Another Attack on Free Speech...

The commies running the teacher unions and most government schools can be as crazy and offensive as they like while at work and there is no consequence. However, conservative school leaders are cancelled for things said on their personal pages. What country do we live in?

Superior Court Judge Christine Farrington Should Be Charged With Official Misconduct and Disbarred...
This is a corrupt judge making the right look wrong and the wrong look right.
She is allowing a mayor to vote to hire his own son. That is public corruption. You can't have a worse conflict of interest.
Then this "judge" has the audacity to allege misconduct by some council members because they oppose blatant nepotism.
Normal people with common sense can see what this "judge" has been doing. She is a disgrace and unfit to serve. She is weaponizing her court for politics.
Anyone reading this article (no matter your political affiliation) should be outraged.
There is no justice when "judges" abuse their power in this manner.
Bergen County Superior Court Judges are just politicians in robes. They can be just as corrupt as the politicians that appoint them.

Subject: OPRA Request
Attached is my OPRA request. Legal invoices are not exempt under OPRA. After I began drawing attention to problems with Giacobbe's bills, the firm began redacting its invoices to the extent that they are unreadable (basically making the claim that all invoices are exempt). It is is in Giacobbe's self-interest to conceal all of its billing from the public. However, it is against the public's interest and it is in clear violation of the Open Public Records Act. The district is now redacting items from the invoices that have always been made available to Lodi in the past. I have secured legal invoices made available to the public that had been requested via OPRA from other school districts. None are redacted to the extent that Lodi is now allowing Giacobbe to redact. In fact, firms representing New Jersey school districts are drawing up their invoices with the anticipation that they may be requested via OPRA. It is even more concerning that Giacobbe is making its legal invoices unreadable at a time when it is going well over budget.
The public has recently been made aware that Marc Wenzcel is representing board trustee Sharon Salvacion in an ethics case. This arrangement is different from Lodi's past practices in which the board went through its insurance provider and had a $5,000 deductible. The public has the right to see how much the Lodi taxpayers are paying to have Mark Wenzcel represent Sharon Salvacion. The public also has a right to see what other board members have been contacting Giacobbe, running up bills, and what reasons are given.
When a firm is paid with public funds, there are limits on what they can conceal from the public. Everything on legal invoices cannot be claimed exempt in the name of attorney-client privilege.
It is in Giacobbe's self-interest to invite an OPRA attorney to sue Lodi for withholding public records from the public because that would give Giacobbe another opportunity to drive up legal costs on the Lodi taxpayers. The superintendent, business administrator, and board members should keep that in mind.
