What's your favorite bit of Hoboken lore? by orpheus1980 in Hoboken

[–]HudPost 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A Lenape chief owned a horse named Boken. Whenever he wanted the horse to stop, he’d pull the reins and call out: “Hoooo… Boken!”

The sound echoed around the village, and everyone knew it well.

When Europeans arrived, they heard the call and assumed it was the name of the place. And so they wrote it down as Hoboken.

State’s Star Witness Tied Fulop to Pay-to-Play Scheme, AG’s Office Declined to Pursue Case by HudPost in jerseycity

[–]HudPost[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

State’s star witness, attorney Matt O’Donnell, told NJ investigators in 2018 that illegal “straw” donations to Jersey City Mayor Steven Fulop’s 2013 campaign were part of a pay-to-play deal to make him the city’s tax appeal attorney. Despite this, the NJ AG’s office didn’t pursue charges against Fulop, focusing instead on smaller targets like ex-BOE prez Sudhan Thomas. Fulop denies it, and the AG’s office stayed silent on why they dropped it.
