Callaway left the Council dais and loudly stated in the Chamber that "That's right, my name is Farooq" ... Local TV 40 filmed all of the crazy behavior ... LET'S SEE IF THEY'LL PLAY THE TAPE OF FAROOQ CALLAWAY IN ACTION ... No police presence at the meeting ... Probably a direct result of our investigative report, detailing the fact that Chief Art Snellbaker had failed to properly instruct police personnel at Council meetings ... Joe LaTorre said "I'm here as a citizen, not as a Police Officer" ... the crowd was very raucous ... Attorney Irv Jacoby refused to testify due to his attorney/client privilege ... Dan Gallagher stated he "is holding Cheryl Banks, Ron Cash, Irv Jacoby in contempt ... For the record, Gallagher cannot hold anyone in contempt ... He and Callaway are out of control ... You could see, the immense pressure brought on by the highly active criminal investigation being conducted by the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office... Also noteworthy is the fact that Attorney Fred Bor (representing Cheryl Banks) formally asked for Callaway to recuse himself, due to the pending criminal investigation/complaint ... Callaway refused to recuse himself ... so Banks was advised not to testify before the Callaway/Gallagher joke hearings ... Also interesting, Assistant City Business Administrator Dominic Cappella sang like a "birdie" for Callaway tonight ... Cappella testified under oath that he purchased a fund raising ticket inside City Hall ...
THE BEHAVIOR OF THE CALLAWAY CROWD IS ONE OF THE MOST UNDIGNIFIED SIGHTS IN THE HISTORY OF PUBLIC SERVICE ...
