at approximately 11:00 a.m., members of the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit arrested Donato Cabardo, age 56, of Jersey City. Cabardo was arrested in connection with alleged sexual crimes that occurred in the rectory at St. Paul of the Cross Church in Jersey City where Cabardo is a diocesan priest. He was arrested without incident after surrendering himself at the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office in Jersey City.

Cabardo has been charged with two counts of fourth-degree Criminal Sexual Contact in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:14-3b and one count of Harassment in violation of N.J.S.A. 2C:33-4b, a petty disorderly persons offense.

The alleged crimes involved an adult female victim and were first reported to the Archdiocese of Newark. The Archdiocese notified the New Jersey Clergy Abuse Task Force and the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Special Victims Unit which then investigated the allegations.

The investigation revealed that between January and July 2020 Cabardo allegedly touched the victim’s breast and buttocks for the purpose of sexually arousing or sexually gratifying himself. He also allegedly pressed his cheek against her cheek and kissed her cheek, hand, face and head.

After his arrest, Cabardo was released on a Summons Complaint and his first appearance is scheduled in Central Judicial Processing Court on September 9, 2020. CJP Court is located on the ground floor of the Hudson County Courthouse, 595 Newark Avenue in Jersey City.

All information will be kept confidential.

Prosecutor Suarez credited members of the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office Special Victims Unit and the New Jersey Clergy Abuse Task Force. Four members of the Hudson County Prosecutor’s Office are also sworn members of the Clergy Abuse Task Force.

The Clergy Abuse Task Force was formed by Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal in September 2018. He also established a Clergy Abuse Hotline — 855-363-6548 — which is staffed by trained professionals and operated on a 24/7 basis. More than 600 calls have been received through the hotline to date. This is the third arrest of a priest by members of the Task Force since its inception.

The Clergy Abuse Task Force was formed to investigate allegations of sexual abuse by members of the clergy within the Catholic dioceses of New Jersey, as well as any efforts to cover up such abuse.

The above charges are merely accusations, and the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty. R.P.C.3.6(b)(6).

Now Out of Prison, Former Jackson Businesses Administrator Jose “Joey” Torres Wants His State Health Plan Back

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

JACKSON TOWNSHIP, NJ – Way back in 2010, nobody in Jackson wanted to hire former Paterson Mayor Jose “Joey” Torres to a $121,000 job as the Jackson Township business administrator. That is, except for Mayor Michael Reina and his puppet council members. In fact, there was an hours-long debate that raged (see videos below) from former Mayor Michael Kafton and the public as to why Reina should not hire his latest political hack to the position. The deal was facilitated by Reina and the Republican party to give Torres, a lifelong Democrat safe haven in Jackson with a large salary so he can get his three-year pension bump before returning to Paterson to run for mayor again.

Torres eventually left Jackson and went back to Paterson where he became mayor…then got himself put in jail for political corruption. It was the same sort of political corruption that he got away with for several years in Jackson while he was bumping his pension and riding high on the hog in Jackson, courtesy of Mayor Michael Reina.

Now, he’s out of jail and wants Jackson Township to continue to pay for his free lifetime medical benefits.

Torres, now 61, had to resign himself from the position of mayor in Paterson upon entering prison, he lost his free benefits.

According to a story over at NJ.com, his time on the job as business administrator in Jackson and his increased pension qualified him for the health benefits. Torres told NorthJersey.com he had no idea why the state dropped his benefits. Maybe it had something to do with a political corruption conviction and prison sentence?

He was sentenced to five years in prison in 2017 for having city employees work on private projects for his family and friends during working hours, paid for by the city. He was released on parole in 2018 after serving just 13 months in prison.

What is with these mayors in New Jersey with three names? Check out what this other “three named mayor” just tried to pull down in Toms River.

Portland’s Fake ANTIFA Police Department Has First Police Brutality Case, Imagine That

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

PORTLAND, OR – When the thugs of Antifa took over parts of Portland, Oregon protesting police brutality and usurped the local police department, they formed their own police and security force. Now, less than three months since its inception the ANTIFA police department of Oregon has its first police brutality case. The real Portland Police Department which has essentially been missing in action since late May is now looking for 25-year-old Marquise Love, a member of the self-appointed ANTIFA police and security force that roams the street with a vest that says “Security” wearing a hat that aims to portray himself as an actual police officer, even though he’s not.

