PROBE INTO DEADLY WRONG-WAY COP'S DRIVING RECORD MOVED TO A DIFFERENT NEW JERSEY COUNTY. IT SHOULD MOVE TO ANOTHER STATE, AS NEW JERSEY STATE AND LOCAL GOVERNMENTS ARE NOTORIOUSLY CORRUPT AND THEY PROTECTED DRUNK ABAD FOR MANY YEARS, UNTIL HE KILLED HIS FRIENDS







MONDAY, MARCH 30, 2013

The investigation into a New Jersey police officer who hit a tractor-trailer head-on on a Staten Island highway earlier this month, killing a fellow officer and friend and critically injuring a third cop, will be handled by a different prosecutor's office, authorities said Monday.

The Union County prosecutor's office said it would hand off the probe into the driving record and employment history of Pedro Abad Jr., who was off duty and behind the wheel of a car that crashed March 20 while heading the wrong way on the West Shore Expressway. The state attorney general's office said the investigation will be handled by the Middlesex County prosecutor's office.

The action is being taken to avoid the perception of any conflicts of interest.
Public records show Abad has been involved in eight accidents since 2005 and has two arrests for drunken driving in the last four years. No one answered the phone at his home Monday.

Abad was hospitalized in critical condition following the crash on the West Shore Expressway, which killed fellow Linden officer Frank Viggiano and friend Joseph Rodriguez. A funeral was held for Viggiano on Thursday; Rodriguez's body was laid to rest the day before.

Patrik Kudlac, another Linden cop riding in Abad's Honda, was also hospitalized in critical condition after the crash. His family said Monday his condition is improving but remains critical; a relative said there was optimism about his recovery.

Neither Viggiano's nor Rodriguez's families commented on the change in investigative direction Monday.

Authorities say that Abad was driving his fellow officers and friend on the wrong side of the expressway on the way back from a strip club when his vehicle slammed into the tractor-trailer.  New York authorities obtained a warrant to test Abad's blood-alcohol content following the crash, but the results haven't yet been made available.  

We would not be surprised if somehow the New Jersey authorities lose the blood results or no blood test is ever done or the test is held invalid, as New Jersey is the state of the corrupt cops, corrupt governors, corrupt judges and corrupt state and local government.  In any event, driving the wrong-way after visiting strip clubs and posting heavy liquor glass images on the internet is plenty proof that this crazy and/or reckless cop was bloody drunk when he killed his friends.

The New Jersey police officer who hit a tractor-trailer head-on on a Staten Island highway last week, killing a fellow officer and friend and critically injuring a third cop, had wrecked his patrol car while on duty in at least one other accident, NBC 4 New York has learned.

According to a police report, Linden Police Officer Pedro Abad had crashed his police cruiser while responding to a call near the town's border with Roselle in August 2009. 

Abad was injured in the crash but was not ticketed. The driver of the other car was cited for failing to yield the right of way.

Abad is currently in critical condition following the crash early Friday on the West Shore Expressway, which killed fellow Linden officer Frank Viggiano and friend Joseph Rodriguez. Patrik Kudlac, also a Linden cop riding in Abad's Honda, is also in critical condition.

A funeral was held for Viggiano on Thursday; Rodriguez's body was laid to rest the day before.

Authorities say that Abad was driving his fellow officers and friend on the wrong side of the expressway on the way back from a strip club when his vehicle slammed into the tractor-trailer. Authorities obtained a warrant to test Abad's blood-alcohol content following the crash, but the results haven't yet been made available.

Records show that Abad had been involved in seven other wrecks and had been twice arrested on drunken driving charges.

Following a 2013 crash in Rahway, Abad had his driver's license suspended for eight months after pleading guilty to driving under the influence. He later had to install an alcohol interlink system in his car for 180 days, but was cleared to drive without restriction in September 2014.

Dashcam video from Abad's arrest shows the man slurring his speech, struggling to stand and failing a field sobriety test during the stop in Rahway.
Abad was also been arrested for DUI in Roselle in 2011, but prosecutors later dropped the charges. 

NJ.com reports that according to a police report from that crash, on Jan. 22, 2011, the Audi A5 Abad was driving punched through a small convenience store. When the reporting officer arrived, Abad was sitting in the driver's seat with a bloody nose and there were Linden and Union County police officers at the scene. 

The report says that officers and firefighters noticed the smell of alcohol on Abad, and that an officer went to the hospital with him to have a blood-alcohol test performed. The results of that test weren't available, NJ.com reports.
Linden Cop in Fatal Wrong-Way Crash Had Been Arrested for DUI, Records Show

He also crashed his car three times in Linden, once more in Roselle and once each in Montclair and Holmdel, records show. In one crash, he was cited for using a cellphone while driving.

Linden Mayor Derek Armstead said  his office has been in discussions with the Union County Prosecutor's Office about a possible probe of how the police department handled Abad's drunk-driving cases.

It is obvious that Linden has blood on its hands, as they let this drunk guy on the streets, despite numerous warnings, until he killed two of his friends.
