(September 22, 2015)–For New Jersey taxpayers, the bad news is even worse than a report showing their state government is $160 billion in debt.

The deficit is actually $10 billion higher than that — a whopping $170 billion — according to State Treasury records obtained by New Jersey Watchdog.

In a national study released Monday, Truth in Accounting, a nonprofit advocate of governmental transparency, calculated that state governments have racked up $1.3 trillion in debt.

The report ranked New Jersey dead last among states with a burden of $52,300 per taxpayer, the highest in the country.

 

Thomas W. Kavula was born in Bayonne, New Jersey, on November 4, 1941. A high school graduate, he attended St. Peter\’s College in Jersey City for one year before joining the New Jersey State Police.

Not wishing to follow in his father\’s restaurant business, Trooper Kavula played minor league baseball and was given a tryout by the Cincinnati Reds. He decided to abandon a possible baseball career and become a New Jersey State Trooper.

Trooper Kavula enlisted in the New Jersey State Police on June 10, 1963, as a member of the 61st Class. Upon graduation, he was assigned to Troop \”B\” and later to Troop \”D\” Newark Station. Trooper Kavula\’s service with the Division was characterized by loyalty, fearless performance of duty, and faithful and honorable devotion to the principles of the New Jersey State Police.

Trooper Kavula died from injuries received as a result of being struck by a motor vehicle while performing his duties of directing traffic on the New Jersey Turnpike.

Fatima Aviles (DOB 11/20/87), of Philadelphia, convicted of burglary and theft of more than $35,000 in cell phones from two Verizon stores in Glassboro and Washington Township NJ in July and August 2013, was sentenced today (9/18) to three years on New Jersey state prison.

Aviles’ lawyer argued for a probation sentence and Aviles pleaded tearfully for leniency, saying jail \”would not be fair. I have my whole life ahead of me\” including marriage plans, she said.

You likely recall how Save Jersey readers were ecstatic when Governor Christie pardoned Shaneen Allen back in April.

And with good reason. This hard-working, down-to-earth mother of two – Niaire, age 11, and Sincere, age 4 – was minding her own business, pushing through an early morning New Jersey drive to Atlantic City back in October 2013 with Sincere’s father, Desmond Boyd, when she was stopped in Hamilton Township after allegedly making an unsafe lane change. They were heading down on a rare day off from work to decorate a hotel room for the girl’s upcoming seashore birthday party.

Around 5’2\” and maybe 120 pounds soaking wet, she dutifully informed the police officer that she had a gun in the car; this Philadelphia resident never contemplated that her Pennsylvania concealed carry permit, obtained to protect her family from the realities of a troubled neighborhood, wouldn’t do her any good on this side of the Delaware River. This is still America, right?  What happened next could’ve fooled the causal observer. Shaneen, who’s only 28-years-old and accustomed to working multiple jobs to support her family, was subsequently arrested, detained for forty-eight hours, and subjected to a two year-long ordeal that was complicated by the Atlantic County’s Prosecutor’s nearly-contemporaneous decision to let NFL domestic violence perpetrator Ray Rice into the pretrial intervention program (PTI), a one year class which will allow Rice to avoid jail time and have all charges dismissed, but NOT Shaneen. At one point, a bogus fugitive warrant issued for her arrest, executed by officers as she drove out of the parking lot of a bar where she had applied for job.
