    I['m sorry, maybe the author didn't have enough info, but this article needs to be more clear.
    the host's ex husband was also charged----is that the police officer? then say that bc right now the relationship of the man to the woman is unclear.

    sounds like a lot of gray area. it's too bad he didn't play drinking games with some of us - now THAT would be a cool story

    I find it odd that this article was posted and there are only three comments...all either lukewarm or supportive of the author. Have people found that their comments have been deleted? Just curious on this, as I figured this story would generate quite a bit more buzz.

    "sounds like he didn't do anything too wrong"

    just as anyone who has had a party in their room, or even more egregious, an eating club president 'didn't do anything too wrong.'

    it's bullshit the witchhunt the borough has against college students having some beers (surely they remember what that feels like, unless they grew up when the drinking age was still 18), so i'm honestly glad to see this hypocrisy thrown up.

    if even the police themselves are doing it, why expend so much energy chasing down students?

    I actually know this officer. We went to Princeton High School together and he caught me on campus carrying alcohol when I was a freshman. Under his request, his senior partner let us go with a warning. He's a good guy.

    he's a good guy because he let you break the law because you KNEW him? so if an eating club president hangs out with all the detectives they'll stop getting charged because they're all friends? COOL.
