The Crane Brothers Looking to Make another Easy Money Score Against the Catholic Church, on the Backs of the Faithful Catholics Who Support the Church.

Twin brothers Tom an Bill Crane are either two of the most unluckiest brothers, or consummate con-artists looking to make another easy money score against the Catholic Church claiming that they were sexually abused.

One payoff was not enough for the Crane brothers whom were part of a settlement of 5 million dollars divided by 12 different plaintiffs and their attorneys when the Crane brothers claimed that a Priest from St. Joseph’s Roman Catholic Church in Mendham New Jersey molested them.

Now remarkably these two brothers are now claiming that two other priests molested them when they were living with their Father, an administrator and teacher at the prestigious Delbarton Catholic pre-school in Morris Township.  Of all of the tens-of-thousands of young men who have been educated by the great Benedictine monks from Delbarton these two unlucky men were abused by not only monks at that school, but at their local parish.  These two brothers claimed that the abuse occurred over thirty-years ago, but told no one, including there Father who worked there as a teacher and administrator.

One would need the help of a quantum computer (not yet invented), to finger out the miniscule likelihood of such abuse to have occurred by three separate Priest, at two different locations, when these two brother were growing up, while not telling anyone.

It is time that the Catholic Church and its religious orders put an end to monetary payouts to these so-called, “abused” scam artists and fight them in court to expose their lies and incredible stories, such as the one concocted by the Crane brothers.  Otherwise there will be no end to these scam artists looking to the Church for a quick payoff on the backs of the millions of faithful Catholics who give their hard earned money every Sunday to the Church which they love and respect, and which has withstood the test of time and history for 2000 years.

Law Providing Superior Court Judges To Now Waive or Reduce Parole Ineligibility or Grant Probation for Drug-Free School Zone Offenses Under Certain Circumstances.


Being charged with a CDS offense in New Jersey is serious, and the possibility of being sentenced to jail even for the first offender is a possibility.  However, recent case law has made it easier for the sentencing judge to now waive some of the previously mandatory sentencing provisions.

N.J.S.A. 2C:35-7 provides that upon conviction of a 1000 foot school zone offense the sentencing court most sentence the offender to a period of incarceration with a period of parole ineligibility from between 1/3 to ½ of the sentence imposed, or one year which ever is greater.  However, this statute has been amended to permit the trial judge to sentence a person convicted of a drug school offense to waive the mandatory sentence if the court determines that a number of favorable factors are present which weight against the imposition of sentence.  In the event that some or all of these factors are present the court may waive or reduce or the period of parole ineligibility or even sentence the defendant to a period of probation.  Said considerations include: (1) defendant’s prior criminal record and seriousness of the offense; (2) specific location within the school zone and whether any children were present; and, (3) whether school was in session.  The court cannot waive the mandatory jail and parole ineligibility if the defendant used or threatened violence, was in possession of a firearm, or committed a violation of subsection b. of N.J.S.A. 2C:29-2.

If you are charged with a school drug offense or any or drug offense in New Jersey you are advised to immediately seek the counsel of a competent and vigorous criminal trial narcotics attorney and the Law Office of Vincent J. Sanzone, Jr.  For 21 years Mr. Sanzone has successfully defended many individuals charged with serious.

Police use of the Phenolphthalein Test a/k/a Kastle-Meyer Test to Determine the presence of Blood Not Admissible in New Jersey.

On May 13, 2011 the Appellate Division in State v. Pittman ruled that Phenolphthalein Test, a/k/a Kastle-Meyer Test is inadmissible to prove the presence of blood.

In this case a police detective took a cotton swap from the defendant’s clothing to determine whether the defendant’s cloths had the presence of blood. The Court ruled that there is no evidence that this test was generally accepted in the scientific community. Accordingly, although this test is useful tool in a preliminary investigation of the presence of blood, such a test is not admissible in court, without the testimony of an expert witness by the state. Although some states have allowed the admissible of this test it is based on specific jury instructions which concede that false positives can be triggered by potatoes, rust, bleach, red beet and tomatoes, as well as other common substances.

For a full discussion of this test by the State Police Forensic Laboratory go to:
