Hackensack NJ, On Wednesday September 28, 2022, Hackensack Police Officer Aaron Rios and Police Officer Stanislav Tovbin responded to a home on Railroad Avenue Hackensack, on a report of a dispute. Upon their arrival the officers heard arguing coming from the home. Upon their approach of the residence the female victim exited in a frantic manner. She reported that the defendant attempted to strangle her for a short period of time, and bit her lip. He also refused to let her leave the home. During the course of their investigation the officers observed the defendant exit the rear of the residence. The officers shouted verbal commands at the arrestee, but he did not comply and fled through the rear yard. Officers relayed the information via radio and multiple Hackensack Police Department Personnel responded to the area. A perimeter was established and search ensued. During this time the victim notified responding officers that the arrestee was in possession of a knife. After a brief foot pursuit the arrestee was ultimately located in the rear yard of a home on Park Street and was arrested without incident. The knife was also recovered. Hackensack Middle School was briefly placed on lockdown during the incident. The defendant, Jean Paul Rubio, 19, of Budd Lake NJ, was charged with aggravated assault, criminal restraint, resisting arrest, obstruction, and weapons charges. He was transported to New Bridge Hospital and will later be turned over to the Bergen County Jail.
There are many reasons why someone would need to hire a family lawyer. For example, if you are going through divorce proceedings, you will likely need legal counsel for your family law needs. You may also want to speak with a family lawyer before signing any agreements related to the custody of your children or other family members. Hiring an experienced family lawyer can help make these difficult decisions much easier!
When people think about domestic abuse, the picture that typically comes to mind is a man beating up a woman. While this form of domestic abuse is quite common, it is far from the only domestic violence that occurs. Men beat women, men beat men, women beat women, women beat men. Male victims of domestic abuse are less likely to come forward, though, for many reasons, the main one being that they are often not believed.

ICE deportation officers conduct targeted enforcement operations every day in locations around the country as part of the agency’s ongoing efforts to protect the nation, uphold public safety and protect the integrity of our immigration laws and border controls.
During targeted enforcement operations, ICE officers frequently encounter additional suspects who may be in the United States in violation of federal immigration laws. Those persons will be evaluated on a case by case basis and, when appropriate, arrested by ICE.
ICE continues to focus its enforcement resources on individuals who pose a threat to national security, public safety and border security. ICE conducts targeted immigration enforcement in compliance with federal law and agency policy. However, as ICE Director Thomas Homan has made clear, ICE does not exempt classes or categories of removable aliens from potential enforcement. All of those in violation of the immigration laws may be subject to immigration arrest, detention and, if found removable by final order, removal from the United States.
Hackensack NJ, 5th District Republican candidate Steve Lonegan called Democrat gubernatorial nominee Phil Murphy a “coward” on gun-control and labeled his party “cowards” for following Murphy. Lonegan’s words were in response to Murphy’s statements as reported in the New York Times and the Observer yesterday.
According to Observer reporter Christian Hetrick (August 24, 2017), Murphy said that he wants to a create a regional body made up of New Jersey and neighboring states to oversee a “coordinated effort to increase gun control.” The Observer writes: “Murphy likened the idea to the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, a cap-and-trade program for several northeastern states that New Jersey withdrew from under Gov. Chris Christie.”
“Apparently the Bill of Rights and the Constitution of the United States of America are not enough for Mr. Murphy,” Lonegan said, “Now he wants to create a new level of government in between the federal government and the states.” Lonegan added: “We do not need another level of government with a host of new bureaucrats to find ways to circumvent the Bill of Rights. Americans are paying too much for government already. We should be consolidating government, making it smaller, not growing it.”
In the Observer story, Murphy said that if elected governor, he would sign a number of bills into law to make it more difficult to obtain a firearm for self-protection in New Jersey. Lonegan noted that New Jersey is already one of the worst states in America for allowing people to defend their homes and families.
Lonegan said: “How many more Carol Bownes must there be before Phil Murphy and the Democrats in the Legislature provide the people of New Jersey with the same protection they enjoy?” Carol Bowne is the New Jersey woman murdered while waiting for a hand-gun permit for self-defense. As Gannett reported (June 4, 2015):
” When Carol Bowne felt the threat of domestic violence, the petite hairdresser took steps to protect herself. (She) got a restraining order against a former boyfriend, installed security cameras and an alarm system to her home and began the months-long process of obtaining a handgun, friends said. But it wasn’t enough. Bowne, 39, was stabbed to death in the driveway of her Patton Avenue home on Wednesday night.”
“Under New Jersey law, you cannot sue government for failing to protect you. The police do a great job, but they can’t be everywhere. If government doesn’t budget for enough police protection and they fail to arrive on time, you end up dead and people like Phil Murphy put on their sad face and tell you ‘thems the breaks’,” Lonegan added.
Lonegan continued: “What they won’t do is remind you that each and every citizen has primary responsibility over his or her personal safety. Government won’t do that for you, so government shouldn’t take away your ability to preserve your life and well-being.”
“These phonies claim to dislike guns when in fact, they love guns and would not work in a building that wasn’t protected by men with guns.”
Lonegan reminded voters: “In his last job, Phil Murphy was protected by United States Marines. He and his fellow Democrats in the Legislature wouldn’t think of dismissing their armed-protection, but they are willing to sacrifice the lives of average citizens on the altar of some feel-good ideology.”
“The life of a single mom, employed as a manager in a fast-food restaurant, who doesn’t live in a wealthy community with plenty of police protection — her life is worth as much as Phil Murphy’s and those of his Democrat allies. Unlike them, she must launder her own clothes, clean her own house, cook her own food, and rely on her own resources for self-protection. They pay people for all those things. Just because she is working class, that doesn’t mean that she shouldn’t have access to the same protection they pay people to provide for them.”
“Murphy is a coward and his party are cowards for making sure that their lives are safe, while trying to deny that right to everyone who isn’t rich enough to afford it.”

ICE is focused on smart, effective immigration enforcement that targets serious criminal aliens who present the greatest risk to the security of our communities, such as those charged with or convicted of homicide, rape, robbery, kidnapping, major drug offenses and threats to national security.
ERO Newark works closely with federal, state, and local law enforcement partners to enforce federal immigration laws as part of its homeland security mission.

THE RECORD
A man accused of fatally stabbing a woman in Troy, N.Y., Monday morning was arrested several hours later following a chase on the Palisades Interstate Parkway and the New Jersey Turnpike, authorities said.
David Campos, 45, allegedly killed Denise Gely, 44, with whom he once had a romantic relationship, around 5:45 a.m., Troy Police Capt. Daniel DeWolf said.
The couple had a history of “domestic issues,” DeWolf said, but Campos had never been arrested in Troy previously. At one time they lived together in Troy, but they were not at the time of her death, he said.
One of the couple’s three children called police to report the alleged attack, DeWolf said. Two were home at the time.
Troy is about 150 miles north of New York City along the Hudson River and authorities sent police departments a description of his vehicle, a black Chrysler 200, and his license plate.
Officers on the New York side of the Palisades Interstate Parkway discovered the car and a chase ensued into New Jersey around 9:40 a.m.
Officer Donald Liu, a Palisades Interstate Parkway cop in New Jersey, joined the pursuit at Interchange 5, Chief Michael Coppola said in a statement. Coppola, Detective Lt. Roman Galloza, Lt. Jesse Cohen and Officers Travis Philhower and Timothy Conboy jumped in as the chase continued south on the parkway.
