It became known as "Lady-Gate." News of Lady-Gate began when Manalapan Township Committee "Lady" Michelle Roth, who would later lose her State Assembly campaign by near historic proportions, claimed women basically weren't safe when in direct proximity to Manalapan Police Chief Stu Brown.
Of course, it escalated from there. Now there's rumors of an "investigation" of Chief Brown and alleged handling of other women in Manalapan Town Hall. Interesting how for 29 years of his employment, there wasn't a blemish on his record - not a word on how women from Marlboro to diamond mines in Zimbabwe and South Africa and all points in-between should fear for their lives, as we were led to believe by some.
Manalapan's Township Committee, led by da Queen, wanted to even go as far as add what would have been a $$$$$$$ 6-figured salary person to act as a go-between between da Chief and another $$$$$$ 6-figure individual, Township Administrator Tara Tiara.
In da end, it appears it was Brown who sought an end to this - to this chapter - as da township was spending even more $$$$$$$$$$ on lawyers fees.
Now, of course you can't go to da bathroom in Manalapan Town Hall it seems without a conspiracy theory. Manalapan's spin zone blames -- and gee what a shocker this is -- da Mosked Man for everything going on here. Da Asbury Park Press says that da lawyer Bitterman made da offer to "step down from the case during Thursday's court proceedings because he thought attorney Stuart Moskovitz, who is representing the chief in a separate, ongoing age-discrimination lawsuit against the township, interfered with Bitterman's ability to counsel the chief toward reaching a settlement."
Now, before you go believing what you might read on da so-called "Hate" website, this case isn't over. While da Chief will accept a one day suspension, and attend a session for a day, which is not in any way an admission of guilt - both days are days he will receive his full salary for!!! He isn't getting docked even one cent's pay!!!!
Why did he do this???
He did this because it isn't costing him anything - in fact, he basically gets a day off with pay out of it -- but for him, it also ends this small chapter in da story, and from da looks of it, at least for da moment slow da meter from running all over da wallots of da taxpayers of Manalapan.
How much has "Lady-Gate" cost Manalapan taxpayers for legal bills???
So far, low estimates have this bill at between $15-16,000, and da clock is still ticking. It will go even higher, because what da Mnalapan Township Committee could not do is come to a settlement in da Chief's age discrimination claim, which will go forward.
Why will it go forward?
Because da judge in da case tossed out da Manalapan Legal Dream Team's argument that da Chief's case was a frivolous one and had no merit, meaning obviously there was more than enough merit for it to go forward!
According to what da Asbury Park Press wrote, da Manalapan Legal Dream Team lawyer argued that a prior incident, and Tara Tiara's claim was good enough. Da problem here, and any 1st year tort lawyer would see this, is that da "prior incident" was one that da Chief was da one who submitted da claim, and Tara Tiara's "investigation" was not admissible as well since there was no detail about it.
FYI - da Tara Tiara "investigation" could come back to haunt Manalapan Township and da Queen and Tara Tiara, because it appears da Chief was never given a RICE notice as per da law, meaning he never knew he was even being investigated for claims he never knew about from people he may or may not even know! That's something that could be traced right back to Tara Tiara, because she's da Township Administrator and da direct superior of da Chief in Manalapan's pecking order of personnel!!!!!
Now, let's see what your nearly $16,000 YOU DA TAXPAYER has spent has gotten for you:
1. A one-day all-expenses paid suspension for da chief that YOU WILL PAY FOR, valued at about $575.00 before taxes!
2. A one-day all-expenses-paid "counseling" course that da chief will be paid for, also valued at about $575.00 before taxes THAT YOU WILL PAY FOR!!
3. Da Chief didn't even have to plead guilty to anything -- he only had to admit he "raised his voice" during a meeting!!!
4 So far, about $15,800 in legal bills THAT YOU ARE PAYING FOR!!!!
So, let's recap:
*** Da Chief still gets full-pay for his extra day off - and gets full-pay to attend a "counseling" session for "raising his voice." And, da discrimination case he has against Manalapan Township, Tara Tiara and da Queen still continues!!!!!
*** I guess for folks like da Queen, Tara, da Commissar and their supporters, that's money well spent -- expect it's not their money --- IT'S YOURS!!!!!
*** And yes, da meter is still running here.
DaTruth is, this deal was da best possible deal for Chief Brown. He basically gets two days off WITH FULL PAY, and his discrimination case against Tara Tiara and da Queen will continue! Yes, he does get a small one-liner on his personnel record, but at his age and years of experience, does that really matter? Will that really be a detriment to him?? Will he not get a pension because of it??? Does it tarnish him even da slightest???? Basically, YOU DA TAXPAYER have and are paying still for another Gang of Three sponsored witch hunt at taxpayer expense.
