Burlington County Arrests 11 As Part Of National Campaign Against Domestic Violence
BURLINGTON COUNTY, NJ (CBS) – As part of a national campaign against domestic violence, the Burlington County Sheriff's Office announced the arrests of more than 11 people.
Burlington County Sheriff Jean Stanfield said the arrests were part of National Family Violence Apprehension Detail, which includes approximately 200 county sheriff's offices, police departments and related agencies from more than 20 states. The agencies served outstanding arrest warrants with charges that range from failing to pay child support to murder.
Burlington County attempted to serve 30 individuals warrants, resulting in the arrest of 11 people with a total of 15 outstanding warrants.
"Enforcing child support orders sends a clear message that the needs of our children must be met. This is a critical issue which affects all taxpayers," she added. "When child support goes unpaid, the cost of care often falls on State and County social service and other agencies."
