Due Process, Liberty and Justice for All

At the last council meeting, I was accused of spreading "propaganda" throughout our community. Nothing could be further from the truth.

While I am friendly with the individuals mentioned, I had no part whatsoever in spreading any propaganda. Guilty by association is not a crime, and speaking to fellow residents is not an offense.

I have far too much respect for the Town of Parsippany and the Mayor’s office to ever engage in something like that.

Anyone claiming otherwise is simply not telling the truth. My door is always open, and I welcome anyone to reach out to me directly with any questions. Unlike those who despise me and would stop at nothing to hurt me or my family, I will tell you the truth

Like anyone in the public eye, I have critics who will stop at nothing to tear down my character for their own gain or to fulfill a personal vendetta.

But unlike keyboard warriors who hide behind screens, I have proven my love for this town through 60 years of living here and over 40 years of dedicated community service.

At that same meeting, I heard people talk about due process, liberty, and justice for all.

All I am asking for is that exact same due process—the opportunity to sit down with those making these accusations and decisions so the powers to be can hear the truth from my side and, after the truth comes out, reinstatement. .

Respectfully,

Frank Neglia
