Lucas released till Monday
Former Manalapan Mayor Andrew Lucas appeared before U.S. Magistrate Judge Douglas Arpert in Trenton this afternoon in his initial appearance concerning the 11 count indictment for which he was arrested this morning.
Arpert released Lucas and gave him until Monday to post a $500,000 secured bond. His bail conditions include electronic monitoring, turning over any weapons and his travel is restricted to New Jersey, according to U. S. Attorney’s spokesperson Matthew Reilly.
No plea was entered, which Reilly said is standard for an intial appearance in federal court.
