December 8, 2011 at 3:15 P.M. -- A-train at 175th Street platform: A bottle was thrown into a stopped subway train nearly striking and injuring (possibly severely) a woman sitting directly before me and spilling its contents on to the floor as well as other passangers. If this missile was intended for me -- as I think likely -- by New Jersey's "minions," then members of the public in New York are also being endangered and are not safe, Mr. Kelly. I hope such a state of affairs is unacceptable in this city. There are better ways to disagree with people, Mr. Menendez and the Cuban American National Foundation.

Erik Shilling, "Teacher Charged in Sex Sting On the Web," in The Record, November 23, 2011, at p. L-3.
"Bergen County authorities arrested an elementary school teacher [emphasis added] on Tuesday on charges of engaging in sexually explicit conversations over the Internet with someone he believed to be a 14 year-old child." ("New Jersey Superior Court Judge is a Child Molester" and "Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" then "Neil M. Cohen, Esq. and Conduct Unbecoming to the Legislature in New Jersey.")
The problem of child sexual abuse is worse in New Jersey than in most -- possibly, all -- other states. This is true not only in Atlantic City, which may lead the nation in the production of child porn, allegedly, but throughout the Garden State -- including Elizabeth, New Jersey.
It must be said that this problem of child abuse is not caused by the Italian mafia, which is smart enough to stay away from these matters, but the pervasiveness of the problem is often due to Cuban-American organized crime. ("New Jersey's Child Sex Industry" and "Is Senator Menendez For Sale?" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks.")
"Andrew Brown, 38, of South Plainfield also allegedly exposed himself on a webcam to the 'child,' who was actually an undercover investigator, Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli said in a statement. Brown is a SECOND GRADE [emphasis added] teacher at Woodruck Elementary School in Edison."
"Brown was charged with two counts each of attempting to endanger the welfare of a minor and attempted criminal sexual contact, Molinelli said. He was being held Tuesday on $25,000 bond at the Bergen County jail in Hackensack." ("Another Child Molesting New Jersey School Teacher" and "New Jersey is the Home of Child Molesters.")
I am not going to second-guess bail decisions because there is a presumption of innocence entitling a defendant to bail, especially when there are no prior convictions and plenty of so-called "ties to the community." 10% is usually sufficient to get out of jail on a bond option. If this is correct, then Mr. Brown could hit the streets on a posting of $2,500 cash with the use of a bail bondsman.
In my opinion -- unless there are facts that I am not aware of based on this news account -- this is an insane outcome given the gravity of these charges. Bail should be set at $100,000 cash, no bond.
The child sex "industry" generates millions of dollars in New Jersey and Florida that pays for political protection. There is no other explanation possible for the continuation and thriving of this loathsome "business" and activity in New Jersey. Plenty of women in the sex trade are victimized by the same monsters hurting children and purchasing get-out-of-jail-free cards from corrupt politicians. ("Abuse and Exploitation of Women in New Jersey" and "More Child Abuse in New Jersey" then "Cubanazos Pose a Threat to National Security!")
Drastic action to control the cesspool of corruption that is New Jersey is needed from the federal government. Mr. Holder, please take the necessary actions to bring some semblance of legality and order or decency to what is clearly a failed jurisdiction. New York is "successful" in controlling such horrors; New Jersey continues to fail in these efforts. ("Law and Ethics in the Soprano State" and "Corrupt Law Firms, Senator Bob, and New Jersey Ethics.")
A list of sources detailing many further recent examples of corruption, ineptitude, and unethical conduct in New Jersey's legal profession as well as the state's soiled courts and politics will be attached to this essay in the days ahead.