Now, those who guard your pursestrings, being da Queen and Tara Tiara and da Commissar, said they pursued action against da Chief to "protect da township from future lawsuits that could involve da chief's behavior toward other women, said da Asbury Park Press newspaper.
We can actually only hope and pray that da Tara Tiara and Queen's "Blue Ribbon Five Star Turn-over-all-rocks Inquisition-like Please-someone-find-evidence" Investigation (ALSO AT TAXPAYER EXPENSE) finds something against da Chief, because if not, not only will this completely exonerate da Chief, but it will be unbelievably costly to da Taxpayers who will have to foot one huge settlement check to da Chief for what they are putting him through --- and remember who da Chief's lawyer is --- Da Mosked Man, da arch-nemesis of da Queen, da Commissar and Tara Tiara.
Doesn't it sound more and more like politics as usual in Manalapan????
What will Ryan green do about this? How will he and Andy Boy vote on this once da Commissar is relieved of his township duties in January?? Will Andy Boy or da Queen be mayor and/or deputy mayor next year??? How much (and daTruthSquad believes da overall figure is already into six-figures) has Manalapan really spent on lawyers this year????
Many questions, not enough answers from township officials - and that's daTruth- da "Real" Truth.

how ridiculous is it that Michelle Roth is trying to save face by insisting the "settlement" say the chief was "suspended" when not only will he not lose any pay, but will not lose any time from work. He will be attending the eight hour counselling seminar on his day off for which he'll be paid, and the seminar will also be paid for by the township. In other words, no time lost, no pay lost, but Michelle wants to call that a suspension. Maybe Stu was against the settlement because he's not a fan of deceiving the taxpayers, something this administration is notorious for.
I love Roger McLaughlin's quote that Stu's "interference" with the case is the reason it wasn't settled months ago. Really? LOL. Stu wasn't brought into the case until about a month or two ago. Bitterman was the only attorney for the Chief when the township spent thousands of dollars for that ridiculous hearing before the Millburn administrator. And Roger wants to blame Stu for that? They just get more ridiculous every day.
I read the other blog and I was convinced Chief Brown was guilty and getting punished.
The I read this blog and come to discover not only is the Chief not guilty of anything other than "raising his voice" (which I do every day), but he also is getting his full pay and the real case is continuing.
That will be the last time I read the other blog. IMHO it is a propoganda sheet and nothing more. Now I understand why people call it a "Hate" blog.
Nice work Squad. This case is very complicated but you made it very easy to understand that AGAIN, WE MANALAPAN RESIDENTS GOT FLEECED FOR POLITICL VENDETTAS!
I can only pray now that someone comes in and investigates these clowns of mismanagement.
Does anyone post here whose tongue is not securely inserted in XXX XXXXXXXX?
The prior post sounds like someone who wouldn't know the truth if they fell over it during a drunken stupor.
So, what you're saying here is the Manalapan Township Committee spent $16,000 dollars on making sure Chief Brown gets two paid days off?
Maybe Roth and her stooges can just pay me $16,000, and I'll go to work for two days!
Thanks Michelle for the extra $16,000 in taxes I'll have to pay so you can chase vendettas around and pay for them WITH MY MONEY!
NOW MAYBE YOU UNDERSTAND WHY YOU LOST YOUR STATE ASSEMBLY ELECTION BY A LANDSLIDE!!!!!!!!!!!
YOU MAY BE ABLE TO FOOL SOME PEOPLE IN MANALAPAN, BUT NOT AN ENTIRE COUNTY.
Hey Komisar Klauber,
Now you know why you lost and are being kicked off the Manalapan Township Committee. You can thank Michelle Roth for losing your job.
Actually they both have Larry Roth to thank. After all, it was Larry who said "Because I Hate Italians". My guess is Michelle lost the Italian vote in the district by 5-1 or worse. Her association with the Manalapan Hate Website didn't help either. Nor was her association with a known SEC violator, and what can you say about Mayor Spodak. What a pathetic group.
Those Manalapan dream team lawyers are really good. The way they cave in and lose case after case, I wouldn't trustthem with a J-walking ticket.
It was complete nonsense like this that was the reason I could not vote for Roth in this past election. All she has done in office is keep letting her personal vendettas get in the way of professional conduct as an elected official. Her personal vendettas, tirades and hissy fits have cost me and all of the other taxpayers in Manalapan more than enough. As a Democrat and a taxpayer, I am glad she was so soundly defeated by a landslide. Hopefully she and others like her will learn from this.