Ironically, the wannabe police department was formed in response to claims of police oppression and police brutality.

Love’s assault of an innocent man was captured on video by his fellow ANTIFA thugs which has been used as evidence on the Portland Police Department to begin a manhunt for Love. They are now politely asking Mr. Love to turn himself in after a few attempts to contact him were made.

“Investigators have left messages for Love to turn himself in but will continue to look for him as there is probable cause for his arrest,” the kind police department said. “PPB Investigators have been made aware of attempts by members of the public to contact Love after possible personal information was posted online. Investigators urge the public to not do this as it can be dangerous. Also, the information circulating on social media is not always accurate.”

The man who Love kicked and knocked out after he was pulled from his pickup truck and beaten is now recovering after a stay in the hospital according to police. He is not dead, as has been reported on social media in the past few days.

— Andy Ngô (@MrAndyNgo) August 17, 2020

“Other reports around social media claim that the victim in this case is not recovering or has succumbed to the injuries. These reports are false. The victim has been released from the hospital and is recovering,” the department said.

While searching for Love, the Portland Police said they are also looking for a transgender female who was also robbed by the ANTIFA thugs.

“Investigators are still trying to locate a transgender female who had some of her things stolen in the area of Southwest Taylor and 4th Ave, the location where this incident began. That person has not been contacted and their identity is unknown. Investigators would like to speak to this person,” the department said.

Anyone with information about this incident is asked to call Detective Brent Christensen at 503-823-2087 or at [email protected].

The real Portland Police Department said they are taking this matter seriously, after not taking the riots and assaults all that seriously since May.

“The Portland Police Bureau is taking this assault and other incidents of violence extremely seriously,” said Chief Lovell. “Our Detectives continue to investigate this assault as well as other acts of violence directed toward protestors, but we need more than just videos from social media. In order to hold individuals responsible for criminal acts, we need the public to provide information and refrain from tampering with evidence.”

If you know the whereabouts of Love and the missing transgender female, please call the police department. Only in liberal America does this story make any sense.

Was BLM Protester Wrongfully Accused by Seaside Heights Police? OC Prosecutor Now Investigating

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ – What was initially reported as an assault by a Black Lives Matter protester in Seaside Heights might not have been what it seems. The Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office has now taken over the investigation in the matter to determine what really happened.

Ocean County Prosecutor Bradley D. Billhimer announced that the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office is currently reviewing the facts and circumstances surrounding an allegation of simple assault against Jamaal Holmes relative to an incident that occurred on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights, New Jersey, during the afternoon hours of Saturday, August 15, 2020. Any eyewitnesses to this incident are encouraged to contact Sgt. Thomas Tiernan of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at (732) 929-2027, extension 3149, or Detective David Margentino of the Ocean County Prosecutor’s Office at extension 3246.

Here’s what we know so far:

SEASIDE HEIGHTS, NJ – In an earlier report today we reported that a man was arrested for assaulting a 68-year-old man during a BLM march in Seaside Heights. A new video shared with Shore News Network today shows the man who got hit may have been the one who provoked the assault.

https://www.facebook.com/vivaLeViral/videos/1257277451284591/

At a Black Lives Matter march, which sported an Antifa flag of about two dozen people took place Saturday on the boardwalk in Seaside Heights. During the protest, the group chanted “Black Lives Matter” through a loudspeaker as they walked up and down the boardwalk. At one point, according to Seaside Heights police, 28-year-old Jamal Holmes got into a verbal altercation with an unidentified 68-year-old man near Sherman Avenue and the Boardwalk. Police said Holmes punch the man in the face. He was arrested and charged with simple assault.

Now the new video released by witnesses this morning showed the man approached Holmes prior to the altercations.

“Take the mask off, you scumbag,” the man said to Holmes. It’s hard to tell what happened next, but the man appeared to reach out towards Holmes and the man appears to have been pushed in self-defense.

What led up to the altercation prior to the video is still missing. Eyewitnesses detail a much different story than the one being told by the Seaside Heights Police Department.

