D’Amico: Cops are too lazy to do their jobs

By Art Gallagher

Freeholder John D’Amico told the Asbury Park Press Editorial board that should the Democrats win control of Monmouth County government on November 2 that the county will reopen the Youth Detention Center which the Republicans closed this year, saving the taxpayers $2.5 million annually.

D’Amico, who collects a $70,500 state pension in addition to his Freeholder salary, said that the YDC should be reopened because some police officers are not executing warrants because they don’t want to make the trip to the Middlesex County Youth Detention Center in North Brunswick which houses Monmouth’s juveniledelinquents under a shared services agreement.  D’Amico also reasoned the Monmouth YDC should be reopened because family, social workers and lawyers might be unable or unwilling to make the trip to North Brunswick.
