Jay Marles

Fourteen months after Ocean Gate Police Officer Jason Marles was struck and killed by a drunk driver on his way home from a shift, the status of benefits for his two children remains a point of contention.

The death of Ocean Gate Policeman Jason Marles is still difficult for family and loved ones to endure, however the former wife of Officer Marles continues her fight with the Ocean Gate Police Department over insurance she claims was never provided for Jason Marles two kids.

Thanks to the work of a group of students from Ocean Gate Elementary, the memory of police officer Jay Marles will be forever remembered in town.
