Not a word thus far From New Jersey Gubernatorial candidate Steve Fulop about Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small.

That’s disgraceful.

Small is a campaign co-chairman for Fulop and his candidacy for Governor of New Jersey.

Fulop, who is presently the Mayor of Jersey City has previously endorsed Small for Mayor of Atlantic City.

The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s office has criminally charged Small with:

  • 2nd degree endangering the welfare of a child.
  • 3rd degree aggravated assault
  • 3rd degree terroristic threats
  • disorderly persons simple assault.

Here are the monstrous allegations about Small from the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office:

It is alleged that during the months of December 2023 and January 2024, the defendants physically and emotionally abused their 15/16-year-old-daughter on multiple occasions. During one incident, Marty Small, Sr. is alleged to have hit his daughter multiple times in the head with a broom causing her to lose consciousness. Another incident alleged that Marty Small, Sr., during an argument with his daughter, continuously threatened to hurt her by “earth slamming" her down the stairs, grabbing her head and throwing her to the ground, and smacking the weave out of her head. Another incident involved Marty Small, Sr. punching his daughter repeatedly in her legs causing bruising, said the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office.

Smalls’ wife, La’Quetta has also been criminally charged by the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office with:

  • 2nd degree endangering the welfare of a child.
  • 3 separate counts of disorderly persons simple assault.

About La’Quetta Small, the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office said:

It is alleged that La'Quetta Small, during one incident, punched her daughter multiple times on her chest leaving bruising. Another incident alleged that La Quetta Small dragged her daughter by her hair then struck her with a belt on her shoulders leaving marks. Another incident alleged that La'Quetta Small punched her daughter in the mouth during an argument, said the Atlantic County Prosecutor's Office.

These criminal charges are so disturbing in nature and the fact that Fulop, who wants to be the next Governor of New Jersey, hasn’t commented about The Smalls’ allegations is unacceptable.

Especially considering the fact that Small is a co-chairman of Fulop’s campaign for Governor.
