THE \”ANIMAL\” HAS 200 TATTOS

 

TAMPA (August 1, 2013)— June was not a good month for Kenneth DiFranco, 56, once known to law enforcement as the Florida \”enforcer\” for the Pagan\’s Motorcycle Club.

He wrecked his truck on U.S. 19 in Hudson on June 17. He told troopers people wanted to kill him. He was also believed to be driving drunk. And he was on federal probation after a decade in prison for crimes that included being a felon with a gun.

So it wasn\’t helpful when troopers at the crash scene found a .380-caliber semiautomatic pistol and six rounds of ammunition poked into the Dodge Dakota\’s cup holder console.

DiFranco, whose aliases include \”Animal\” (as a given name) and \”Perez\” (as a family name), was on the leading edge of America\’s tattoo craze, with more than 200 as of December 2000, even before the ink dried on a federal prison sentence that ended in January 2012.

press release

WOODBURY NJ (August 2, 2013)– request to release a man charged with using a box-cutter to rob a woman in the parking lot of the Burlington Coat Factory store in Washington Township NJ on 7/13/13 was denied today (8/2) despite the defendant’s statement to police that he meant her no harm and \”was just hungry.\”

The case against Robert P. Sands Jr. (DOB 3/7/85), no known address, \”is significant,’ and he also faces 2011 sexual assault and receiving stolen property charges, Superior Court Judge Walter L. Marshall Jr. said in denying a request to release Sands on his own recognizance.

Sands lawyer Ron Appleby said his client returned from Florida and is \”very eager to deal with the new charges. Assistant Gloucester County Prosecutor Vincent Malfitano, objecting to any reduction in Sands’ $100,000 bail on robbery and weapons charges, said he robbed the victim by holding a box cutter to her stomach. When arrested, he told police, \”yeah, but I was just hungry. I wasn’t going to hurt her,\” and he apologized, Malfitano said.

TAXPAYERS FOR COMMON SENSE

22. That’s how many bills have become law since the 113^th Congress was sworn in on January 3, 2013. It’s one more illustration of dysfunction that has descended upon the Capitol.

One bill that became law was the continuing resolution that funded government through September 30 of this year. Of course, that was left over business from the 112^th Congress, considering the law went into effect half way through 2013 fiscal year. It’s looking like another continuing resolution is coming for fiscal year 2014 because the House has only passed four of the dozen required annual spending bills and the Senate hasn’t passed any. In fact, one day after House leadership yanked the Transportation-Housing and Urban Development spending bill from the floor, the Senate failed to overcome a key procedural hurdle (cloture or ending debate) on their version of the bill. The bill is aptly nicknamed \”THUD.\”

New Jersey’s economy is lagging behind the rest of the country. With over 400,000 New Jerseyans out of work, property taxes continuing to rise and middle class families struggling to make ends meet, there is much that needs to be done to restore New Jersey’s economy. Yet instead of focusing on New Jersey, Governor Christie spent yesterday in Las Vegas to \”kiss the ring\” of a conservative billionaire who wasted over $100 million in 2012 in failed attempt to defeat President Obama. It’s clear that Christie’s top concern is chasing cash and support in advance of his 2016 presidential campaign, not lifting up New Jersey families and workers.
