Hoboken Mayor, Peter Cammarano, Pleads Guilty.
April 21, 2010 at 7:00 P.M. A teach-in tour on the historic link between the death penalty and lynching in the United States was held today. Among the speakers were persons freed from death row, as well as activists and scholars discussing the role of racism in our criminal justice system, also why the death penalty and unjust sentencing need to be abolished.

Richard Perez-Pena, "Former Mayor of Hoboken Pleads Guilty to Corruption," in The New York Times, April 21, 2010, at p. A22. (No accents available on this computer.)
"He was not the one accused of human organ trafficking, nor the money-laundering rabbi. No, in the sprawling corruption sting that shook New Jersey last year" -- which one? -- "what marked Peter J. Cammarano III, then the mayor of Hoboken, was the spectacle of a promising career blown apart almost before it started."
Hoboken is still Gambino territory, I believe. Jersey City and north Hudson is divided betwen several families and factions. ("North Bergen is the Home of La Cosa Nostra.")
"His downfall became complete on Tuesday, in Federal District Court in Newark, where Mr. Cammarano, 32, pleaded guilty to accepting illegal campaign contributions in return for aiding proposed development projects. The youngest mayor in the city's history, he served 23 days in that office last year before being arrested and charged, and eight more before resigning. He now faces a probable sentence of 24 to 30 months in prison."
I am not surprised at these developments. However, I did have a chuckle when I read the name of the federal judge before whom this defendant appeared and pleaded guilty. I am saving a profile of this person for a future date. You will not believe it.
You guys in Trenton must still be disappointed that you failed to get me to commit a crime and had to go through the OAE charade. I am sure that you have destroyed many lives with your behind-the-back tactics, probably for a small fee. ("What is it like to be tortured?" and "Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture.")
" ... A lawyer who ran on a platform of fiscal responsibility, Mr. Cammarano was once called a rising star in the Democratic Party. But he turned out to be just one in a distressingly long list of government officials whose allegiances and official favors were for sale. (A predecessor as mayor, Anthony Russo, ["Whatta-ya need?"] pleaded guilty in a corruption case in 2004.)"
Hoboken town hall attached price tags to all city and judicial services. The town police department features the services of Lieutenant Andriani, allegedly of the KKK. ("New Jersey's KKK Police Shocker.")
"Last summer, the United States attorney's office in Newark unveiled what officials called the biggest corruption sweep in the state's history, charging 44 people across multiple counties, including three mayors, two state lawmakers, a deputy mayor of Jersey City, assorted other government officials and political operatives and a group of rabbis. Mr. Cammarano, one of the most prominent defendants, was the 17th to plead guilty; one other, Leona Beldini, the former Jersey City deputy mayor, was convicted at trial."
Over 200 New Jersey officials during the past five to ten years have been indicted and convicted for corruption. This amounts, in my opinion, to less than 10% of the problem.
"The breadth of the case and its baroque details make it a staple of late-night television comedy shows, piling on New Jersey's well-established reputation for official vice. Christopher J. Christie, a former prosecutor, exploited the sting in his successful campaign for governor last year."
Mr. Rabner, there is no point in continuing this cover-up. The records of the tortures to which I have been subjected and censorship making use of New Jersey government technology and resources, rapes, thefts, political manipulations of the Office of Attorney Ethics (OAE), complicity by that agency in atrocity and likely participation by OAE attorneys in thefts as well as cover-ups -- all of this and much more will only add yet another page to the history of New Jersey's villanies and disgusting criminality as well as hypocrisy. No one will be surprised. Sickened, maybe. But not surprised.
Stuart, you can not protect Debbie Poritz, Anne Milgram, or any other members of the lesbian brigades. I doubt that Marilyn can identify any women who may have sexually violated her while she was under hypnosis. Any female members of the judiciary who are into the "carpet-munching" are probably safe. Why not turn over the torture files today? ("An Open Letter to My Torturers in New Jersey, Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli.")
