Release Summary: OCEAN COUNTY PROSECUTOR’S OFFICE DEFENDS
POLICE MISCONDUCT -- Toms River, New Jersey
Press
Release Body: In a criminal case dating back to April, 2003, Morton
Schneider, a New Jersey businessman, will appear before
Judge Barbara A. Villano on March 31, 2008. Ocean County
Prosecutor’s Office will be represented by Thomas
Cannavo, who will be defending the police against charges
of corruption, perjury and robbery. Schneider will be represented
by Peter W. Till. The evidence confirming police
misconduct is overwhelming, according to Schneider. His documentation
includes evidence of perjury by police officers in testimony and
official documents, as well as a robbery of and planting of evidence
in the Schneider home. Ocean County prosecutors have ignored these
glaring transgressions by police in their attempts to cover up a
murder, Schneider asserts.
Schneider
and his son, Sean, were arrested following a raid on their home
in April, 2003, one month after Sean witnessed the murder of his
friend, Al Kushinski. In handcuffs at the time
of his murder, Kushinski was pushed to his death by a Toms River
police officer, who was assisting Lavallette police on an alleged
noise complaint.
The
official report on Kushinski’s death failed to mention the
presence of Toms River police at the scene. Exactly one month later
police, using a search warrant obtained through perjured statements
by Ocean County Prosecutor’s Investigator Sandra Rodriguez,
claimed to discover cocaine and steroids in the Schneider home.
While the police had sole control of the keys to the Schneiders’
home, the home was robbed of approximately $25,000 worth of cash
and jewelry. No investigation followed.
Schneider
and his wife, Barbara, a Toms River Township surgeon, have encountered
numerous procedural obstacles by the local courts in their quest
to expose these crimes.
“The
misconduct by police, prosecutors and the judiciary has been a nightmare,”
Morton Schneider said. “The crimes against us appear to
be business as usual in Toms River, New Jersey.”
The Schneiders have endured repeated acts of harassment by the police,
the judges and the township in their long and costly struggle to
bring the truth to light.
On
March 31, they will renew their attempts to seek justice.
“Toms
River’s ugly little secrets are finally going to be exposed,”
Morton Schneider said.
