LAKEWOOD, NJ Friday was the third day of an ongoing FBI investigation in Lakewood Township related to medical equipment, but officials are still not even confirming the existence of the action.
It started Wednesday when over one dozen agents showed up at Lakewood Industrial Park warehouse.
WEDNESDAY
Agents showed up at a warehouse at approximately 4:30 pm located at 1980 Swarthmore Avenue. The warehouse of Deco-Tile was where the agents were entering and exiting, later some were seen bringing out boxes of medical supplies. No visible arrests were made. We contact the FBI Newark office who declined to comment about the case. When asked to confirm an earlier report on the Lakewood Scoop to see if the investigation was a case of mistaken identity, the agency seemed surprised by the question but refused to answer, suggesting it was not.
FBI press spokesperson Patty Hartman, of the Newark field office, declined to offer details of the investigation.
THURSDAY
On Thursday, the FBI returned to Lakewood, this time at an industrial park building located at 155 Oberlin in the morning hours. It was at this operation that it was learned that the FBI was looking into large quantities of protective medical masks. Agents loaded at least four box trucks full of medical masks.
At Governor Murphys daily COVID-19 press conference, Governor Phil Murphy acknowledged the FBI investigation in Lakewood.
Because it looks like a law enforcement matter, we wont have much to say, Governor Phil Murphy said regarding the two days of FBI and Department of Justice raids against Lakewood businesses. U.S. Attorney and FBI are both involved and Im sure our Attorney General will also be involved.
FRIDAY
FBI agents were once again spotted in Lakewood, this time at a residential home in the vicinity of New Hampshire Avenue and Oak Street to investigate a report of a residential homeowner with a large supply of medical equipment and masks in a garage.
To date, no visible arrests have been made and it appears the investigation is ongoing. Neither the Lakewood Police, Ocean County Sheriffs Department, New Jersey Attorney General, or the FBI have publicly commented on the events transpiring in the township as of yet.

As one chapter in the FBIs history opens, another has apparently come to a close as former disgraced Toms River Regional Schools superintendent Michael Ritacco has been released from prison, nearly two years ahead of schedule.
Lakewood has become the home of a huge criminal conspiracy, and not by the FBI.
Interesting.
Why are the Feebs there? Is hording PPE a federal crime? Or maybe they were selling this stuff across state lines?
Or maybe the Feebs just needed a good news story after the Flynn news.
All those agents need to be arrested for violating the social distancing radius.
“Are the FIBs investigating, or covering something up? “
Good question. The part of the article where several agents entered and then carrying out boxes reminds me of the scene in Eastwood’s Richard Jewel movie where they cleaned that poor guys home out. They literally ruined that guy’s life.
And Ruby Ridge and Waco come to mind. In particular Waco where the oddball they really wanted could have been peacefully arrested anytime he went to town for supplies. Instead they laid siege military style to innocent women and children and burned them to death. Netflix has a pretty good movie about this subject.
Fast forward to today and their collusion with the intelligence services to oust Trump. And then there’s the hatchet job of Gen Flynn.
Seriously, if you had a problem that required the FBI to investigate it, would you just live with the problem or have the FBI come in? To me it would be like a Holocaust prisoner going to the Gestapo to complain about how bad the SS was treating you.
Gov Murphy has turned a blind eye, too. Heck, there was an article posted just this week that the mayor of Lakewood helped in the planning of one of the weddings! Apparently, the fact of 5 or 6 dead Rabbis in the last month or so from COVID-19 isn't enough to deter their behavior. And, as expected - just as with charges of racism - the defense is to pull out the anti-semitism card.
These are Hasidim, correct?
It wasn’t me. I wasn’t there. I promise.
Yes. There have a few charges. Defense Production Act violation.

They probably just ran out and needed to replenish their personal supplies. ;-(
Ever-changing quantities of masks in Houston, New Jersey, Miami, Los Angeles and other U.S. cities, along with cities in Canada and the UK, have been discovered. One lead reflected that 43 million masks were available in New Jersey in the same time-frame that federal and state leaders were saying in press conferences that they were scouring the globe for masks. But the masks in New Jersey, along with many million more, didnt go to any domestic buyer. Instead, according to the broker, they were all purchased by foreign buyers. Most of the masks are leaving the country. And the price can go for $6 a mask up from $4 earlier this month.
Roughly 280 million masks from warehouses around the U.S. had been purchased by foreign buyers and were earmarked to leave the country. And according to the broker who said this to Forbes that was in one day.

Yes.

Not Hasidic:

Am I wrong?
I just found a nice stash of masks we bought at Home Depot a few years ago for a sanding project. Should I turn my self in?
No, just wait for the FBI to come and collect them.
I don’t know. I asked the question....
