Chester County District Attorney Tom Hogan declined to press charges Sunday in a case reported Saturday by State Police involving an alleged incident involving a district justice candidate supporter allegedly trying to run down with a car an opponent’s supporter earlier this month.
According to a release from the State Police, “this case was brought to the attention of the Chester County District Attorney‘s Office, which declined to approve charges against the suspect.”
Hogan’s decision not to pursue charges is the latest chapter in the nastiest District Justice race in recent memory in District 15-4-04 (West Grove and Avondale boroughs, West Marlborough, London Grove, Franklin, London Britain, and New Garden townships) between incumbent Matthew Seavey and challenger Nicole Morley, both Republicans.
Initially, State Police reported Saturday they were investigating an incident claiming a supporter of Seavey was allegedly nearly run down by a silver or light blue Infinity with a Morley sign on it in Franklin Township, on May 8.
For all you heartless people. I really hope that God is watching over you when a car comes your way. Why would someone make up a story like that, it would only make them look stupid. This kid wants nothing but to support Matt Seavey and has been doing it with a clear conscience. Those who know what it is to have integrity and honor will vote for the right person Tomorrow!!
Everyone can read through those despicable accusations and see that the Seavey supporters will do anything to try to help his campaign. All they continue to do is show what they are all about. The length to which they will go seems to have no end.
These accusations were completely unfounded. The District Attorney’s Office has denied all charges. Clearly, they even see the real truth in all of this!
Nicole Morley has integrity and honor and she has stayed above board in this campaign. As a lawyer and a prosecutor and the only lawyer in this race, she pledges to be fair and seek justice as she always has!
Please join me and others who want an upgrade in our District Court. Please vote on Tuesday, May 19th for Nicole Morley for Magisterial District Judge.
How nice the GOP running re-elect Thomas Hogan-DA doesn’t want to get involved? Too bad, hope it’s doesn’t bite him in the rear come November some it seems a lot of people in the area KNOWS what really happened. The taxpayers isn’t getting their monies worth …. Not pressing charges because of who it is? ..why?
A claim was made by a Seavey campaign supporter, and because it was baseless (aka entirely fabricated), an OFFICIAL UPDATE from the PA State Police stated “this case was brought to the attention of the Chester County District Attorney’s Office, which DECLINED to approve charges against the suspect.”
Anyone can see that this accusation by a Seavey supporter was a politically motivated attempt to discredit his opponent that backfired. I suppose that when you’re up against Nicole Morley, an impressive individual with squeaky clean credentials, who is backed by almost an entire community, one must resort to blatant lies and desperate attempts at bullying and intimidation.
These sorry, dirty tricks do nothing but discredit Seavey’s campaign, representing a shameful waste of valuable state resources.
Nicole Morley continues to be positive and above board in her campaign for Magisterial District Judge. She and her family are good, honest people, who are dedicated to the community and devoted to the children and families who live here. I know for a fact that Nicole Morley is determined to bring INTEGRITY and PROFESSIONALISM back to the District Court, and that she has the education and understanding of the law required to do just that—which is why she will have my family’s vote on Tuesday.
That’s really going way too far.Agree to disagree but to pointedly aim your car at someone ????
What next is everyone with a Seavey sign a target ?
If this surprises anyone. I have a bridge I would I can sell you!
