Investivoq AI Summary
Van Drew responds to court ruling: Rep. Jefferson Van Drew said he was reacting to a judge’s decision ordering the pretrial release of Lucio Lopez-Perez, who is charged in a drunk-driving crash that seriously injured Middle Township Police Officer Austin Kapurelos. The release order was later stayed, keeping Lopez-Perez in county custody until his next court date.
ICE custody sought: Van Drew said he is “demanding” that local authorities cooperate with ICE because Lopez-Perez has an active detainer. He said he wants Lopez-Perez transferred to federal custody when state detention ends and then handled through the legal process.
