In some cases, registration is required in advance, and can be completed online at the library website’s Upcoming Events list.

FREEHOLD – A Long Branch man was sentenced to six years in New Jersey State Prison as a result of a plea to the first degree crime of strict liability for drug induced death. The charges stem from an overdose death that took place this past February in Tinton Falls, announced Monmouth County Prosecutor Christopher J. Gramiccioni.
Lateef Reevey, 31, of Long Branch, was sentenced on February 17, 2021 by Monmouth County Superior Court Judge Lourdes Lucas to six years New Jersey State Prison subject to the No Early Release Act (N.E.R.A.). Pursuant to N.E.R.A., Reevey will be required to serve 85% of his sentence before becoming eligible for parole. Reevey also received a five year term in New Jersey State Prison for an unrelated charge of conspiracy to possess a controlled dangerous substance, which will run concurrent to the strict liability charge.
