If you do your research before you run your mouth you will understand why that is true.<BR/>Economics 101 = if you live in big daddy's house you will obey big daddy! They also have to show financial stability. Losing half their customer base and ransacking the place is not showing financial stability. When they agreed to the license they agreed to the terms. They were given preferential treatment by gromley and the crda. They took the money and sold the joint to some slimey operator ftom KY. Too bad for them huh!!vtpathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15144165182667587069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3301528102985666074.post-9146570522927893702008-08-19T07:23:00.000-07:002008-08-19T07:23:00.000-07:00I agree with your sentiment. Roger Gros of Casino ...I agree with your sentiment. Roger Gros of Casino Connection has similar reservations about the Badar Field rush. He writes,<BR/><BR/>"Now, I’ve been on record on this blog and in the editorial pages of our Casino Connection magazine in Atlantic City, of being critical of the rush public officials seem to be in when considering Bader Field. I’ve wondered repeatedly why there is such a rush, given several facts:<BR/><BR/>• There are significant other pieces of casino-zoned land—even along the Boardwalk—that have yet to be developed. These empty plots of land in the center of town contribute to Atlantic City’s image of “slums surrounded by casino palaces,” so developing this land should be a priority of any city government before Bader Field."<BR/><BR/>(http://blog.casinoconnection.com/?p=109)Jesse O.

The allegations contained in the sealed court records may never have been proven in a court of law. Nonetheless, based on my experience as a criminal defense attorney, I would be very surprised if these officers agreed to suspensions for months with no pay if there were no truth to the allegations. What I cannot understand is why the district attorney has not investigated the matter and issued a report either exonerating the officers or charging them. The officers have an opportunity to protest their innocence here if they wish. As to why the girl was not arrested, she allegedly was in the company of the two officers while she was drinking and received the prescription drugs from the officers who were themselves obligated to arrest her for any criminal conduct in which she engaged.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3301528102985666074.post-75333907156734458732008-08-07T11:14:00.000-07:002008-08-07T11:14:00.000-07:00Just curious if this is a case you happened to com...Just curious if this is a case you happened to come upon or if you know about it personally. I personally know one of the officers in question and also know that the allegations are not true. AC is full of politics and while some are spouting those so call politics as why they "got off" it's actually quite the other way around. The article that was published is based on sealed docs that were leaked as facts...but really only include the allegations...none of which were proven. Even "facts" about their "punishments" aren't true. This lawsuit was initated by the girl's parents...but the real question to me is..how come she is in no trouble for underage drinking and taking prescription drugs that weren't prescribed to her and she obviously did get them somewhere.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3301528102985666074.post-108498692062497562008-08-01T06:09:00.000-07:002008-08-01T06:09:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.G-Funkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12749259738328082276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3301528102985666074.post-44757878341537642682008-07-31T11:33:00.000-07:002008-07-31T11:33:00.000-07:00I may not have used the technical term which is us...I may not have used the technical term which is used in the NJ statutes, but providing alcoholic beverages is in fact a crime in NJ. Furthermore, it is a crime for anyone under age to drink alcohol and if the officers witnessed that conduct, they had a duty to arrest the teen - even if they didn't provide her with the alcohol in the first place. <BR/><BR/>Misuse of city property is also a crime (again, my terminology may not track NJ statutes which seem to use the term "Official Misconduct"). For example, it is illegal for a city employee to use city property for their own personal benefit. In this case, the police allegedly used the cop car to pick up a girl.
