Once again, a NJ judge shows how ignorant and intolerant they are of any law they don't like.
It seems as though there is very little vetting involved in the nomination and assignment of these people. Perhaps they have to mirror the ideology of those in power, to the exclusion of actual qualifications.
Case in point, what should have been a clearly seen LEOSA exemption from the draconian gun laws in NJ, took over three years to wend its way through the state appellate process, where they found the trial judge erred in her interpretation of LEOSA, stating she was tripped up by the intricacies of that law and erroneously relied on a Federal BOP memo for guidance.
Dana R. Johnson was convicted on unlawful possession of her Glock pistol and served three years in state prison, when the appellate decision was announced, she was already in a halfway house pending release.
Obviously, the judge is incompetent (tellingly the appellate court withheld her name).
Next question - why was she prosecuted; shouldn't the prosecutor know the law they are charging her with?
Looks like lawsuit time, best of luck to Ms. Johnson
N.J. court wipes out gun conviction of federal officer over error by trial judge
