Jersey City, NJ Two New Jersey police officers have been suspended without pay after multiple videos showed them attacking a Dominos manager while on Duty. Surprisingly, both of them have also been charged with multiple crimes.
Rodney Clark and Courtney Solomon are both charged with disorderly conduct, harassment and making terroristic threats after they stormed into a Dominos pizza restaurant and began shaking down the manager.
Marina Elsamina, an employee at the Communipaw Avenue pizza shop, told The Jersey Journal in an interview that workers there received an online complaint on Tuesday evening by one of the police officers, apparently over a delivery issue, according to NJ.com.
Shortly after receiving the complaint, the officers showed up at the store and began attacking the manager, Mena Kirolos. The initial confrontation was captured on employee cellphones as well as surveillance video.
After the officers threw the innocent man up against the wall, they then demanded he go outside. According to the video, Kirolos, and multiple witnesses, cops made several threats toward him while physically assaulting him and saying they were going to lock him upover pizza.
As NBC New York reports, Kirolos said at that point, the more irate of the two officers told him Ill lock you up, and the cellphone footage then shows the manager holding his hands out as if they were cuffed as he says please do it!
(I was thinking) What can I do?, Kirolos said. Hes a police officer. I cant do anything back.
During the attack, the manager called 911 and the officers then left.
The dispute happened after cops claimed that the driver never showed up with their pizza. However, according to the Dominos employees, the driver went to the address and knocked for several minutes but nobody answered the door nor the repeated calls back to the number.
Instead of simply asking for a refund, these officers used their police powers to assault an innocent man and threaten him with kidnapping.
We confront customers every day who fight with us, but hes using his police powers, Elsamina said.
The prosecutors office will fully investigate the allegations against these officers and prosecute in accordance with the law to ensure that justice is served, Hudson County Prosecutor Esther Suarez said in a statement. Officers who abuse their power and break the law must be held accountable for their actions.
As NJ.com reports, the cops in New Jersey are on a seeming rampage lately as theyve been the subject of repeated stories of violence and corruption.
Eleven cops, including the former police chief, have pleaded guilty in federal court to collecting pay for off-duty jobs they did not perform. Earlier this month, another officer was sentenced for striking a man with his police car during an arrest. Four others face charges related to a scheme to falsify timesheets. Four additional cops were indicted last year on charges related to a high-speed police pursuit that ended in a fiery crash on Tonnelle Avenue, reports NJ.com.
As for Kirolos, he just wants an apologyone that will likely never come.
I dont like being cursed at, being touched, he said. I only demanded an apology. Thats it.
New Jersey is an oddly diverse state despite its relatively small size in many different ways.
Though just about 120 miles long and about 40 miles wide, even the weather and temp widely varies from north to south.
There still exist much farmland.
The largest underground fresh water reserves and unpopulated area on the entire east coast exists in the Pine Barrens (encompassing about a 1/3 of the lower state.
The beaches are magnificent; the sand even varies from north to south.
HERE IS THE PROBLEM:
The people and obviously cops vary to a dramatic degree, given Third Worlders, Illegals, and liberal/insane Democrat Demos which dominate in the far northeast "armpit" area (Newark/Jersey City/Elizabeth/Paterson); its "groin" located in the mid/south west (Camden/Trenton); with one stinky south Jersey exception: Atlantic City.
I WILL say: LE in the entire state leave much to be desired. They do have a chip on their collective shoulder.