With the disclosure (to me) of this personal information and turning over of tapes and statements that explain many of the sordid details of government abuse in my life, many persons would find peace and much of the suffering created by this evil may still be alleviated. Continued stonewalling and lies, denials or obfuscations will only enhance the suffering and pain of many persons foolish or naive enough to have cooperated with the loathsome Terry Tuchin and Diana Lisa Riccioli in their criminal conspiracies. ("Law and Ethics in the Soprano State" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.")
Each day that the cover-up continues is a further disgracing of yourself, Mr. Rabner, your befouled tribunal and the soiled New Jersey judiciary. Also perpetuating the cover-up increases the burden of pain felt by guilty informers, spies, dirty lawyers and others who made the mistake of getting into bed with New Jersey's Attorney General, OAE, Tuchin and Riccioli, only to be left out in the cold to eat this for you "in perpetuity." You are leaving those people to twist in the wind, huh? You're quite a guy, Stuart.
"Mr. Cammarano appeared before Judge Jose L. Linares in a blue striped suit and pleaded guilty to one count of 'conspiracy to commit extortion under color of official right,' then left the courthouse without speaking to reporters. He admitted that he took $25,000 in illicit campaign contributions in return for promises to help a developer, who was actually working for the Federal Bureau of Investigation." ("Does Senator Menendez Have Mafia Friends?" and "Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks.")
"Mr. Cammarano remains free pending sentencing on August 3."
" ... The common thread in last year's corruption sweep was Solomon Dwek, a one-time real estate developer who was, himself, caught in illegal financial dealings, and became a cooperating witness. He offered bundles of cash in return for support for fictitious projects, and apparently had no trouble finding takers. Some took illegal campaign contributions, others pocketed the money, prosecutors say."
"The case snared ... several rabbis [they'll probably walk since it is likely many were duped themselves] accused of running a money-laundering ring and a man accused of trying to arrange the illegal sale of a human kidney." ("Jaynee La Vecchia and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
Stuart Rabner wants to purchase a used conscience on the black market because Stuart lost his own conscience somewhere on the way to his judgeship. ("Stuart Rabner and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")
Benjamin Wieser, "Charges Called 'New Low' for Gambinos," in The New York Times, April 21, 2010, at p. A21.
Gambino soldiers were arrested, again, as part of a continuing investigation in New Jersey and New York. Allegations are that the Gambinos have become involved in transporting minors and young adult women for purposes of prostitution, probably with the cooperation of officials in New Jersey. ("Judges Protect Child Molesters in Bayonne, New Jersey" and "We don't know from nothing.")
"Some of the charges anounced Monday -- extortion, gambling, loan sharking, marijuana and cocaine traffiking -- seem routine, almost boilerplate in mob cases. There was even an attempted jury tampering charge" -- like unilaterally altering the transcript of a "secret" recording or of a hearing, right John? How are things at the OAE? -- "related to the 1992 trial of John J. Gotti, the family's boss at the time."
"But in what Mr. Bharara said appears to be a first in a case involving the Mafia, some defendants were charged with operating an interstate sex-trafficking network, in which they recruited women to work as prostitutes in New York and New Jersey."
This is routine organized crime activity in New Jersey. In the past, such activities have been protected by corrupt politicians. ("Is Senator Menendez a Suspect in Mafia-Political Murder in New Jersey?" and "New Jersey is the Home of Child Molesters.")
" ... The defendants advertised on the Internet, set up and drove the women to appointments, and kept about half of the collected fees, ..."
" ... the women used as prostitutes were all under 20 years-old, one was 15." ("More Child-Prostitution and -Porn in New Jersey" and "Judges Protect Child-Molesters in Bayonne, New Jersey.")
Who wishes to judge that fifteen year-old young woman forced into prostitution? I don't. Would the ethical disapproval of persons making such evil possible trouble you? It does not trouble me to be "disliked" by such persons in New Jersey. ("What is it like to be tortured?" and "America's Holocaust.")
