As if all of the crap in Ocean Township wasn’t enough, now they’ve uncovered a pirated CD ring in town. Though it’s not an underage boozefest, the simple act of using one’s eyes brought this situation to light. From the Atlanticville:

Sgt. Tom Burke noticed what he believed to be counterfeit music CDs on display and for sale at the American Way Food Store in the Town Shopping Center on Route 35 and West Park Avenue

So there you have it - when the police in this town actually look at something other than college students, you may actually have some good police work take place! Let’s recap the hilarity that is Ocean Township, shall we?

• Underage drinking taking place all over town
• Pirated CDs being sold in a township store
• Poor planning in senior development leaves them underwater during storm
• Greedy developer robs large portion of Ocean Township’s property value
• Child predator on the loose, tries to lure young girl to his car
• Cars being robbed during the night
• Drug trade growing in the township
• Deadbeat landlords abusing year-round residents
• Summer tourists disrupting entire sections of town for 4 months out of the year

And these folks are constantly harping on college students who move into the township? Doesn’t a growing drug trade and robbery warrant more police focus than a couple of young adults moving into what have always been “college houses?” You would think so, right?

But this is Ocean Township…where for 8 months out of the year - despite all of the problems listed above - college students are public enemy #1.
