“So I can certainly understand how the stress of a job, coupled with the stress of losing a loved one may lead to substantial drug abuse,” Taylor said, referring to Busold’s loss of a parent last year.

What utter BS. I have lost my father, my last aunt, my last two uncles (save one), and two horses in the past few years - and I haven’t resorted to even incidental drug usage. That Taylor excuses someone’s “substantial drug abuse” like that is pathetic. Really makes me wonder…

One was a sheriff officer. I wonder if he was on the crime scene list….

Maybe doing a delivery,

Interesting that LE in THAT state was wiling to take another look at the case. Too bad that LE in Morris County NJ have their heads stuck too far up their b*** to consider the effect that LK’s relentless bullying and threats and other heinous actions had on triggering MB’s mental breakdown.

Too busy buying drugs for inmates to actually help a member of their community

No - Suboxone isn’t contraindicated for the medications used for the disease I’m thinking about. Not saying Lauren Shay Kanarek has contracted anything through previous iv heroin use, just that it would explain the need for quarterly blood draws. Suboxone very rarely damages the liver of the person who uses it.

ETA: Suboxone can’t be legally taken by anyone competing internationally.

We stumbled across this documentary the other night. It was entertaining and horrifying. What does it have to do with this thread? It was located in NJ and the corruption of officials was simply accepted by so many interviewed. Is that a Jersey thing…?

IMDb

Class Action Park (2020) - IMDb

Class Action Park: Directed by Seth Porges, Chris Charles Scott III. With John Hodgman, Faith Anderson, Alison Becker, Bill Benneyan. A documentary that focuses on a dangerously legendary water park and its slew of injuries and crimes along

Thanks for that link. I will check it out. Honestly, the more I learn about the wackos running government in New Jersey, the less I think of the folks there that elected said wackos.

I am late replying to your many gentle queries. The nespresso machine failed me this morning.

I was considering that this esteemed actor would make a fine Mr. Bilinkas.

there’s a resemblance, no?

While I think he has done a lot of good work in his career, I wonder if he has now reached the stage where it would be hard to see him as anyone other than himself on the screen.

Hey look, Judge Taylor showing compassion for those who flagrantly betrayed public trust:

Calling their job forfeitures “unfortunate…but absolutely necessary,” Judge Taylor observed that substance abuse affects everyone but may be “particularly acute” for those in law enforcement.

They “put themselves on the front lines, they put their lives at risk often, and oftentimes without much appreciation.

“So I can certainly understand how the stress of a job, coupled with the stress of losing a loved one may lead to substantial drug abuse,” Taylor said, referring to Busold’s loss of a parent last year.

Interesting, so does this extend to addicts in his courtroom, on the stand, lying,…?

@DownYonder

Interesting coincidence - they were apparently working at the county jail during time that MB was locked up there.

Hmmm…

One was a sheriff officer. I wonder if he was on the crime scene list….

They were all sheriff’s deputies. Four worked at the county jail, the fifth transferred from Corrections to Security at the County Courthouse in 2016. If he hadn’t been busted in 2020 and sentenced in 2021, he may very likely have been present in the courtroom during MB’s trial!

And since they worked at the jail, I am not sure they would have been dispatched to the crime scene. Their connection to drug traffickers does raise eyebrows though, given the drug connections of the antagonists in the LK/MB saga.

And the fact that there were five officers who were caught makes me wonder how many other officers in that sheriff’s dept. were/are involved with illicit drug usage and trafficking. And perhaps were the same inept officers who wouldn’t help MB (deliberately protecting LK/RG?), and/or were present at the Hawthorne Hill crime scene. Oooh, I wish I was an investigative reporter…

He clearly has a soft spot for addicts.

Nailed it!

So, someone Taylor probably saw and interacted with on a daily basis…

[Laurierace]

Sorry for the aside but I didn’t watch the 48 hours episode on Saturday because my daughter got married that night. Before I pay to see it on whatever platform I need to pay for to watch it can anyone clarify if it was new info or just a re-airing of the episode before?

[Maria]

mostly the same. A few bits and pieces changed. Nagle is not on the most recent one.

[SoCoPony]

Also it did not have anything about George Clooney in it.

[ekat]

@erinmeri did a most excellent breakdown of the edits from the transcripts of the two version.

Barisone KROL this Friday, 5/26

In case anyone is curious how much changed from original airing to this past Saturday… very little. ETA: so much for the “heavily edited” claims… Original transcript on left, updated on right. Updated dates and context: [image] Removed the part about the lawsuit and quote by BN and LO’s response. [image] Removed update on Barisone’s hospitalization and next steps at end. [image]

Thanks for looking into this.

I’m just speculating but it seems to me that Bruce Nagel wanted nothing to do with the Ks or the negative image associated with them as well as the civil trial as things unfolded. Scrubbing any of his involvement in the 48 Hours episodes also seems to support that opinion.

Baldwin can play RG. Neither know anything about guns.

[eggbutt]

Agreed. There were a few shortened video only (no dialog) shots but nothing dramatic. By far the only glaring change was the removal of all things Bruce Nagel.

[eggbutt]

I need to see a photo of him biting his pinky nail to make a decision.

We need an emoji of a horse snorting! LOL!

[SoCoPony]

Why snort when you can