A witness said the man showed up with a bicycle and initially was yelling at Boaz Matlack who was leading the march. Two witnesses claim the man’s speech was slurred and he appeared intoxicated. After the man approached the group, Boaz said “Have a good day sir”, as part of the group’s ‘kill them with kindness’ method.

“The [man] had came to our march and began heckling us like many others did but what he did unlike others was get physical,” said Aaliyah Castro. “I’m a young woman and this old man was in my face screaming profanities and had spit on me.”

Castro said she’s upset that Holmes is being portrayed as the aggressor when he was approached unsolicited by the man.

“We had people with opposing opinions yell towards us all day, it was expected and its totally fine,” she said “After yelling at Boaz and the rest of us were marching past him is when he began yelling towards the small section of the crowd I was in and had the chance to get close enough to my face yelling that I was spit on.”

Castro said it was at that point was where the man decided to move toward the back of the small crowd where Holmes was at and it got physical.

“When he didn’t get a reaction from myself and the few around me is when he moved to Jamal and had swung at Jamal saying, “Get that f*cking mask off you face sc*mbag.”

Then, the man swung at Holmes which knocked his phone down and in the same motion, Jones pushed the man away and did not punch the man.

“The man was drunk, like I said he spit on me and smelled of alcohol, so when he was pushed for hitting someone he fell back and tripped on his bike,” Castro said. “In the video he can briefly be seen laying next to the basket of his bike after his fall.”

State Troopers Rescue Six Occupants from Capsized Vessel in Point Pleasant Canal

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

POINT PLEASANT, NJ – Last Friday, August 14, troopers from the New Jersey State Police Marine Services Bureau Point Pleasant Station rescued six occupants after their vessel capsized in the Point Pleasant Canal.

At approximately 5:57 p.m., Staff Sergeant Paul Rodemann and Trooper I Ryan Koehler were dispatched to the report of a capsized 23-foot boat with six occupants in the Point Pleasant Canal in Point Pleasant Boro, Ocean County. When troopers arrived, they observed five victims struggling to stay afloat in the water. They discovered the sixth victim was still under the water.

As SSGT Rodemann and Tpr. Koehler prepared to enter the water to locate the victim, the victim emerged from under the capsized boat. The troopers then assisted the victims to shore, where they accounted for and transported back to Point Pleasant Station for a medical evaluation by EMS. There were no reported injuries.

The troopers’ quick and timely response led to the rescue, but this incident could have quickly become a tragedy due to the fact that none of the boat’s occupants were wearing personal flotation devices (life vests).

We would like remind everyone to make sure to have personal flotation devices for each person on board.

It’s now easier to tell you which states NJ doesn’t quarantine as 35 states now on the naughty list

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

TRENTON, NJ – Those damn “red” states with their indoor dining, indoor movie theaters, gyms and stupid things like, freedom of choice are putting New Jersey residents in a state of severe health risk. In order to protect the citizens and those senior citizens who did not die of COVID-19 when the governor sent infected senior citizens to nursing homes, Murphy’s looking out for us now.

“If you’re traveling to New Jersey from the following 35 states and territories, you should self-quarantine for 14 days: AL, AK, AZ, AR, CA, DE, FL, GA, HI, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, MD, MN, MS, MO, MT, NE, NV, NC, ND, OK, PR, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, VI, WI.”

Today, Delaware and Alaska were added to the list as those states haven’t lived up to the scientific standards of Governor Phil Murphy.

AMC Theaters Reopening Nationwide with 15 cent Movies, but Not in New Jersey

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

TOMS RIVER, NJ – AMC Theaters are reopening their doors nationwide, but not in New Jersey, because it’s a nanny state run by a tyrant Democratic Socialist governor who has continued to keep restaurants, gyms and movie theaters closed, even though the transmission rate of the virus has steady been better than most of the country for the past several months. While Murphy will tell you that’s because he has continued his five-month long excessive lockdown order in place, science is definitely telling 49 other governors across America something different.

This week, Murphy said he’s not sure when theaters will re-open but probably not any time soon.

“We’re just not there yet folks,” Murphy said.

