Warren County In the News - 2022 Edition

“One of the worst crash scenes” the Warren County prosecutor has ever seen. Alcohol is to have played a role. The driver was thrown from the vehicle and ended up on the second floor. His passenger was killed. A resident of the home was injured. The photos are incredible.

On Sunday 2/6/22 at 2:30am, a drunk, speeding, reckless driver went off the road with his truck which went airborne, crashing through the house and into a 2nd floor bedroom, where the headboard was on the other side of the wall. The impact sent Kim (wife, mother, new grandmother, and a Registered Nurse) in an airlift to the local hospital in critical condition. Unfortunately, Kim’s dog, also in the bed with her, did not survive the impact. Miraculously, Tim, (Kims husband, a self-employed landscape designer) was in another room at the moment of impact and was able to call for help.

I want this story to reach millions. There are so many lessons.

Please share this with any and all of your connections to spread this story around. I know the power of ripple effects, so if one person in another country I have never or will ever meet decides to get a ride home from the pub instead of driving because of seeing this, all of my efforts have been worth it. Your sharing this has the capacity to change the trajectory of people’s lives. Love each day.

25 years ago, we were told never to meet people from the Internet, or to get in the car with a stranger. Now, we do both. Uber, Lyft, or any of the countless options are available to us. Order it for yourself, order it for your friend, or stop that friend who lives “just around the block”. If you can afford a car payment, gas, and insurance to get to wherever you are drinking, you can afford an Uber ride to get home safely.

The family is consumed with the medical care at the ICU, so I obtained permission from the family to begin orchestrating a support network as they recover, rebuild, and remember.

I was given clearance by the family to share the following update, “2/10/22 (NoonEST) "Still critical but stable. Hopefully only one more surgery to go. She’s being strong but still needs prayers"

Kim & Tim Terry Recovery Efforts:

They are the most amazing, kind, honest, hard-working, giving family; now we have a chance to give to and help them. GoFundMe Donation Fundraiser: https://gofund.me/07da71b4 I understand that there are strengths and shortcomings with every donation platform. I have chosen GoFundMe as it is the most widely known. The family is eternally grateful for all of the support! With the extent of the injuries and damage, this is extremely serious and will take years to resolve.

If you would rather give physical labor, food, cash/check, Amazon gift cards, etc. (please lean into whatever strengths you have) to the family, I’m located in Bethlehem, PA and travel out as far as Bridgewater, NJ every week. I would be happy to meet you somewhere in order to relay your donation. Please send me a message for my schedule.

We also have a Facebook Group for collaborative support:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/terrysupport

I share the deepest thanks for all of your love, support, donations, offers, calls, offerings, etc.! The quantity, quality, and variety of offerings has been breathtaking. We are overwhelmed (in a good way) with the way people are stepping up to help this family. In telling this story I’ve realized that the Terry family is akin to movie characters. The husband and wife with a daughter and a son, Ford trucks in the driveway, a yellow Labrador retriever smiling from the porch of the farmhouse, he’s the local landscaper and was our t-ball coach, she was the school nurse, just incredible Americans.

Please share this / contribute if you are able / share the story / send a prayer up. Go live your life, because we never know when something outside of our control could change everything.

The White Twp. have such great opposition because they are proposed in a bad location.
-Miles from the nearest interstate
-Along the Delaware river
-Poor access, Roads can't handle massive increase in truck traffic.
-hundreds of roadside houses along 519
-Lack of infrastructure in White Twp to support them.
-Built on prime farmland
-Built on karst geology, with the potential to pollute groundwater and cause sink holes.

These plus a few other reasons are why the White warehouse project is a recipe for disaster in Warren County.

Warehouses in appropriate areas are not seeing such opposition.

Amazon usually has the best and cheapest prices on any given item (and I've ordered quite a range of items). It comes in 2 days. You can return it w/o a hassle (at Kohl's). No shipping charges over $25 or $35. I don't have to leave my house like I used to before i discovered Amazon (like going to the Dept. Stores, Target, Kohl's and Walmart to comparison shop for Electronics and non-perishable food items (like drink and cosmetics and other product).

