I can’t speak to the specifics of this locale but my understanding is that stores have been permitted to operate curbside transactions in different states and I’ve certainly seen businesses livestreaming an hour or so in a store to highlight merchandise.
If the shopkeeper was strictly engaging in ebay sales by mail would there still be a criminal or civil charge? If not why not?

I’ve seen restaurants doing this with their “to go” alcohol drinks during this lockdown.
What’s the problem?
It is curbside.
Streaming online and being shut down for conducting business, period - not even conducting business in violation of any safety protocols - if you’re selling, it’s illegal.

The headline...does not match the story.
Article doesn’t support headline.
Article says she was charged for the offense of having customers inside the store during the restricted period.
It does say officers responded a second time on Tuesday to a complaint filed, which turned out to be the facebook event. But it doesn’t say she was charged for that.
Maybe it’s in the video.
Can I be the only one here wishing and hoping these people see the light and realize they are just peons to the socialist democrat elite?
That the elites don’t give a fig about them or their virtuous causes except as stepping stones up to the rings of power?

Message to the cops: The people you are harassing and irritating have been your biggest supporters in the past. Soon you will have no supporters. Remember that.
Good to see the Brown Shirt neighbors are out snitching!
Further investigation corroborated that a retail sale had occurred inside the store. The matter was referred to the Somerset County Prosecutors Office for review with a request for charges to be authorized.

If only they would go after drugs sales with this intensity.

And yet, no cop has been curb stomped during the lockdown. Sad.
But if I get mugged on the street by a dope fiend, I’m on my own.
People need to read the Cloward-Piven Strategy out loud to each other, and finally understand that:
THESE PEOPLE ARE NOT HERE TO FIX THE SYSTEM, BUT TO BREAK IT IRREVOCABLY!!!
It sounds like the police were conducting business, and it was not only not life sustaining business, it was life ending business.
Cops are not our friends. Never talk to the police.
Don’t even know what state this is in. How about somebody do some editing for us.
I’m guessing New Jersey which is run by a psychopathic Democratic governor, has a couple far-left lunatic congressional representatives, and is doing its best to keep visitors away, and succeeding.
We will avoid most of NJ when we go to see a very sick friend in NYC. He spent his life defending people from criminals and now those criminals run/ruin the city.
I liked NJ better when the Mafia ran most of it. At least if a cop were dirty then, you knew who their bosses were. Now you have to see which mayor, city councilman/woman and chief of police is a Democrat, a toadie, or a Stasi in training.
And I speak as the father of former federal police officer. I knew I could trust my son to be a good cop. Now I can’t trust half of those I read about.
The Commiecrats are winning until patriotic Americans say “ENOUGH”, organize, vote, and legally resist in the courts the Marxist/fascist rules known as Democrats.
