-several people got wasted and the ambulance showed up for someone
Despite the massive crowd, all in all from the footage it actually looked like a relatively tame party. I've saw more carnage in college at fraternity parties.
Alpine went for Hillary but by less of a margin than the state as a whole. If it's any consolation, if people contract COVID19 they'll bring it back to NYC.
Apparently this house party rental is a thing now.
There was just that one in LA where a woman was killed. Same scenario...crowds , drugs, alcohol, loud music, exclusive nabe.
The LA one was hosted by gangstahs.
The poor neighbors!
Interesting. From your link....
However, this isn’t the first promoted party at the luxurious home. Last month, an event called BikiniPalooza was held there. Neighbors say they’ve lived next to a party house all summer. This one asked us to conceal his identity.
“We’ve witnessed a night club being operated from the backyard of an Alpine house,” one neighbor who asked to remain anonymous told NBC New York. “I’ve been to Vegas a number of times and this is like a pool party that they throw there.”
Various agencies are now looking closely at the party promoters—one already advertising another party at the house this upcoming weekend.
The homeowner is listed as New Jersey personal injury lawyer Joseph LaBarbera. NBC New York reached him by phone and he said “no comment” before hanging up.
Addressing the investigation on Monday, Gov. Murphy said, “Based on the description, there was close congregation and not a lot of face covering, if any. If in fact people are busted and there was a promoted party, that’s not gonna end well.”
Murphy on Monday also announced he’s reducing the limit on indoor gatherings to 25% percent capacity, with a cap of 25 people down from 100. He said too many indoor house parties have led to trends creeping in the wrong direction.
And the caps have lead to the house parties. Get rid of the caps. Get rid of the house parties. Reducing to 25 when it was at 100 makes it worse.
Hmmmm, interesting party. After seeing the video, I bet I know why it wasn’t raided.