While the rest of America enjoys 1920 movie ticket prices in 2020, New Jersey residents better enjoy staying home and watching your damn Netflix and Disney Plus. Maybe you can find a pop-up drive-in movie theater around the area, but don’t be pushing your luck, people.

So for the rest of America, there’s this:

In 1920, the Dubinsky Brothers began operations with a single movie screen in Kansas City, Missouri. That single screen would serve as the foundation for what is known today as AMC Entertainment (NYSE: AMC), the largest theatrical exhibitor in the United States, in Europe & the Middle East, and in the world. One hundred years later, as AMC reopens its doors to U.S. moviegoers for the first time in more than five months, AMC is celebrating its history with a throwback to the year it all started by offering “Movies in 2020 at 1920 Prices.” When the first wave of more than 100 AMC theatres reopens on August 20 of 2020, moviegoers can again enjoy the magic of the big screen at 1920 ticket prices. For one day only, on August 20, all tickets at AMC will be priced at 15 cents (plus sales tax).

This is part of a phased plan to reopen AMC in the United States. AMC currently expects to open approximately two thirds of its more than 600 U.S. theatre locations in time for the September 3 release of Warner Bros.’ TENET, following Disney’sAugust 28 release of THE NEW MUTANTS. The remainder of AMC’s U.S. theatres will open only after authorized to do so by state and local officials.

The one-day 15 cent ticketing celebration kicks off several promotions that guests will find as they return to AMC around the country. After August 20, bring-back titles such as the special INCEPTION 10^th anniversary event, as well as titles like BLACK PANTHER, BACK TO THE FUTURE, GHOSTBUSTERS, GREASE and STAR WARS: EPISODE V – THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK will be priced at only $5. AMC is also offering an array of $5 food and beverage treats, including regular popcorn, regular Coca-Cola Freestyle drink and KidsPacks, through the end of October. And all AMC Stubs members will earn double points on all ticket and food & drink purchases through the end of October.

Adam Aron, CEO and President of AMC Theatres, commented: “We are thrilled to once again open our doors to American moviegoers who are looking for an opportunity to get out of their houses and apartments and escape into the magic of the movies. As our guests return on our first day of resumed operations on August 20, we invite them to join us in celebrating a return to the movies, and in celebrating 100 years of AMC making smiles happen with movies at 1920 prices of only 15 cents each.”

In addition to the throwback movie titles that start August 20, guests can enjoy new movie releases almost immediately, which will be available at normal admission prices.

AMC Safe & Clean components include significant reductions in the maximum tickets available for each showtime and seat blocking in reserved seating auditoriums to allow for appropriate social distancing between parties, enhanced cleaning procedures that include extra time between showtimes to allow for a full, thorough cleaning and nightly disinfecting utilizing electrostatic sprayers, use of high tech HEPA vacuums, upgraded air filtration efforts including the use of MERV 13 filters wherever possible, new guest and associate safety protocols that include mandatory mask wearing by all guests and associates, hand sanitizing stations throughout the theatre, and the availability to guests of disinfectant wipes. The entire AMC Safe & Clean plan can be found at amctheatres.com/amc-safe-and-clean.

AMC is planning to open more than 100 theatres on August 20, with additional theatres to follow during the next two weeks. As currently planned, the following theatres are set to open on August 20, when guests can enjoy movie tickets for just 15 cents each (plus tax).

Police Rescue Drowning Woman from Metedeconk River

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

BRICK TOWNSHIP, NJ – On Saturday night, August 15th, just after 9:00 p.m. officers were called to the area of Eagle Point on the Metedeconk River in response to a woman missing in the water. Between the winds and strong current, the water was rough and the boat she had been on lost sight of her for several minutes when the boat’s operator called 9-1-1. Several officers responded to Eagle Point while others mobilized the two police boats out of Trader’s Cove Marina. The Coast Guard, State Police Marine Unit and the Brick Fire Department Dive Team were all notified as officers converged on the area where the victim last went missing.

