Do you have a story that needs investigating? Let us know.TRENTON, N.J. -- More than 200 New Jersey police officers went through three hours of retraining in Trenton on Thursday after they attended a controversial conference in Atlantic City. Attorney General Matt Platkin said retraining was needed because the 2021 Street Cop Training conference taught inaccurate and offensive lessons.
In addition to providing legal training on the Fourth Amendment and on the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination, the attendees heard from three members of the Jersey Four — Rayshawn Brown, Jermaine Grant, and Danny Reyes — who recalled how, in 1998, they were traveling on the New Jersey Turnpike on their way to a college in North Carolina, hoping to pursue their dreams of playing college basketball, when they were pulled over without cause by two New Jersey state troopers.
