Well now this is creepy Jersey City

We're not gonna go into any kind of a panic but this makes you sit up and wonder. Jersey City resident Mykyta Panasenko was arrested the same day the losers attacked the Boston Marathon, for building and having bombs, one of which while unfinished he still took on an NJ Transit train. His laundry list of charges reads as follows:

Panasenko is charged with having “two destructive devices, specifically improvised explosive devices constructed from a cylinder containing Pyrodex (black powder)” on April 5, the criminal complaint says.

He is also charged with recklessly creating widespread risk of injury or damage to a building . . . by constructing the explosive devices, according to the charges filed after the investigation led by the Jersey City Police Department and NJ Transit Police Department.

Panasenko is also charged with having two improvised explosive devices on April 7 aboard an NJ Transit train leaving Hoboken and bound for Suffern, the complaint says.

Jersey City residents owe thanks for the heads up to the NYPD and the FBI who got a tip from someone who knows Panasenko. The JCPD's bomb squad handled the rest.

Now the authorities say he never intended to target public buildings or public transportation. Still, why do people build bombs? To store in a closet? To hold napkins? No they build them to watch them go boom. So going forward can we please keep an eye on this guy? Ankle monitoring won't be enough, those are increasingly being outwitted. We need a Lojack for people on this one. And please please please keep him away from Jerry Walker, Jersey City mayor-to-be.

Security guard at the NBA offices in Secaucus was phoning in bomb threats to his own building

Incredible. Jose L. Quesada Jr. who was (key word was) a security guard at the National Basketball Association offices in Secaucus and was calling in bomb threats such as:

"I put a bomb outside . . . Gonna kill all the NBA. . . . There's a bomb outside the complex in the parking lot. I put a bomb outside in the bush. No way out. Gonna blow up at 9:00 o'clock in the morning. Good luck . . . If you come out, it will blow up. "

Now being the master criminal he is, Quesada dialed in the blocking codes before the number so his call would show up a the NBA switchboard as 'Unknown caller' but when people like the FBI get involved this ruse quickly falls away. After three days of making calls Quesada admitted to investigators he indeed did make the bomb threats.

For his troubles (and it should be pointed out Quesada did not work for the NBA itself rather a security contractor) Quesada faces penalties of 5 years in prison and up to a $250K fine.