Bug3
Mar '22

Another article puts his age at 21.

14 years old is a CHILD. Even compared to a 21 year old. This was not “teenage hormones” it was grooming and kidnapping. He took a child across state lines with the intention of raping her. That IS sex trafficking.


Sorry Bug3, I jumped all over you unfairly.


It appears according to the law it is sex trafficking.

"Sex trafficking is the recruitment, harboring, transportation, provision, obtaining, patronizing, or soliciting of a person for the purposes of a commercial sex act, in which the commercial sex act is induced by force, fraud, or coercion, or in which the person induced to perform such an act has not attained 18 years ..."


Commercial means for profit.

This guy certainly was waaay out of line on the age of the girl..but nothing in that article said anything that would insinuate beyond them messing around. Nothing with commercial association.


So- unless there is more info / evidence- trafficking charges are just throwing the book at him so that something else sticks when he pleas.

Kidnapping is by force or fraud- and it seems after 'months of communication' in which they spoke sexually- she was not kidnapped- but went by choice.

Young naive bad choice? Sure- but still not kidnapped.

The rest of the charges apply- and yea- the guy probably deserves a stiff punishment & fine.

I know internet blurs meaning and intent in conversation- so don't think I am defending the guy...just speaking to the legalese they used in the article for the charges.


Josh, since she is below the age of consent in NJ (16) and he is more than 4 years older than she is (which was a modification to the law known as the Romeo and Juliet clause), he would definitely be charged with statutory rape. Just "messing around garners him that charge and up to 10 years in prison for doing so IF found guilty.

https://www.brickdonlaw.com/blog/2019/december/what-is-the-age-of-consent-in-new-jersey-/

You're likely right that they're "throwing the book at him" with the other charges, unless he has a history of such things, or has had communications with others about her that make the police suspect that he had other plans.

He is actually charged with Human trafficking not sex trafficking. While very close in many ways and without reading the hundreds and hundreds of pages of the law and subsequent Acts associated with the law, he violated it. I'm a big fan of capital punishment...

"The endangering charges are second- and third-degree offenses with, pending conviction, maximum state prison sentences of 10 and five years, Pfeiffer said. The first offense alleges a person “knowingly distributes an item depicting the sexual exploitation or abuse of a child”; the second count alleges the possession or such pornography."

So his wife stated in an interview that he brought home a girl and had sex with her than left??? She knew about it when the story appeared on TV, yet chose NOT to notify the authorities. WTH, was her self-esteem that bad, was she so afraid of him, or so entangled in love with someone she knew had killed this girl and others, yet said nothing?

My mind just boggles at the implications of this. Not only that anyone could do something so heinous, but that she covered up for him. There's a special place in hell for her too, if there is such a place. One could only hope. That is, unless all her time with him was pure hell.

Come on man, skip the fear and loathing and try some facts: there were 1,626 cases of myocarditis among more than 354 million primary doses given between December 2020 and August 2021. It's also a pretty narrow window of adolescent males with the highest risks. Six year olds fare much better.

If these were both from the vaccine, you should be shocked. Very shocked.

Of course, our government lets us make our own choice here unlike other medical conditions where force is applied, but before you throw your baby out with the bath water, here's an update from Science Mag generated this month, so pretty current. https://www.science.org/content/article/heart-risks-data-gaps-fuel-debate-covid-19-boosters-young-people.

Yes, children and young adults can get an inflammatory reaction from catching covid. This can result in serious heart damage, cardio shock and cardiac arrest.
So if you don't vaccinate your child, they are at risk of getting Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome ( MIS-C ) which can cause heart damage and cardiac arrest.

Mansfield908 - If you are vaccinated you are much less likely to get covid - but if you do get a breakthrough infection you are less likely to have a serious illness than people who are unvaccinated.
Vaccinated people have a lower viral load if they get infected. So besides not getting seriously ill, the smaller viral load lessens the risk of transmitting the virus to another person.

OK, three cardiac episodes in pre teens, in Washington, in less than a week. That should be concerning and officials should elaborate ASAP. Yes, they are someone's kids, a terrible event, but folks need to know so they can take any, if necessary, actions to reduce risks.

