The 17-year-old suspect from Garwood — a son of a retired police officer and the nephew of the Westfield police chief — was charged Wednesday with the first-degree murders of Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas.
Relatives of Niiotis said the teen had been stalking her for months — something the teen suspect acknowledged on livestreams of his MLB co-op games, which attracted thousands of followers on TikTok.


Stalking them and the family tried to get the cops to help and allegedly the cops did nothing because the father is a cop and is related to the chief.

They should be charged as accessories. After all, that’s what they would do if a civilian knew about a murder plot and decided not to tell anyone about it.
