press release September 5, 2014

Wayne E. Faber’s drunk driving conviction, which resulted from him colliding with the car of a pregnant woman after drinking and driving on his birthday, was affirmed today (9/5) by a state appeals court.

 Faber (DOB 12/22/86) , of Malaga NJ, had been out celebrating before the crash at Routes 40 and 47 in Franklin Twp. NJ, where he failed to obey a yield sign and drove away afterward. The other driver in the two-car collision, a woman who was pregnant, reported his vehicle registration number to police. He was apprehended at his residence and told an officer he left the scene because it would have been \”my second drinking and driving.\” His .13 breath test exceeded the legal limit for alcohol in his circulatory system.

 Jason I. Hughes (DOB 7/14/87) was denied a requested reduction in his $50,000 bail today (9/5) on charges that he was carrying a rifle and 337 rounds of ammunition during an 8/27/14 visit to his ex-wife’s residence in Glassboro, in defiance of a restraining order.

 Although the homeless former Millville resident was carrying the Ruger SR 556 unassembled in a bag, \”I can’t think of a reason why you would bring an assault weapon to visit your wife when you have a restraining order,\” Superior Court Judge Robert P. Becker Jr. said in refusing to alter Hughes’ bail.

 Noting that Hughes also was also illegally carrying several 10-round ammunition magazines, Assistant Gloucester County Prosecutor Vincent Malfitano said his office \”has very strong objections\” to a bail reduction.

 Hughes’ lawyer, Rebecca Donnarumma, said her client made no threats at his former spouse’s home and argued that transporting a weapon that was not ready to fire was \”a little less scary a situation.\”
