Governor Christie Signs Bill Dissolving NJSPCA! Happy Day!

Thanks to investigative coverage by Walt Kane of News 12 New Jersey, NJ Spotlight and the efforts of (now-retired) Senator Ray Lesniak, New Jersey’s homeless and abused animals are much better off now that outgoing Governor Christie signed the bill dissolving the NJSPCA as a law enforcement agency.

This band of wanna-be cops leaves a sad legacy of suffering animals, lost opportunity, and the enormous waste of millions of donor dollars. The organization’s leadership, described by the NJ SCI as “Wolves in Sheeps’ Clothing” showed their true colors at the last minute with a cynical attempt to deceive the New Jersey Assembly; luckily, it didn’t work. Now the important work of caring for animals can go where it belongs, to capable and legitimate law enforcement officers.

I am working with HSUS New Jersey to develop an educational program on animal law enforcement, for County Prosecutors and HLEOs in North Jersey, South Jersey and Central Jersey.  WE WILL MAKE THIS WORK!

What’s Next When the NJSPCA is Dissolved?

The NJSPCA has done little or nothing for suffering animals in NJ. They have, however, bought and equipped cars and trucks, radios, and a HQ building; spent absurd sums on outside counsel, pursued frivolous lawsuits, bought hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition, vests, uniforms, and carried shiny badges.  They’ve illegally pulled over NJ drivers without authority.  Their absurd and abusive behavior went on and on.  But – that is set to change once Governor Christie signs the bill dissolving these “wanna-be” cops as a law enforcement agency.

But what’s next, once the responsibility for animal cruelty law enforcement is turned over to ACTUAL professionals, not amateur clowns?

Corrupt and Incompetent NJSPCA Swept into Dustbin of History!

Today the only thing more exciting than the Crimson Tide’s amazing overtime win was the vote of the NJ Assembly, 63-0, to dissolve the NJSPCA as a law enforcement organization!  Thanks to the efforts of the “Reformers” Group, Senator Ray Lesniak and Walt Kane of News 12 New Jersey, this group of wanna-be cops will finally be put out to pasture, and the enforcement of animal cruelty laws in NJ will go where it belongs, to real law enforcement officers and NJ County Prosecutors.  It speaks volumes that at the last moment, the NJSPCA undertook an email campaign asking its members to deceive the NJ Assembly.  It failed.  They failed.  Good riddance.

They are, as @RealDonaldTrump would say, SAD!

News12NJ and NJ Spotlight Expose Attempt by NJSPCA to Deceive NJ Assembly

In an exclusive tonight, News 12 NJ’s Walt Kane exposes an attempt by NJSPCA official Phil Amato to deceive the NJ Assembly via a dishonest and possibly illegal email campaign, in opposition to a pending bill.  The bill, which follows on the heels of a scathing report on the NJSPCA by the New Jersey State Commission of Investigation, would remove the failed agency’s law enforcment authority and place it in the hands of competent, trained police officers and NJ County Prosecutors.  Where it belongs .

Walt exposes the NJSPCA’s email scheme HERE.

Caren Chesler of NJ Spotlight followed up with THIS piece.

It is shameful.  And the NJSPCA is shameless.
