Essex County Vehicular Homicide Detective Mishandling of Deshon




In the video, you are going to hear that Transit Attorney Michael Tuzzio is going to lie and say Romaine has a clean driving record and Detective Mike Booker tell Wilson Romaine that it was nothing he could have done to prevent the killing of Deshon. Then Booker is going to tell Romaine he did not do anything wrong (by killing Deshon) and the interview is going to be short and sweet. Also, you will hear in the video that Attorney Michael telling Romaine, Vincent Nardone the head Detective who use to work for NJ Transit as A Collision Reconstructionist is going to take care of everything because he works with the gentleman all of the time. 

In the video, you are going to hear Attorney Michael Tuzzio is going to ask Mike Booker if there was a video on NJ Transit bus and Mike going to say, Yes, Coach has it. Do you know during the investigation the videotape on the NJ Transit bus 709 turn up missing? This is corruption at its best.





It is the lawyer should be taken an oath. Can you imagine the legal system we would have if the lawyers will take that oath? I am sure these lawyers are sleeping easy by keeping these reckless bus drivers on the road.

The lawyers for NJ Transit and Coach USA bus companies are assassinating these innocent victims character who was killed in vain by their hired dangerous bus drivers.


At the end of the day, the lawyer just needs to tell the truth because the cover-up makes everything worst.

Deshon' s Mother Speaking at People's Organization for Progress about Coach USA Murder Her Son



The new evidence shows that Romaine had multiple opportunities to observe safety requirements that would have avoided injuring Deshon. Romaine deliberately and callously ignored all of those opportunities. Even when he admits he thought he ran over something with the bus as he straightened out from the turn – which was likely the fatal impact with the rear wheel when the bus impacted Deshon’s head, Romaine callously and indifferently refused to stop the bus –when safe bus operation required him to stop. Instead, he continued down the road until the shouts from other passengers caused him to stop. Romaine operated the bus; Romaine should be prosecuted for vehicular homicide or manslaughter. I also believe that Deshon’s case needs to be thoroughly reinvestigation due to conflict of interest and bias. The prosecutor allowed this killer to walk away from Deshon’s death a free man. Coach USA still has Romaine driving the bus as of today. If they are covering up Desho's case. How many other people cases the Justice system is covering up? They did the same thing to Deshon's friend Christian Nobel Ross who also was killed by Coach USA dangerous bus driver. These thugs and wicked people had assisted my Deshon's character. Is it because he is an Afro-American young man. From what was told to me by Deshon's Attorney that was a lot of racism dealing with his case.

I Their Any Race, or Discrimination When It Comes to Scholarship:?

Race, Scholarships, and Discrimination


The U.S. Department of Justice is threatening to sue Southern Illinois University to block three paid fellowships for minority and female graduate students, saying the university uses race and gender as factors in awarding graduate student fellowships. Commentator Clarence Page argues that when it comes to giving out scholarships, discrimination is nearly always a factor.
The debate over racial preferences in educational institutions has flared up again following a government investigation of Southern Illinois University. The Department of Justice says the university uses race and gender as factors in awarding graduate student fellowships. The Justice Department contends this is a violation of Title 7 of the Civil Rights Act. But commentator Clarence Page points out that when it comes to giving out scholarships, preferences are nearly always a factor.
CLARENCE PAGE:
The Justice Department is threatening to sue Southern Illinois University over three paid fellowships for minority and female graduate students. The government says the fraternities discriminate against, quote, "white, non-preferred minorities and males," unquote. That's a narrow way of looking at the fellowships, the university argues, and I think the university has a point.
In 2003, the Supreme Court said the University of Michigan and other colleges can consider race in college admissions decisions, but only among other factors, and that each applicant must be evaluated individually. That's fair. Besides, as far back as anyone can remember, there have been scholarships and fellowships limited to various groups, some of which are pretty, shall we say, surprising.
For example, on one collegiate Web site called FinAid or F-I-N-A-I-D.com, I found $1,000 scholarships for students who happen to be left-handed. There are scholarships for twins and scholarships for triplets. There's a $500 scholarship for students who happen to be obese, and there's a scholarship for little people who must be 4'10" or less and a scholarship for tall people. Female applicants must be at least 5'10" and males 6'2". There's even a scholarship for just average people.
Late-night star David Letterman at his alma mater, Ball State University, offers his scholarship for students with mediocre grades but high creativity. My kind of students. Then there's the appropriately named Zolp Scholarship at Loyola University in Chicago, which offers full tuition to Catholic students whose last name happens to be Zolp, Z-O-L-P. First-name Zolps need not apply. But anyone named Scarpinato, whether by birth or by marriage, can apply for the scholarship of the same name at Texas A&M. Other colleges, even Harvard, offer hope if your name is Baxendale, Hudson, Bayer, Downer or Bright--and you're bright enough. And it's hard to count all the schools that award preferential treatment to the children and grandchildren of alumni. Some of them even end up in the White House.
Despite the political fireworks they generate, scholarships or fellowships for women or minorities don't really affect very many students, especially compared to the damage done by government tightwads. The Senate, for example, approved a deficit reduction bill in November that would damage millions of students. The bill would scale back federal student loans by almost $10 billion to fund other budget programs. So while one branch of government claims to be watching out for white and male students, another branch is putting the screws to almost all college students, regardless of race or gender. It doesn't take a scholar to figure that out.