It could be the vaccine, doubtful. It could be covid, a possibility. It could be something else, a possibility. It could be "natural," as in none-of-the-above. Probably, it's a combination of issues with each event perhaps from different causes.

Think about the possible outcomes. One outcome says don't vaccinate, the other say the opposite, and you shoulda done it already. That's 180-degree polar opposite outcomes.

IMO, if Calico identifies three in a week, that deserves some answers since, based on the responses, the very rumor that something weird is happening is already shaping folk's actions to protect family. Would be nice to get it right and that takes an official response. If I had kids, I would be all over Washington government to provide some answers. Three in a week does not seem normal.

Thank you Calico696.

I tried a few days ago to look up various agencies that might have some input on this but no luck. I’m sure others will be interested in getting more information or perhaps NJ News on tv will report on it.

Just a thought

If it really was a covid issue causing the health emergencies..wouldn't the same thing be happening across the county?.. seems to be a local issue and the only people who should be interested are the parents and their medical team..not enough here for a public health panic

Actually Bug I was recently speaking with my doctor last month after a false positive FIT test. (FIT tests in part look for blood in the stool for colon cancer screening). We spoke about the increase doctors are seeing all over the country in a variety of issues related to hematology and related conditions. He stated data is being compiled regarding patients with these newly diagnosed conditions. Only his opinion but he did state the coincidence does seem to align with the roll out of the covid vaccine and multiple boosters. He also said there is data that has shown a higher increase in cardiac events in young people (in their 20"s ) after getting boosted. He did say it will take years to get true data as it relates to side effects of the vaccines and many boosters. The reason we started that conversation was the very first question he asked after reading the results was if I was vaccinated. I asked why he asked that and his response was what I just detailed above.

I personally only know of three people who were vaccinated and very soon after experienced fairly serious medical issues. One with body wide hemorrhaging and was hospitalized for several weeks only days after getting the jab.. Another had some hemorrhaging and issues with pericardium after getting boosted. Also, my healthy 27 year old son had cardiac issues shortly after getting vaccinated as well. All of them had never had any health issues prior to getting the jab.

Only time will tell the real consequences of the vaccine and boosters.


This all boils down to the fact that cardiac events are not normal in children. Attending school as a child from K-12, there was never once a cardiac event involving a student. I have a feeling the majority of people can say the same. I have also worked at a school for 25+ years and there has never once been a cardiac event involving a student. How could 4 students, in the same town, have cardiac events? Something is definitely off here.

I remember the campaigns to install defibrillators in schools, this doesn't seem so alarming to me - what if 3 kids had anaphylaxis emergencies in the same week, pretty common occurrence with several allergies (and also a potential vaccine side effect)

"Sudden Cardiac Arrest is the #1 Killer of Student Athletes1

Up to 72% of sudden cardiac arrests are preceded by symptoms, which often go unrecognized, which is why parents and student-athletes thoughtfully completing sports clearance packets and health history forms together is so critical. SCA is also the leading cause of death on school campuses, with 1 in 300 youth having an undetected heart condition that puts them at risk for SCA"

A good statement quoted by Calico:


"In the absence of answers, individuals can sometimes fill the void by ascribing their own fact patterns in an effort to make meaning of this loss. When rumors circulate and mistruths propagate, it hurts the healing process and is unhealthy to our students. "


Exactly. Just looking for answers.

Calico696 Calico696

But, no one knows the outcome of the children and those calls, correct? If you do, who's violating HIPAA?

Speculating hurts everyone. Vaccinated: blamed. Not-vaccinated: blamed. No one on here knows the medical history of each child or the exact outcome of their emergency and so on.

I think it boils down to people wanting to blame both non and vaccinated depending on what you believe.

You may want to look up what HIPPA means bc so many misuse throwing that around

As a mom I can say I would like answers regardless. The number of minors passing or serious medical issues is increasing we have the data.

However, without the cause it’s hard for me to know if there are additional steps I can take to protect my family.

