PATERSON The city has fallen short in its attempt to get a full dismissal of the federal lawsuit filed over the death of Jameek Lowery, who died in January 2019 after he was restrained by Paterson police officers in an ambulance.
A federal judge last week ruled that Lowery’s estate could continue with its lawsuit on two counts: allegations of his wrongful death and damages to his survivors for his pain and suffering.
The judge, Madeline Cox Arleo, also said in her decision that the family could pursue four other counts against the city for alleged violations of Lowery’s civil rights claims involving the supervision and training of the cops and the allegation that the officers restrained him in a way that put him in danger as long as the Lowery lawyers submitted additional information in a revised complaint.

A Paterson man will be 75 before he ll be eligible for parole under a plea-bargained sentence handed down this week for sexually assaulting three children over the course of several years.
Ramon Torres, 68, was arrested in November 2019 by detectives from the Passaic County Special Victims Unit.
An investigation found that Ramon had “committed acts of sexual contact upon three children under the age of thirteen with whom he was acquainted…between the years of 1985 and 2019 in the City of Paterson,” Passaic County Prosecutor Camelia Valdes said.
Rather than go to trial, Torres pleaded guilty last June to second-degree sexual assault and two counts of child endangerment in exchange for an eight-year prison sentence.

Updated Feb 15, 2021;
A former school janitor facing multiple child pornography charges passed state and local background checks before he was hired to work in Essex County schools, the district’s superintendent said Friday.
Christopher M. Lucas, 30, of Clifton in Passaic County, worked for the North Caldwell Public School System from September 2020 until his arrest on Thursday.
Lucas, who worked in a “non-teaching staff position,” no longer works for the district, Superintendent of Schools Linda Freda said in a letter to parents on Friday.
Investigators said they recovered photos and videos of child sexual abuse that Lucas allegedly downloaded from the internet.
