The Union County Prosecutors Office is going to have its hands full with this one. Their investigation into allegations in Clark began over a year or two ago.
If the UCPO was aware of these audio tapes and sat on them, allowing lawsuit payoffs and other settlements, someone has some explaining to do.
This brings into question the golden parachute pension payoff for corrupt police Chief David Wayman. Wayman was allegedly investigated by the UCPO for his role in a hit and run accident coverup and Wayman’s theft from the Westfield Police Department’s property/evidence room. Allegedly, no criminal charges or departmental charges were levied.
We do know that the Administration agreed to, & \or sought a confidentiality agreement concerning his "retirement". Since BOTH the Administration and the Prosecutor's office had video of the involvement of the chief in the theft and testimony of his accident,both should hang their heads in hiding these facts. They reprimanded the underlings but gave Wayman the " in good standing " he needed to collect his pension.
ReplyDeleteLike Clark, Westfield got the desired silence. It just left Westfield and the then Prosecutor with a stain. The "special investigation unit" of the Prosecutor was, and is, a tool of the politicians.