Hey, Squad--
You endorsed Klauber and now you're celebrating his defeat? Sounds "hyporcritical" to me. You were better off when you were making up phony stories about the guy no one knows or care about, Fred Bone.
Dear DaTruthSquad,
You left out one very important term of the settlement (as did the Asbury Park Press), that upon successfully completing the one-day counseling class the disciplinary charges against the Chief will be WITHDRAWN by the town.
Squad, need to set some facts straight with you.
Maybe you did not know this but the part that you left out of your latest posting is...
Once Chief Stuart Brown completes his one day counseling class the Township of Manalapan will withdraw ALL disciplinary charges against him.
That is in the agreement that both parties signed.
The taxpayers of Manalapan had their pockets fleeced by Michelle Roth over a political vendetta!
The taxpayers need Roth to go. Time for a recall folks.
So, what you're saying is Roth and her vendetta minions spent $16,000 to give the Chief two days off with pay, then dismiss the charges outright, and must still face his discrimination lawsuit???????
This is truly the fleecing of Manalapan!!!!!!!!!!!!
Roth lost Manalapan big time when running for assembly. Lucas lost Manalapan big time when running for Freeholder. Didn Aaronson lose big too? Seems like if you rise to the top of Manalapan you are knocked down by the voters. Good job voters!!!!!!!!!!
I read the Hate website about the Chief Brown issue, and over there they make it seem like he's guilty and awaiting jail time. That's why I read this site, because it's where the real truth is.
Keep up the good work Squad.
How do you pay back attorneys that gave money to campaigns. Make up a lawsuit and then quit after that get the thousands you promised them.
Maybe at the next meeting, Spodak can walk in with seventy emails from the computer he doesn't have, from Chief Brown telling Michelle she doesn't have to apologize because it's all his fault. Then they can show gps coordinates for the chief's ips address and say it points exactly to the Chief's office, proving the emails are real, even though the coordinates are for Colts Neck.
Let's see--you like this site because it tells the truth, and the way you know that is that it was posted here anonymously. Love the logic.
Apparently, everyone reads the "hate site". That's what it's there for. Unbiased, opinions.....
Cud ya pleeeze put up mre info on this
Stoneham. Is he from the fambly that moved the giants baseball team from coogan's bluff to frisco? Also, how did he get inbyrubble witth the SEC for setting up actual companies to actually trade mutual funds--what I thowt was legal--while bernie madehoff was out there stealing real money?
Even if the "hate site IS biassed, people put their real names on the line, so that if anything there is a lie, I'm sure stu will sue their pants off and own their houses. C'mon stu, show what you got packed there!!
Or maybe this stoneham was modelling his bathrobe and slippers on a sales call to shoprite? He's a salesman, right?
you just posted five straight emails from Fred Stone. How do we know they're from Fred? Because everyone is juvenile and useless and designed to lower this forum to his level. He's already destroyed two other forums, the hate site and NJ.COM. You really don't need to let him destroy this one. He has a screw loose. He contributes nothing. We really don't need to be subjected to his insanity, do we?
The prior post makes a very good point. Nobody cares about this accused SEC violator. Nobody cares what he wears in supermarkets. Nobody cares whether he likes Stu or not. Nobody cares if he's for or against anti-pedophile laws. Don't let those losers at the HATE website shut this site down like they did NJ.com. This is the best forum in Monmouth County, and maybe even the state due to its Free Speech.
Amen KB.
Amen! I too want to hear more about how Stu fleeced Manalapan with his phonus-balonus lawsuits.
"Phonus Balonus???"
Let's see, wasn't it the Manalapan Township Committee who spent over $100,000 in taxpayer money on suing both Stu and the Squad from 2007 to 2009, only to be forced to drop the case when the Manalapan lawyer bailed out and nobody else would take the job no matter what Manalapan wanted to pay?
Wasn't it the Manalapan Township Committee who reneged on a settlement agreement with Stu, forcing the judge to drop the case, whereby allowing Stu to sue bot hthe town and other defendants because Manalapan could have blocked him from doing so but decided not to?
Wasn't it the Manalapan Township Committee who went after Chief Brown for "raising his voice," costing taxpayers $16,000 so far in legal bills and getting nothing for it, except giving the Chief two paid days off and nothing on his record about it?
Didn't the Manalapan Township Committee lawyers also lose to Old Bridge?
Yes, Roth sycophant and KB cronie. It's all Stu's fault. And KB's a great journalist too. And they have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.
