N.J.'s Joseph Spicuzzo Charged With Bribery.

March 10, 2011 at 9:40 A.M. The signal to my computer was blocked this morning. I was forced to reboot my computer. It has taken me some time to reach the blogs today. I cannot say how many writings have been altered or vandalized. I will try to make all corrections in a timely fashion.

Please compare "America's Love of Violence" with Maureen Dowd, "Sexy Ruses to Stop Forgetting to Remember," in The New York Times, March 9, 2011, at p. A27. Have I been an unacknowledged source of ideas, Ms. Dowd? Has Ms. Dowd visited my sites at any time? ("What is it like to be plagiarized?" and "'Brideshead Revisited': A Movie Review.")

March 9, 2011 at 11:07 A.M. Numerous defacements and alterations of copyright- and Constitutionally-protected writings at these blogs continue to go unpunished. I cannot say how many texts have been damaged overnight. I will continue to struggle to make all necessary corrections as quickly as possible. ("More Censorship and Cybercrime" and "Censorship and Cruelty in New Jersey.")

Adam Liptak, "No Crime, But an Arrest and Two Strip Searches," in The New York Times, March 8, 2011, at p. A17.

New Jersey is a place of absurd, infuriating, and evil contrasts. "Criminal" is defined by most police officers, especially in the southern portion of the state, to mean something done -- or that you claim was done -- by an African-American or Latino, or other vulnerable person, usually a woman. Many women are subjected to what can only be described as sexual assaults for driving on the Turnpike while being sexually attractive to men. ("Abuse and Exploitation of Women in New Jersey" and "Trenton's Nasty Lesbian Love-Fest!")

Racism, corruption, double standards in the legal system are combined with sacharine hypocrisy and pompousness in public statements from the few officials who have, somehow, avoided indictments. Jim McGreevey, the state's disgraced former governor, being a case in point. ("Da Jersey Code" and "Cement is Gold.")

One purpose of the usual public disinformation campaign following daily N.J. corruption scandals is to distract residents from the reality of Garden State mafia judges, prosecutors, police and the complicity of the legal profession in this horror of failed government. ("New Jersey's Larry Peterson Cleared by DNA.")

A lot of people in New Jersey who should care about the disaster that is the state's legal and political system have simply given up -- mostly because they think it is hopeless to try to improve things in that place. If you accept this kind of thinking, the bad guys and gals win. Worse, this is how we die, spiritually, when we accept injustice, cruelty, misery and despair in our lives or those of others as "just the way it is." We must never stop struggling to make our world better.

"Alfred W. Florence believes that black men who drive nice cars in New Jersey run a risk of being questioned by the police. For that reason, he kept handy a 2003 document showing he had paid a court-imposed fine stemming from a traffic offense, just in case." (emphasis added!)

"It did not seem to help."

"In March 2005, Mr. Florence was in the passenger seat of his BMW when a state trooper pulled it over for speeding. His wife, April, was driving. His 4-year-old son, Shamar, was in the back." There was no probable cause to run a check of the passenger in the vehicle who committed no alleged visible infraction nor of the child sitting in the rear of car who should have been permitted to leave the area with a responsible adult.

The harm that may be done to children exposed to such treatment of a parent -- treatment that children know to be unjust -- may be life-long and irreversible. This article is silent concerning the registration of the vehicle. A summons for speeding may be issued only to the driver (presumably, the registered owner of the BMW), there was no allegation that the passenger had any control of the car at any time or was ever the "owner" of the vehicle listed in the registration documents or insurance card -- even if the car was "his," whatever that means.

I do not believe that a warrant was issued in error against Mr. Florence. Mr. Florence was in possession of proof of having made the necessary payment which, given today's computer records, should have prevented the issuance of ANY warrant for non-payment. Even if such a warrant were issued, erroneously, the payment's entry into the system would (or should) preclude the warrant from remaining in effect.

At the time of entry of the revised information in court computers, such a warrant must be vacated. The data-entry "error" alone is incompetence or negligence -- maybe, worse -- on the part of police or court personnel for which they are liable.

The warrant in this matter was probably entered in the records of the case, after the fact, to provide ass-cover for the cops and officials who detained this man, strip-searched, then further humiliated and dehumanized him as a form of enslavement for presuming to achieve financial success or earning more money than the cops involved in the incident.

Being smarter than Mr. Sweeney -- something which is unavoidable for me -- may also be a criminal offense in the Garden State whereas it is only normal everywhere else. New Jersey has a long history of KKK recruitment in police departments. ("New Jersey's KKK Police Scandal" and "Organized Crime Group in New Jersey's State Police.")

This arrest may have been a sexual act for the cop involved. The vandalism of my sites is certainly a form of sexual sadism. It was certainly a racist action and the cover-up which has followed the original event is even more racist and far less excusable. In New Jersey this is all "business as usual."

I have experienced much worse from New Jersey officials for nearly twenty-two years and the cover-up in my matter is still under way. Each day that the cover-up continues -- or that new censorship or other crimes are committed against me -- is a renewal of twenty-one years of torture and rape. ("Terry Tuchin, Diana Lisa Riccioli, and New Jersey's Agency of Torture" and "What is it like to be tortured?")

I am sure that the courts in New Jersey are aware of what happened in these matters. Judges will protect crooked cops and cover-up what transpired. The system protects bad prosecutors and cops, mafia politicos and screws those who do not play ball with the bosses. ("New Jersey's Feces-Covered Supreme Court.")

Mr. Florence was insulted and dehumanized in a manner that may have harmed his child, for life, to the indifference of appellate courts which have (so far) deemed everything to be hunky-dory in this case. Rather than doing the right thing, so-called "ethical" lawyers in Burlington County hoping to "win" their case are stalling and obstructing what everyone knows should happen in this matter.

