On January 24, 2024, at approximately 1:20 a.m., Sgt. Michael Losurdo observed three people on the front steps of a Hoboken Housing Authority building on the 400 block of Marshall Drive, attempting to gain entry. Police Officers Nasir Wiley and Daniella Simone conducted a building sweep, due to recent complaints of non-residents entering the building to engage in narcotic use and to sleep in the stairwells. They saw the three people gaining entry after ringing multiple doorbells and stopped them on the seventh floor where it was confirmed none of them lived in the building. Police Officers Mark Mooreman, Carmen Benitez, Ricky Truppner, Anish Bhisey and Domenick Allegretta arrived on the scene to assist. The three people, later identified as 52-year-old Ricky Weaver of Jersey City, 34-year-old David Doria of Jersey City, and 30- year-old Crystal Bent of Hoboken, were placed under arrest. A search incident to arrest of Weaver located a push rod, a broken crack pipe burnt on both ends, and a white rock-like substance believed to be CDS crack cocaine. All were transported to Hoboken Police Headquarters. Weaver was charged with defiant trespassing, possession of drug paraphernalia, and possession of CDS crack cocaine. He was transported to the Hudson County Correctional Facility. Bent was charged with defiant trespassing and hindering apprehension for providing a false name at first. She was released on a summons. Doria was charged with defiant trespassing and released on a summons. He was also found to have a warrant out of Jersey City and given a new court date on that warrant. These charges are merely accusations and the defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty. An arrest is not a finding of guilt: that’s something for a court to decide.
