Carmine Inteso, the former Toms River Township Council and Committee member who spent a year as its mayor, can expect to spend six months in a federal prison and six months under house arrest for tax evasion.

Imprisoned former Toms River Regional Schools Chief Mike Ritacco and Former Insurance Broker Francis Gartland are being ordered to pay over $4-million in restitution to the school district jointly.

Former Toms River Mayor and Councilman Carmine Inteso might spend up to five years in prison at his scheduled April sentencing for federal income tax evasion. He pleaded guilty today in Newark.

Frank D'Alonzo, the onetime Athletics and Special Projects Supervisor in the Toms River Regional Schools District, heads to prison for 37 months in connection with the bribery scheme that landed his former boss behind bars for more than three times as long.

An insurance broker who admitted his role in a bribery scheme involving New Jersey's fourth-largest school district has been sentenced to more than 11 years in prison.

The arrest of former Toms River Mayor Carmine Inteso also brought with it more allegations of it may be  linked to Toms River, and a current board member believes the case could reveal even more impropriety.
