"Behind Bars: Do Police Unions Hold the Key to Justice? "

Thursday, September 12, 2024

Praise for Ron Charles, the director of Essex County Correctional Facility in Newark, NJ, comes from the State Policemen's Benevolent Association Local 382, which represents over 600 correctional police officers. They have expressed support and confidence in Charles' leadership, citing his dedication, knowledge, and expertise.

However, the New Jersey Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 106, which represents supervisors in the Essex County Department of Corrections, has issued a "no confidence" vote in the county and prison administration, including Charles. They cite several issues as the reason for their vote, including unpaid training, improper promotions, questionable deals with outside companies, and illegal audio surveillance.