Officers John Alexander and Eric Haugh were operating one of the police boats in the area where the boat operator stated he last saw the victim when they heard a faint call for help. The officers quickly found her and saw her having trouble keeping her head above water. They threw here a life ring but she was too weak to grab onto it. Officer Haugh began positioning the police boat down current from the woman as Officer Alexander began taking off his police gear to make a water rescue. The currents brought the woman up to the side of the boat before Officer Alexander had to make entry into the water and the two officers were able to grab her arms and pull her aboard. It is estimated the woman spent approximately an hour in the water before being pulled out.

The victim was blue and semi-conscious. Officer Alexander kept her awake and administered first aid while Officer Haugh brought the police boat to Eagle Point where other officers and EMTs were standing by. The victim was transported to Ocean Medical Center where she was treated for acute aspiration pneumonia and respiratory failure. She remains admitted at this time and is stable.

Chief Riccio would like to commend the officers involved for their quick response and preparedness.

Democrats Announce In Person Rally to Demonstrate Against In Person Election in Toms River

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

TOMS RIVER, NJ – Suddenly, everyone loves the post office, even the Democrats. That wasn’t the case when President Barack Obama mocked the post office for their constant financial woes.

“I mean, if you think about it, UPS and FedEx are doing just fine, right? No, they are,” Obama said way back in 2009 when he called the service outdated and antiquated. “It’s the post office that’s always having problems.”

Now, the woes of the post office are all Donald Trump’s fault.

“Donald Trump’s attacks and defunding of the postal system are a direct threat to the right to vote and the integrity of the election and even now are delaying Americans from getting the medicine and mail they need. We must act now to stop this attack and protect our election process,” the union said.

Join a “Save Our Mail! Save Our Vote!” event in front of a Post Office near you. Face masks and 6-foot Social Distancing Requirements will be strictly complied with at all events.

This event is sponsored by Our Revolution Ocean County and NJ State Industrial Union Council. It will take place on August 21st from 12-1 pm at the Toms River Post Office on Water Street. The event is being promoted by “Blue Wave”.

Mayor Amato Announces $1.25 Million Grant to Hire New Cops in Berkeley

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

BAYVILLE, NJ – Berkeley Mayor Carmen Amato and Police Chief Karin DiMichele are proud to announce that the Township of Berkeley was awarded funding from the United States Department of Justice through the Department’s Office of Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS Office) COPS Hiring Program (CHP). The Berkeley Police Department was awarded the grant totaling $1,250,000 which will allow the department to hire ten (10) new police officers.

“We have aggressively pursued this funding to help strengthen our police department without impacting local taxpayers. With upcoming retirements and a growing population, the 1.2 million in funding couldn’t come at a better time,” said Mayor Carmen Amato.

“The Department of Justice is committed to providing the police chiefs and sheriffs of our great nation with needed resources, tools, and support. The funding announced today will bolster their ranks and contribute to expanding community policing efforts nationwide,” said Attorney General William P. Barr. “A law enforcement agency’s most valuable assets are the men and women who put their lives on the line every day in the name of protecting and serving their communities.”

The COPS Hiring Program is a competitive award program intended to reduce crime and advance public safety through community policing by providing direct funding for the hiring of career law enforcement officers. In addition to providing financial support for hiring, CHP provides funding to state, local, and tribal law enforcement to enhance local community policing strategies and tactics. In a changing economic climate, CHP funding helps law enforcement agencies maintain sufficient sworn personnel levels to promote safe communities.

The substantial award secured through Berkeley’s longtime grant writing team at Bruno Associates, Inc. will offset the salary of the prospective new officers over a three-year period, with the Township fully absorbing costs starting on the fourth year. These new officers will specifically bolster the Berkeley Police Department’s community policing efforts and will also focus on combating effects of the Opioid Epidemic. The new officers are expected to be hired by the Township and integrated into BTPD over the next two years.

“The Council and I would like to thank Bruno Associates, Administrator John Camera, CFO Fred Ebenau and Lt. Ryan Roth for working together on the successful application. Chief DiMichele and I look forward to hiring these additional officers over the next two years.” Mayor Amato said.

Police Break Up Large Dinner Party in Lakewood Restaurant Violating Murphy’s Law

by Breaking Local News Report August 18, 2020

By: Breaking Local News Report

LAKEWOOD, NJ – If you’re in your 70’s you might remember it as the Continental, the River 978. Now it’s called Estreia Restaurant, located on Route 9 South in Lakewood. This week, the restaurant caught the eye of Governor Phil Murphy.

