OCPO and the Police Officers who put your life on the line…..Thank you for your determination to get these people off the streets. Keep up the good work.
Don’t thank the Ocean County Prosecutor.. Bradley has signed on with the Attorney General to prevent law enforcement from questioning illegal immigrants without being related to a crime… Unfortunately the OCPO isn’t following through with his oath to protect and serve….
