• Former Toms River Councilman Terrance Turnbach Springs Accomplice Who Helped Wawa Murder Suspect Escape (shorenewsnetwork.com) — A Brick Township man, Ronald Hagan, has been released under court supervision after a judge rejected prosecutors' push to keep him jailed on charges he hindered the search for a Toms River Wawa murder suspect. His attorney, former Toms River councilman Terrance Turnbach, argued that a co-defendant's accusations were unreliable, while prosecutors cited Hagan's criminal history and alleged interference with investigators. The underlying homicide suspect remains at large.
