Im kind of disgusted by this situation but I haven't passed judgement on anyone. I find it just as disturbing that no one has said a goodbye to the kid. Instead everyone is attaching the sitter and Foster mother. Rest in peace Claudia. This was an awful tragedy and you were definitely taking way too early.   more ›

Councilman's Cop Brother Saves Woman from Fire

Cinnaminson Police Officer Frank Chiacchio, Councilman Chris Chiacchio's older brother, pulled the woman to safety from the Barton Court fire on Saturday.

The quiet heroics of a Cinnaminson police officer likely prevented a tragedy on Saturday. The Barton Court fire seemed like a pretty standard blaze. Crews responded quickly and got the fire under control. The heavy smoke did send a woman to the hospital with smoke inhalation. But it could have been much worse, if not for Officer Frank Chiacchio. Chiacchio rushed into the smoke-filled house and pulled the woman to safety, Lt. Tim Young said. She was disoriented and froze inside rather than leaving the home herself. “It almost sounded like she was in shock. She had tried to open a door, which fed the fire, and opened another one, which fed the fire more,” Young said. “The house was apparently full of smoke.” Chiacchio saw the woman wasn’t …