Please send a message to the powers that be in New Jersey. Make sure that proven corruption and obstruction of justice is penalized, severely -- especially when it comes from OAE officials and prosecutors or judges. ("New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.")

New Jersey's legal system is unworthy of respect because it is a sickening example of racism and mafia control of courts that undermines the law. This is only one incident among many thousands like it all over New Jersey. ("Driving While Black [DWB] in New Jersey.")

If it is true that these writings are earning international attention, then I am very pleased to underscore not only censorship and computer crime in response to my criticisms, but the obvious and pervasive racism and bias that defines criminal justice in America. ("Mumia Abu-Jamal and the Unconstitutionality of the Death Penalty in America" and "Freedom for Mumia Abu-Jamal.")

" ... Mr. Florence was nonetheless held for eight days in two counties on a charge of CIVIL contempt" -- even as he showed proof of having made the necessary payment which the computer system must have shown to invalidate any warrant! -- "before matters were sorted out." (emphasis added!)

Drug dealers, violent criminals, and other truly vicious offenders were brought before a judge and released within 24 hours, in my experience, on the basis of making prompt phone calls to the emergency judge on duty and the desk officer at the jail in the county "lock-up." This information concerning who to call in order to get bail should have been provided to the defendant-plaintiff's (Mr. Florence's) loved one at the scene by a responsible police officer. ("America's Holocaust" and "Driving While Black [DWB] in New Jersey.")

New Jersey is a place where bosses control the mechanisms of government and judges. Racism and corruption are taken for granted as "business as usual" obscuring the real crimes in the Garden State -- and in America, in my opinion -- crimes which are committed most often by people of all ethnicities who are smart enough to avoid being African-Americans.

Criminals who go to prison in America, for the most part, are called African-Americans. Criminals who do not go to prison are called: "something other than African-Americans."

Barack Obama's presidency is not going to make racism disappear until we take responsibility for ending the corruption and incompetence that is symptomatic of the daily operations of the criminal justice system. ("Havana Nights and C.I.A. Tapes" and "Foucault, Rose, Davis and the Meanings of Prison.")

Sexism is roughly on the same level as racism in terms of pervasiness in interactions with police in America's urban centers -- especially in "nowhere," New Jersey. Women may be arrested because a cop finds them attractive. Prostitutes are routinely harassed, robbed, or made to perform sexual acts to avoid imprisonment. Here's the real crime committed in New Jersey, every day:

John Brennan, "Ex-Middlesex Sheriff Charged With Bribery: Served on Sports Authority," in The Record, March 8, 2011, at p. A-3.

"Joseph Spicuzzo, a controversial appointee to the New Jersey Sports Authority Board in 2009, was arrested Monday morning and charged with bribery."

This is the man representing good sportsmanship and "ethics" in New Jersey athletics? I doubt it. ("New Jersey's Office of Attorney Ethics" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System.")

"Joseph Spicuzzo, 65, stepped down from his post as Chairman of the Middlesex County [McGreevey's man!] Democratic Organization last Monday. He is accused of accepting bribes of more than $50,000 in 2007 and 2008 related to hiring new investigators and handing out promotions. He is alleged to have demanded that young recruits seeking a career in law enforcement [wow!] pay him up to $25,000 apiece." ("Deborah T. Poritz and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey" and "Jennifer Velez is a 'Dyke Magnet!'")

Most municipalities in New Jersey have a system of "pay-to-get-the-job" in place. Furthermore, there is an additional "keep-paying-to-retain-employment" system that kicks-in after you get the job. You are also responsible for getting the vote out to support the local Democrat-mafia or you will lose your job. ("Senator Bob, the Babe, and the Big Bucks" and "Christopher Christie on New Jersey's Culture of Corruption.")

I wonder whether Mr. McGreevey or his Israeli sailor friend have visited my sites? ("How censorship works in America" and "What is it like to be censored in America?")

Mr. Spicuzzo was not strip-searched. He received bail and release immediately. Mr. Spicuzzo favors the "Meadowlands Xanadu mall project." He is a "good buddy" of Senators Steven Sweeney and Bob Menendez, also "Shyster Ray" Lesniak and Richard J. Codey -- all of these distinguished gentlemen are highly ethical members of the New Jersey Bar Association which has stated, through a spokesperson from Middlesex County: "We don't know nothing about nothing."

Alleged affiliations by Mr. Spicuzzo to the Genovese crime family are denied, I am sure. It is impossible to say whether this "gentleman" was "sharing" with Stuart Rabner or others in the judiciary. Judges taking money to decide cases would not surprise me in America's "Soprano State." ("More Bribed Judges in Jersey City, New Jersey.")

Additional arrests are expected in Hudson, Bergen, Essex and Middlesex Counties very soon. Several more incidents involving police or governmental overreaching will be discussed in these blogs in the days and weeks ahead.

Is it true that OAE lawyers are being arrested and/or disbarred, John McGill? ("Law and Ethics in the Soprano State" and "New Jersey's 'Ethical' Legal System" then "Jaynee LaVecchia and Conduct Unbecoming to the Judiciary in New Jersey.")

It appears that, along with Bergen County's "Godfather" Joe Ferreiro, Senator Joe Coniglio -- convicted of extortion -- may be leaving prison thanks to a recent appeal:

Peter J. Sampson, "Court Tosses 5 Out of 6 Counts for Ex-Senator: Coniglio to be Sentenced," in The Record, March 9, 2011, at p. A-1. (Rumors are that Joe Coniglio provided much of Diana's legal protection, possibly for a small fee or as a favor for his godfather.)
