A New Jersey woman who was arrested at gunpoint and spent two weeks in a jail for someone else’s parole violation cannot sue the U.S. Marshals and police officers who detained her, an appeals court ruled last week.
Judith Maureen Henry, now 74, was held five years ago at the Essex County jail and at two jails in Pennsylvania, on a decades-old parole violation, according to a federal lawsuit Henry filed in 2020.
The warrant, which included Henry’s home address and driver’s license photo, was forwarded to officials in New Jersey and she was arrested at her Newark home on Aug. 22, 2019, by local officers and members of the U.S. Marshals Service.

New Jersey offers tax incentives to get a new Sixers arena in Camden

From Philly and the Pa. suburbs to South Jersey and Delaware, what would you like WHYY News to cover? Let us know!
New Jersey is making a push to lure the Philadelphia 76ers to Camden with millions of dollars in tax credits as team owners pursue constructing their own arena.
First reported by ROI-NJ, a letter sent to Sixers ownership from the New Jersey Economic Development Authority and signed by Gov. Phil Murphy said they are “committed to bringing the 76ers to Camden.”
“We envision a multi-billion dollar privately-led comprehensive mixed-use development north of the Ben Franklin Bridge that would serve as a transformative catalyst for Camden and New Jersey,” the letter released Monday said. “Anchored by a world-class arena, we believe that this project will enable development of significant residential, commercial, and retail offerings within the City of Camden. We also recognize the importance of incorporating open space and pedestrian-friendly amenities into this potential game-changing development project for our state.”
The pitch promises $400 million in tax credits to build the arena and “transform” nearby residential and retail at the site of the former Riverfront State Prison, just north of the Ben Franklin Bridge and Rutgers University–Camden.
New Jersey’s effort comes just days after Philadelphia city officials released four independent reports that found a new arena in Center City would likely hurt small businesses in neighboring Chinatown and cause traffic congestion in the area.

2024 SBLive Football Top 25 New Jersey high school football rankings
Yes, we know. Starting off the rankings with an 0-1 team might be odd, but when you lose to one of the top teams in the country (IMG Academy), things are a little different.

We really like what the Spartans have been building with quarterback Derek Zammit at the helm. DePaul Catholic kicked things off with a 47-15 dismantling of Pope John XXIII.
Being able to smack around a solid Iona Prep team from New York was an impressive start for the Green Wave. Quarterback Jadon Prinzivalli threw for 337 yards and four touchdowns.
Jack Moran was a player possessed in a 42-38 victory over Mt. Carmel of Chicago last week. The senior completed 18-of-27 passes for 517 yards and five touchdowns.
The Thunderbolts will be testedin the next couple of games versus Atlantic City and Mainland Regional.
One of the most impressive teams last week was the Hermits, who cruised to a 35-6 victory over Donovan Catholic.
The Pirates needed less than 200 yards of offense to defeat Union 34-0 in the opening week.
I mean, how much can we ding the Green Knights in a 31-21 loss to nationally ranked St. Frances Academy (Maryland)? A Week 2 meeting with Seton Hall is one of the top games on the slate.
The Ironmen went on the road to Ohio and fell 21-7 to Archbishop Hoban. This week they face Red Bank Catholic.
Karon Ali rushed for 118 yards and scored a touchdown in a 21-0 win over Montclair.
Red Bank Catholic has a chance to move up the rankings this week when they faceNo. 9 Don Bosco Prep.
The Mariners opened things up with a dominat 31-2 win over Downingtown East. We think Week 3 will be a test against Point Pleasant Boro.
Mahki Brunson led the balanced offensive attack in Week 1 with 239 yards and four touchdowns.
It was a strong start to the season for Panthers as they rolled to a 49-7 rout of Steinert to open 2024.
Already with a couple wins under their belt, the Chimeras big test won’t come until Oct. 4th against Timber Creek Regional.
The Crusaders begin their season this week on the road against Woodstown.
The Chiefs have a tough stretch of games ahead with St. Augustine Prep, Mainland Regional, Atlantic City and Shawnee coming up.
One of the teams opening up the ‘Battle at the Beach’ series was Mustangs, who defeated Atlantic City 30-18. Next up is Hammonton.
The Trojans fell 38-26 to Mount St. Joseph (Maryland) in he Mid-Atlantic Pigskin Classic. Now they set their sights on Lincoln this week.
The Lions end up starting at No. 20 after a 47-15 loss to No. 2 DePaul Catholic. They’ll have a chance to bounce bck versus No. 21 (see below) Paramus Catholic.
Xavier Williams led the Paladins with 240 yards and two touchdowns in a 48-47 win over St. Peter’s Prep last week.
The Pioneers barely pulled off a 21-20 win over Hillsborough last week and take on Cranford in Week 2.

NORTH JERSEY, NJ — Go outside and eat! Or dine in as the weather gets colder. New restaurants have sprouted around North Jersey. Want to give your kid (or teacher friend) a break at the start of school? Here are five new restaurant to try.
Mr. G’s Diner

Items include diner favorites such as wings, sandwiches, breakfast dishes, and desserts — along with oxtails, loaded fries, and chicken and waffles. The landmark was built in 1940 under the name Pickering’s Grill. Civil rights activist Russell “G” Graddy bought the building in 2008. Find out more about it here.
Faubourg
Faubourg, on the Weehawken waterfront near two new hotels, opened to the public Thursday, Aug. 22. It features unique cocktails, small plates, meals, and desserts with a French flair. The location opened at a growing waterfront neighborhood near the West New York border, with several developments. They’re also located near a Port Imperial ferry stop. The flagship location is in Montclair. Fauboug is located at 1100 Avenue at Port Imperial, just south of two hotels: the Residence Inn and Envue. Read all about it here.
Nékter
The Southern California-based franchise Nékter, founded in 2010, just opened its first New Jersey location in Wayne. Nékter Juice Bar is located at 1591 Alps Road in a commercial plaza called The Yard, which also has Crumbl Cookies, European Wax Center, GNC, OHM Fitness, and District Taco.

Dave’s Hot Chicken
Dave’s Hot Chicken, a spicy chicken chain, opened its newest location in Kearny, in Hudson County. The chain started in a parking lot in East Hollywood, and became so popular it made Drake want to invest. Items on the menu include chicken sandwiches, tenders, sliders, macaroni and cheese, fries, loaded shakes, and more. Dave’s is located at 175 Passaic Ave., Suite 12 B, Kearny. Find out more here.
Indian Spice Rave by Raja Jhanjee
This eatery actually opened earlier this year in Ridgewood, but it just announced “many more changes” on the way. After a popular Indian restaurant, Bukhara Grill in New York City, closed during the pandemic, the owner’s son has opened the sequel, Indian Spice Rave, at 37 Chestnut St. in Ridgewood. It’s taken over the space that was Delhi Accent. The North Indian restaurant serves up “signature specialties from the northwest frontier of India” including Tandoor grilled kebabs and the “famous” Dal Bukhara. It also includes some signature dishes from the old Delhi Accent menu. And the original New York City eatery just said they plan to make a “triumphant return.” Find out more here.
