Not One Article about "AJ's" Mentions Any Change in Ownership Between all the Prostitution/Cocaine Busts in Recent Years. Lodi Deputy Mayor/Planning Board Member, Vinny Martin, Should Be Forced to Disclose Any Current Involvement with the Prostitution/Cocaine Business.


Secaucus Chief Calls for Closure of AJ's Go-Go Bar (hudsonreporter.com)


While Vinny Martin was filing to run for Re-election in May 2023, multiple people told me that Vinny Martin was telling them that he was trying to get his name off of the prostitution/cocaine business.  Not one recent news article mentions any change in ownership from the 2021 bust, 2022 bust, and 2024 bust.  I cannot locate any public notices showing the liquor license being transferred from Vinny Martin to a different party.

What is the truth?  Vinny Martin is public official and must answer to the public.  Why hasn't he had to answer to one reporter beginning with the 2021 bust?  

Vinny Martin is raising Lodi taxes.  Vinny Martin is approving overdevelopment as a Planning Board member.  Vinny Martin is executing and signing Lodi contracts when Scott Luna has conflicts of interest.  Vinny Martin is voting on ordinances.  Vinny Martin is voting on Donald Scorzetti's contracts.

Lodi residents have the right to know if the person governing them is still involved with prostitution/cocaine sales.
