Re: Online Submission of Formal Rebuttal, Affidavits, and Tort Claim Notice – Glen Ridge Police Department Incident 25-05455

Dear Assistant Attorney General Dhillon,

Please be advised that I previously submitted my Affidavit of Rebuttal and Affidavit of Truth to the Glen Ridge Police Department Internal Affairs, along with a Tort Claim Notice under the New Jersey Tort Claims Act (N.J.S.A. 59:8-1 et seq.).

Due to the volume of documents, I am submitting this package digitally via publicly accessible links:

These documents outline violations of my constitutional rights, civil rights under 42 U.S.C. §1983, and ADA protections, including:

  • Unlawful seizure of my vehicle and personal property;

  • Denial of due process and equal protection under the U.S. Constitution;

  • Failure to accommodate my documented medical disability under the ADA;

  • Abuse of authority and misuse of police power under color of law.

I respectfully request that your office acknowledge receipt of this submission and review the materials for any appropriate action under federal civil rights oversight. These documents are publicly accessible and may be downloaded or printed for your files.

Thank you for your time and attention. I remain available for further clarification, testimony, or documentation if necessary.

Respectfully submitted,

Naomi Johnson

Recommendation

For We The People / constitutional violations, the best federal overseers are:

  • DOJ Civil Rights Division

  • U.S. Attorney’s Office – NJ, Civil Rights Unit

That way, your rebuttal is logged both at the state oversight level (AG, Comptroller, NJDCR) and the federal oversight level (DOJ, USAO-NJ). This preserves your record if you later decide to pursue a §1983 civil rights lawsuit in federal court.
