Lately, crime has been one of the hottest topics in Montclair. From home break-ins to car thefts, the fear is real—but is the reality as bad as it seems? Are crime rates actually rising, or is social media just making it all more visible? How are police managing and responding? And what can we do to better protect our homes, our valuables, and ourselves?
This is the start of a long conversation, and today, we’re beginning it with a few key voices:
- Captain James Lalor and Lieutenant Tyrone Williams Jr. of the Montclair Police Department on what’s happening with recent break-ins, car thefts and how Montclair citizens can help each other in protecting themselves. Follow MPD on Instagram as well.
- Veteran security expert Rob Berman, founder of Berman Home Systems, on how crime trends are shifting after 40 years in the field.
- Jiu-jitsu instructor Karen Peterson, co-owner of North South Jiu Jitsu in Montclair and Bloomfield, on how to defend yourself in real-life situations.
- Montclair residents sharing their personal crime stories and concerns.
Plus, we dig into your voicemails (thanks for those!) answering listener questions about all things Montclair from NJ Transit to small business hours and much more.
Our crime issue in town isn’t going away overnight, and neither is this conversation. Tune in, listen, and be part of the discussion.