The restaurant is an upscale Kosher steakhouse that provides upscale Manhattan dining here at the Jersey Shore. It is owned by partners Itchie Rosenbaum and Shloimie Green.

“In Lakewood, the Estreia restaurant owner was cited for an executive order violation for having residents inside,” said New Jersey State Police Superintendent Patrick Callahan. Accounts of the party estimate an extremely large party with several hundred people.

One reporter at Monday’s press conference with Governor Phil Murphy claims Ocean County Sherrif’s Department officers waited until the party was finished before issuing citations.

“I just wanted to see if you were aware of that and can speak generally to how uniform enforcement of these executive order violations is across the state? Because you’re working with your troopers but also with local departments,” the reporter asked the governor.

“I’m not aware of that,” the Governor said.

“I believe that enforcement is very uniform. We do rely mostly on our local and county partners. But when those incidents are reported and police respond and see large gatherings, no social distancing, indoor dining, from all the reports that we get at the ROIC that those executive order violations are issued,” Callahan responded.

The worst part about this story is that New Jersey is still fining people for eating dinner, regardless of what town in New Jersey we’re talking about. While many in the area cheer places like the Lakeside in Forked River and the Atilis Gym, we’re sure this place will be condemned, because, you know.

Bereavement, Stress Management and Social Connections

Bereavement, Stress Management and Social Connections
FRA continues to provide personal connections for those with developmental or acquired disAbilities as the COVID-19 pandemic continues.

Red Bank, NJ – Where there is a need, there is always a way. Throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, Family Resource Associates (FRA) has strived to provide ways to keep those with developmental or acquired disAbilities connected to each other. Earlier this summer, after receiving feedback that there was a need for mental health support for its adult students, FRA launched a COVID-19 Bereavement and Stress Management Group. FRA adults initiated their own group in an effort to stay connected with friends. Having started as a monthly group gathering these adults are now connecting for fun and games via zoom.

The COVID-19 Bereavement and Stress Management Group is led by Sue Levine, MA, CSW, FRA Social Worker, and Alexis Spektor, M.Ed. The goal is to provide a safe space for adults to express feelings of loss and grief and to address the stressors of COVID-19 and the quarantine. “Attendees not only receive support from the group leaders, but also their peers,” said Levine. “It has been amazing to see the compassion and support extended peer to peer in the group.”

The COVID-19 group meets every other Thursday morning via Zoom. All adults enrolled in any of FRA’s programs are invited to join the group. “The group is very helpful,” said Dani Z. “I’ve been stressed so I’ve enjoyed everything we talk about and the strategies really help.”

In early 2019, Spektor and Joe Martinelli, an FRA Ambassador, started a social group based on a need for adults to learn how to take charge and connect with friends outside for social gatherings. “We were looking for a loose format similar to the way adults meet up and hang out in social settings,” said Martinelli. “We named the group Social Entrepreneurs because we were taking charge of our social life much like entrepreneurs take charge in business.”

The group initially met at local restaurants, bowling allies or the boardwalk. FRA employees often volunteered their time to help facilitate conversation and organically teach social skills. The group started to slow down in Late-2019 and took a hiatus when COVID-19 hit. “It was not until Alan Sniffen, an FRA teacher, became involved that the group was revived,” said Spektor. “Alan brought new life, ideas and structure to the group, via Zoom.”

Sniffen, together with Doug W. (an FRA student), Martinelli, and his Direct Support Professional, Manuel Solorzano, have transitioned the group to a virtual platform in Spring 2020. Spektor advises the group on an as-needed basis. “The group’s mission was to teach adults how to plan and organize social gatherings, and to practice social skills at group events,” said Sniffen. “Now, due to COVID 19, we had to transition to virtual meet ups on Zoom which has been an interesting way to learn how to communicate and have fun through this platform for the first time.”

Although the group’s future is fluid, “we know that there is a desire for personal connection and we need to find a way to help facilitate that,” said Sniffen. If you are interested in joining this social group, please look up Social Entrepreneurs on Facebook or request access by clicking here.
