Ridgewood NJ, former Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli joined Price, Meese, Shulman and D’Arminio, which is headquartered in Woodcliff Lake and has offices in White Plains, N.Y.. in November when he was unceremoniously pushed out by the Christie administration after a series of high-profile case losses.
To many Ridgewood residents the name Price, Meese, Shulman and D’Arminio rings a bell .Price, Meese, Shulman and D’Arminio is the firm of former Ridgewood planning board attorney Gail Price.
Interesting that Mollineli now works for Gail Price. He’s also the guy that cut a deal with the Ridgewood quarter thief, Ricca.
Rica, a Hawthorne resident, will pay back just under $250,000 of the $460,000 he admitted stole under a plea agreement.
Thomas Rica known in the Village of Ridgewood as ‘coin boy” or the “meter thief” was convicted and sentenced for stealing nearly 2 million quarters from the Ridgewood parking system.
Initially, Rica paid a $64,337.55 down payment, to be followed by $2,000 a month in monthly payments over the five years he will serve probation. Ricca also agreed to forfeit his $30,000 pension as part of the plea deal and $4,000 Ridgewood seized from his home. Shockingly Rica received no jail time .
Mollineli the Bergen County prosecutor at the time was later forced out of office .
The Ridgewood blog had heard that she did not submit a proposal in response to the RFQ and that she personally hasn’t attended a Planning Board meeting since her husband declared his candidacy for Village Council. At that time we had no resignation per se but it did appear that she’s done.
