The world we live in: Mother, toddler stabbed to death in Queens home; father is critical after apparent murder-suicide., Ohio Police officers ambushed with gunfire., Investigation underway after video surfaces of Jacksonville officer punching man during traffic stop.

   All disturbing facts.  The world needs to be more peaceful and treat others with respect.  

  Once again, I am directing your attention to TRAINING. As promised, the NJNEOA is now scheduling trainings in South Jersey.

1) The six-day “Narcotic and Criminal Enforcement Training” is scheduled to start on September 5, 2025, in Clarksboro, NJ.,

2) In addition, we have scheduled a one-day class on “Rules of Engagement” in Middlesex County which is directed towards all law enforcement who handle confidential sources and work as undercover officers.  This class is being taught by a recently retired Task Force Officer who happens to be one of the best in the 'business' and a NJSP lieutenant and a retired narcotic detective/task force officer.,

3) On October 15th we will be hosting our 2nd “Advanced Animal Fighting Investigations seminar in Middlesex County. This is in conjunction with the Humane Society of the United States.,

4) A three-day “Advanced Narcotic and Criminal Enforcement Training” is scheduled to begin on October 27th in Middlesex County.,

5) We are also working on hosting an “Undercover Extractions” seminar which will be geared for detectives working specifically in narcotic units with undercover officers. Attendance is limited and there must be a minimum of three officers from a unit to attend. It will held in Middlesex County, sometime in early November. Please check out the website njneoa.org.

    Thank you to the Gloucester County Prosecutor's Office and all the volunteer instructors who make our trainings possible. It is because of these professionals we can provide no cost/low-cost trainings to our active law enforcement officers. STAY SAFE out there and protect the community and protect yourself and your team!

    Last BUT not the least, I am thankful to the NJNEOA GARRABRANT “team of two” for constantly helping with our events.