The last I checked, the only lawsuit Stu ever brought against the Township was on behalf of the Chief, which is still ongoing, and was caused by Michelle and Klauber spending more time going after people than protecting the residents, and by Lucas not having the courage to do the right thing. That's it. One. Now, Gerry Ward, on the other hand, the grand muckymuck who pulls all the strings for the trolls who try to crash this site, KB, Spodak and Stone, and constantly rails about all of Stu's lawsuits, has sued the Township THREE times. His buddy Drew sued his own father, and his own business partner, and in turn has been in court several times for screwing the vendors and customers he has dealt with over the years, including the case in Rhode Island where federal the judge flat out called him a liar in his written opinion. And yet, here are the trolls talking about all of Stu's lawsuits. I'm still not sure why datruthsquad lets them lower the standards of this forum by posting their nonsense.
stu, don't you have anything useful to do other than to defend your litigiousness in anonymous comments on your own censored anonymous blog site?
Obviously Stu does have more useful things to do, Fred. That's why he doesn't waste his life away posting everywhere like you do. Since he was never suspended from practice, he doesn't have the time to post like you do. And he doesn't. And anyone who isn't mentally disturbed knows that, Fred. But then, they don't go into Shop Rite in their bathrobes, either.
I don't understand, Fred. The poster, whom you call Stu because you call your own mother Stu, made it pretty clear he's only representing one client against the Township and has never sued the Township on his own, while your puppet master Gerry Ward has sued the Township (and lost) three times. So how is Stu litigious? By the way, I know you never really were able to practice law and don't really know how this works, but a litigator is SUPPOSED to represent clients in litigation. Moron. You really have no self esteem, do you Fred. You don't care how much you embarrass yourself, do you? You're perfect for the Manalapan democrats. Like Spodak. You're easy to use. Neither of you have any pride, so you don't mind constantly making fools of yourself whenever Gerry orders you to.
It's easy to see how the democrats got destroyed in Manalapan. Who is the face of the democratic party? George Spodak, Fred Stone, Michelle Roth and Drew Shapiro. Decent people in Manalapan don't want to have anything to do with a party like that. The Democratic party had better do something about these people being its image or it's going to be another run like it was in the eighties and nineties where the democratics couldn't win ANYTHING. As I recall, that two decade run started in 1983 when Spodak was mayor, didn't it?
You bring up a very interesting point re: the Democrats in Manalapan.
When Spodak and his gang were in charge, the town turned Republican and stayed that way because they saw what they were dealing with. It was around 1999-2000 when there was an influx of new residents, mostly Democrats, that the tide changed to Democratic control. Interesting how when in 2004 when Roth weaseled her way onto the TC that the very same year two Republicans won. Interesting too how with her back in power, the people voted her down for a state job by historic landslide proportions.
People see what she really is, and her friends too.
be careful,im sure some guy who doesnt own a computer is counting threads right now.once he positions the latitude with the longitude,he will reveal the bloggers on this site.i know this because this weekend while walking thru the englishtown auction,i over heard a portly fellow( a croos between porky pig and barney rubble)asking a vendor where he could purchase a flux capacitor.
HE MEANS BUSINESS!!!!!!
I got a flux capacitor for sale. Just have to sign a legal document to never set foot in Manalapan again! Shapiro, Ward, Mcenerny, Roth, Aaronson, Lucas, Klauber, Lovrich, Spodak... Any takers?
When just when is Lady Roth going to remove her (losing) campaign signs from Tennent Road adjacent from Four Seasons... People are tired of looking at them and hope she reminds her puppets that there are plenty all over Marlboro and Freehold...
Remove the trash, please...
Isn't there a deadline after an election that all signage must be removed... Well Lady Roth ~ get movin'....
I was amazed to find that all the Republican signs were gone the morning after the election. Did they go out and pick them up on the night of the election?
I find it amazing that Kurley Kue Kathy Baratta is looking for someone to take over her "Hate Site"....
Simply amazing ~ what did she finally realize that she's not supporting a winning team...
Losers ~ every last one of them...
Spodak, Roth, Shapiro, Ward, Baratta, Stone, and let's not forget Little Larry Roth who absolutely, positively cannot deal with his Lady's election loss...
Isn't it interesting how now after the election is over and her desired candidate lost by a historic landslide, she is now offering to sell the HATE website.
I'd give her 2 cents for it, but I know I'd be way over-paying for it.
I hope she doesn't sell the hate website. If she does, then there's going to be 3 or 4 people who won't have anything to do with their lives anymore.
LOL. Good one Stoney.
If anyone buys her website, let me know. My garage has a couple of containers of recyclables that I'm sure they would be interested in also. Maybe if Kathy left her website at the curb, someone would pick it up and try to sell it at the Englishtown Auction.
if she sells the website, then all those losers will have to come here to post. then we're really screwed, because they'll confuse our BS by throwing some facts around.
I can't wait to read what the DTS is going to have to say about Kathy's garage sale.
