Assistant Bergen County Prosecutor Brian Sinclair said the state opposed Reamy’s release, the report states. Reamy has 11 firearms and two of them are unaccounted for, Sinclair said. Potter said the conditions of Reamy’s house arrest could be amended if the two unaccounted-for firearms are tracked down.
Richard Potter, Reamy’s attorney, told the website Reamy is staying at a “local residence,” before going to stay with another family member.
