What is Law Enforcement in Essex County doing to prevent carjacking?

0

Because of the sharp spike in carjackings, Acting Prosecutor Laurino convened a crime summit on Dec. 6, 2010, with representatives of the Newark, East Orange, Orange and Irvington Police Departments. At that time, efforts were undertaken to improve communications among law enforcement agencies. Later in December an investigative Carjacking Task Force with representatives of the FBI, the Newark Police Department and the Essex County Prosecutor s Office was established. This Task Force will bring appropriate resources and coordination mechanisms needed to bring carjackers to justice, and to be proactive in preventing future carjackings. The Acting Prosecutor stated that he will refer appropriate carjacking cases to a new Special Prosecution Unit that will be staffed with the most experienced trial attorneys in the Essex County Prosecutor s Office.
