I wonder how long that woman will stick around while he rots in jail. Maybe she will get charged too for assisting in criminal behavior. That way they should both be ready to hook back up when they get out.
This will be the latest spectacle the masses crave.

Even the current charge is a bit over the top and can probably be beaten if he chooses to, though defending it will be a lot more expensive than just paying it. I guess the main consideration would be whether or not he'll be branded with a criminal record.
Here is the NJ statute for defiant trespass:
1. No actual communication because the guard was nowhere to be found. Furthermore, he could argue that the absence of a guard made him think it was okay to go where he was going.Quote:
b. Defiant trespasser. A person commits a petty disorderly persons offense if, knowing that he is not licensed or privileged to do so, he enters or remains in any place as to which notice against trespass is given by:
(1) Actual communication to the actor; or
(2) Posting in a manner prescribed by law or reasonably likely to come to the attention of intruders; or
(3) Fencing or other enclosure manifestly designed to exclude intruders.
2. Defense can argue signage was inadequate.
3. Queue ropes are not designed to exclude intruders, only to direct people in an orderly fashion.
Any idea if they've made any changes to this area since the incident? I read that there are now two guards posted there, but are there more DO NOT ENTER signs or anything?

There are signs up for no entry, There are a lot more but there were signs.

Stanchions are used to control the flow also removable barriers need to be placed for fire code reasons.

Another blowhard in the tradition of Peter King. These guys just love to hear themselves talk.
