He'll have plenty of time to make copies now

by: Jason Springer

Sat Dec 20, 2008 at 01:15:00 PM EST



Twenty plus years of work down the drain:
An man employed by Hudson County for the past two decades agreed to give up his job as a condition of pleading guilty Thursday to stealing copying paper from the Hudson County Administration Building, officials said.

Shawn Haley, 43, pleaded guilty to one count of theft of under $200 before Superior Court Judge Kevin Callahan yesterday, Hudson County Prosecutor Edward DeFazio yesterday.

On Oct. 22, Haley was caught by Hudson County sheriff's officers as he was stealing the paper at the building at 595 Newark Ave. in Jersey City, DeFazio said. Haley faces a term of probation when he appears before Callahan for sentencing, DeFazio said.

I wonder if there is more to the story that they didn't suspend the guy.  He would have been better off just going out and buying the paper, a fact I'm sure he is painfully aware of now.

Definitely More To This Story.... (0.00 / 0)
Like just about everything that comes out of Hudson County politics (and even law "enforcement".....as if there were a difference) there's usually way more beneath the surface than ever "meets the eye".

This is like Saddam Hussein firing someone for being mean to their pet gerbil.  The hypocrisy of the thieves who are looting Hudson County nailing this man to the wall for the kind of pilfering (that is endemic in offices throughout the planet) boggles the mind.   Yes, it's wrong to steal....and he deserved a suspension; but to lose a career and a retirement over some copy paper?    

Outrageous injustice is routine in Hudson County, here's a far more serious example....
