Wow … Will Reynolds

This Is A Major Breaking News First Report

It is likely one of the most aggressive legal notices ever filed by a county prosecutor in New Jersey state history.

It may also prove to be one of the most unwise.

Atlantic County Prosecutor Will Reynolds has served initial required notice that he intends to file a lawsuit versus the County of Atlantic, the City of Atlantic City, the Atlantic County Executive, the Atlantic County administrator, the Mayor of Atlantic City and countless other county and city officials.

All of the Atlantic County and Atlantic City names are listed below in the official documents. Reynolds and his agency are being represented by a Philadelphia-based law firm … Bochetto & Lentz, who also have a law office in Mt. Holly, New Jersey.

Joe Jacobs & Frank “The Fish” Barbera

For reasons only known by Reynolds, he keeps bringing Joe Jacobs and Frank Barbera into his legal filings.

This makes at least three different Reynolds legal filings whereby he has stated that Frank Barbera (allegedly) works for Joe Jacobs.

I have spoken with both Jacobs and Barbera earlier today. Both have confirmed that Barbera has never worked for Jacobs.

Jacobs went on the record with an interesting encounter that he stated he had in the past with Reynolds.

“He (Will Reynolds) begged me to come to my home at an event that I was having with Governor Murphy and First Lady Tammy Murphy at my home.,”said Jacobs.

Joe Jacobs told me that Will Reynolds asked him: “Joe, would you help me to become the prosecutor” said Jacobs.

Jacobs told me that he advised Reynolds that “You don’t need to write a check. You can attend the event.”

Jacobs said that he didn’t know Reynolds at the time that he extended him this courtesy.

Reynolds Attended The Event At Joe Jacobs Home & Here Are The Photos That Prove It (See Below):

The photo above ironically places both Will Reynolds and Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small at the same party together.

The Joe Jacobs event took place during the summer of Governor Murphy‘s reelection campaign.
Joe Jacobs has confirmed to me that Frank “The Fish” Barbera “ does not work for me and has never worked for me, “said Joe Jacobs.
