And we wonder why they agreed to meet in the parking lot , I think not to share a bucket of the Colonel's Extra Crispy.

Why was he just arrested now when this happened last April ?

Because arrest and indictment are not the same thing. The presentment to the Grand AJury is made sometime after the arrest and the Grand Jury returns an indictment or no bills it, There is a long lead time between arrest and indictment, although Morris County seems to be very long in processing their criminal matters and I believe that is because there is poliitical bickering over who shall be prosecutor.
I think they had a buy named Bianchi who was just not reappointed.