What I meant, Mansfield 908 is that unless someone got the medical records of the children both before and after their supposed heart problems, then don't blabber....and also if they don't..same thing: don't blabber without facts. It's just hearsay or playing into personal beliefs at that point (i.e. vaccinations, etc). I don't think the post has kids, so they wouldn't know how it comes across to scaring people and so on. I just feel for the kids no matter what the circumstance or outcome. It's scary as an adult, let alone as a child. Just wishing the kids well.

As noted above, vaccine reaction is unusual, usually in adolescent boys. Three girls would be extremely rare for the vaccine as a cause. SO, if these were all 7-year old girls, doubtful it's the vaccine. Doubtful for three adolescent boys too,

Post covid cardiac events do happen, happen in kids, this is a higher possibility than vaccine as a cause. The numbers are still really high for that although a much higher chance than after getting the vaccine.

It could be something else.

It could be a combination of these three, probably is.

For parents, from Children's Hospital in Phili, an update: https://www.chop.edu/news/health-tip/myocarditis-and-covid-19-get-facts#:~:text=Fact%3A%20%E2%80%9CChildren%20are%20much%20more,don't%20need%20the%20vaccine.

Bottom line: risk of vaccine lower than risks of covid after-effects without the vaccine. According to the numbers, according to Children's Hospital.

Good luck, hope this helps.

Re: Warren County In the News - 2022 Edition

Unfortunately there are more than just that duo that travel from Paterson to deal their dope out here in Warren county. They double the price when they drive out here to sell. Two less is always a good thing.

I have never noticed a line like the last one in an arrest article before:

"No phone number could be found for either suspect to try to reach them for comment."

What the hell do they expect to hear from the accused? Oopsie I was caught? LOL

Like Rocky of Rocky and Mugsy on Bugs Bunny always said "Shut up shuttin up" .


25 “BRICKS” of Heroin worth $8,000?
That’s $320 a “brick”— “Street Vaiue”?
Try 25 Legos
Or 25 Chiclets.
Good job, but please dispense with the grandiosity

Stymie Stymie
Nov '22

A brick is 50 bags or folds. They are usually $250 a brick or $5 a bag in Paterson. Out here in Warren County a bag is closer to $10 or $500 a brick. 25 bricks could be anywhere from $6250-$12,500. There is a quantity "discount" hence the $8000 estimated number.

Numbers fluctuate in other parts of the county but here in the NY metropolitan area and in particular Paterson, it is plentiful and cheap. Unfortunately.

Independence also has a paid staff during the day... I wonder how Mansfield residents feel about getting an Independence bill?


Really odd decision.
Anyone who listens to a scanner is aware that just about every emergency call in this area (Hackettstown, Independence, Mansfield, Liberty, Allamuchy) ends up being dispatched to several local EMS stations for response. Because of lack of available responders? Will the current members of Mansfield FAS, who I would assume are trained as required, now join IFAS and continue serving Mansfield?
What are the "extenuating circumstances" that they mention in the announcement?

"Will the current members of Mansfield FAS, who I would assume are trained as required, now join IFAS and continue serving Mansfield?"

The article stated the vehicle would be left there for volunteers to use 'after hours' for lack of a better description. Why wouldn't Hackettstown just cover Mansfield? I assume this had to be put out for bid if Independence is paid?


Hackettstown probably doesn't handle the calls because they don't have enough members to handle the calls in Hackettstown. I can see in the future that there may be a shared service between the three towns.

Nothing was put out to bid. This was done behind closed doors in executive sessions away from the public or Mansfield EMS knowledge until the decision was made and announced at a township meeting. Hackettstown EMS was never approached by Mansfield Township despite rumors.

As elected officials, the Mansfield committee has the right and obligation to make these types of decisions. It is representative democracy at work.

Absolutely they have the right but there are also consequences to no public input and closed door dealings.

Shouldn't be any consequences. If you had no emergency services, you'd have a point.
They did right by the residents.

Mansfield Squad did not close and still exists. They were under township management. The township made a choice behind close doors with little input (in my opinion) to contract some other squad. Glad you feel that is right. I disagree.

As a matter of transparency they should explain their decision to their residents.

One of the more recent cardiac arrests in local children was from a congenital birth defect. Congratulations to the team of 5 individuals who saved her life that day.
