Ruben Scolavino Blasts Sheriff Golden for Pension Scam at Accreditation Hearing

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Monmouth County Democratic Candidate for Sheriff Ruben Scolavino went on the offensive this Monday, calling out Republican Sheriff Shaun Golden for rubber stamping the Sheriff Department’s accreditation while a pension scam investigation still lingers.

Ruben Scolavino
The Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement held a public information session where they took comments from residents as a part of their on-site assessment of the Monmouth County Sheriff’s Department.

Mr. Scolavino’s statement before the commission addressed the long standing problem of pension fraud that has resulted in a still open investigation. Scolavino blasted Golden for changing several high ranking officers’ job titles, without any real change in their responsibilities, in order to allow their continued receipt of salaries - as well as a pension.

By simultaneously receiving a salary and pension, employees Donovan, Freeman, and Dawson received a total of $245,000, $151,000, and $184,000.

"Sheriff Shaun Golden has rigged the system so that employees could collect a salary while still collecting a pension. He has abused Monmouth County taxpayers and needs to be held accountable." said Scolavino. Mr. Scolavino urged the Commission to withhold accreditation pending the results of the ongoing investigation.

Scolavino said, “Shaun Golden has failed to meet the high standards set by the Commission. His behavior has cost the taxpayers hundreds of thousands of dollars and eroded their trust in his leadership.”
