Mt. Laurel police hope to minimize localimpact of pope’s stop in Philadelphia
Potential problemsduring the papal visit

By MIKE MONOSTRAThe Sun
Pope Francis’ visit to Philadel-phia is still more than a weekaway, but police officials are pre-pared for a potential impact inMt. Laurel.
Pope Francis is scheduled tovisit Philadelphia on Sept. 26 and27, coinciding with the WorldMeeting of Families. Throngs of visitors are expected to visit thecity and see the pope, who isscheduled to speak at Independ-ence Mall on Sept. 26 and presideover mass in front of the Philadel-phia Art Museum on Sept. 27. Mt.Laurel is one of the many SouthJersey towns that could be im-pacted by the pope’s visit. Lt.Stephen Riedener of the Mt. Lau-
rel Police Department said the de-partment has been preparing forthe papal visit for the past fewmonths.
“We’ve been attending themeetings with Camden County aswell as New Jersey Department of Transportation,” he said.
Though Mt. Laurel is not inCamden County, Riedener saidthe police department and otheragencies in Burlington County
near the major highways were in-vited to meetings because of thescope of the event.
The state Department of Transportation in Augustwarned local residents there willbe expected congestion and de-lays on roadways across SouthJersey, saying as many as 2 mil-lion people could converge on thePhiladelphia metropolitan areafor the papal visit.
With Routes 38, 70 and 73 aswell as I-295 and the New JerseyTurnpike running through thetownship, Riedener acknowl-edged there might be a significanttraffic impact in Mt. Laurel. Tohelp combat possible issues, Mt.Laurel Police will have additionalofficers working in the townshipthat weekend.
“We’re not sending any man-power anywhere else,” Riedenersaid. “We do have increased pa-trols for that weekend in casethere is a large impact.”
One of the challenges the Mt.Laurel Police Department andother agencies are facing is theuncertainty of how many peoplewill actually go to the event.

The following information was provided
by the Mt. Laurel Police Department.

Arriv-ing officers located the 30-year-old malevictim and determined he was sufferingfrom an overdose of heroin. An officer ad-ministered Narcan and revived the victim.He was transported to a local hospital byMt. Laurel EMS for further treatment.
A resident of the 500 block of GardenWay reported that his house was struck by
eggs and paint balls on Aug. 27 at 10:30 p.m.Damage was done to the siding of thehouse.
On Aug. 29 at 6:25 p.m., Mt. Laurel Policeresponded to a hotel on Route 73 for a theft
report. The victim reported that money
and a gift card were stolen from his walletthat was in his room. The investigation ledto the arrest of a hotel employee, a 43-year-old man from Pennsauken. Hewas charged with theft and re-leased pending a court hearing.
On Aug. 29 at 8:25 p.m., Mt.Laurel Police conducted a motorvehicle stop on Route 38 near Marter Av-enue. During the stop, officers arrested a27-year-old man from Pemberton for anoutstanding warrant. After being arrested,he was found in possession of marijuana.
He was charged with possession of lessthan 50 grams of marijuana and releasedafter satisfying the warrant.
A vending machine was forcibly enteredat the main building of Laurel Acres Park
on Aug. 30. Food was stolen from the ma-
chine.
On Aug. 30 at 4:10 p.m., Mt. Laurel Policeconducted a motor vehicle stopon Church Road near Route 73.During the stop, officers arrest-ed a 21-year-old woman fromMaple Shade. She was chargedwith possession of less than 50

New Jersey may never win its
battle in court to allow legal-
ized sports betting in the
state. But new research shows that le-
galizing – and regulating – sports bet-
ting would be very beneficial to our
economy.
The American Gaming Associationlast week estimated that Americans
will bet $95 billion on the National
Football League and college football
this season, and less than 4 percent of
that is expected to be wagered legally.
“Illegal sports betting is reaching
new heights of popularity in Ameri-
ca,” said Geoff Freeman, the presi-
dent and CEO of the Association. “It’s
clear that a federal ban on traditional
sports betting outside of Nevada is
failing.”
GamblingCompliance, a global gam-
ing research firm, estimated that a
legal U.S. sports gambling market – like the one conducted in Nevada –
would produce $12.4 billion in annual
revenue. To put that in perspective,
that would be more than the estimated
$12 billion in revenue the entire NFL
is expected to generate this year!
So what’s the hold-up? For one, it
seems New Jersey’s avenue of pursu-
ing a lift of a federal ban on sports bet-
ting outside four states through court
isn’t going to work. However, it has
brought to light a lot of pertinent is-
sues, and benefits of changing the fed-
eral law. But that needs to happen at
the congressional level, not in court.
The heads of both the NBA and
MLB have said there needs to be a
“fresh approach” to sports betting.
Clearly, Americans are betting on
sports in widespread fashion, whether
the way they are doing it is legal.
Sports betting is not only common-place, it’s no longer taboo.
Walk into your favorite chain book-
store or supermart, and you’ll find
sports betting guides in the magazine
aisle. Heck, ESPN – “the worldwide
leader in sports” – even started an en-
tire section of its website dedicated to
covering the sports betting landscape
and providing bettors with advice.
The time is now to change the way
our country handles sports betting.
We are letting too much money fall
through our fingers at a time when we
need every cent we can get.
in our opinion
‘Fresh approach’ to betting neededIt’s time for Congress to take the lead in legalizing sports betting

On Sept. 26 from 10 a.m. to 2p.m., the Mt. Laurel Police De-partment and the Drug Enforce-ment Administration will givethe public its 10th opportunity infive years to prevent pill abuseand theft by ridding their homesof potentially dangerous expired,
unused and unwanted prescrip-tion drugs.Bring pills for disposal to the
Mt. Laurel Police Department at100 Mt. Laurel Road. The serviceis free and anonymous, no ques-tions asked.
Last September, Americansturned in 309 tons of prescriptiondrugs at nearly 5,500 sites operat-ed by the DEA and more than4,000 of its state and local law en-forcement partners. When thoseresults are combined with what
was collected in its eight previousTake Back events, DEA and itspartners have taken in more than4.8 million pounds of pills.
This initiative addresses a vitalpublic safety and public healthissue. Medicines that languish inhome cabinets are highly suscep-tible to diversion, misuse andabuse.
Rates of prescription drugabuse in the United States arealarmingly high, as are the num-ber of accidental poisonings andoverdoses due to these drugs.Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are ob-tained from family and friends,including from the home medi-cine cabinet.
In addition, Americans arenow advised that their usualmethods for disposing of unusedmedicines, flushing them downthe toilet or throwing them in thetrash, both pose potential safetyand health hazards.
For more information aboutthe disposal of prescription drugsor about the Sept. 26 Take BackDay, visit the website www.deadi-version.usdoj.gov/drug_dispos-al/takeback/index.html.

Laurel Schools during the sum-mer following the retirement of former superintendent An-toinette Rath.
Educating children is Vitella’spassion. But as an undergraduatestudent at York College of Penn-sylvania in the 1970s, Vitella did-n’t even consider education as apossible career path.
“My bachelor’s degree was justin English,” she said. “I thought Iwanted to go into public relations.When I got out of college, the only
job I could get was a position assecretary to the vice president of a PR firm in Philadelphia. I did itfor a couple of years and realizedthat I did not have any interest inthat business.”
Vitella stayed at home to raiseher children for more than adecade. She began to realize edu-
cation was her calling when shebegan getting involved as a par-ent and volunteer in the Ne-shaminy School District in BucksCounty, Pa. She served as the PTOpresident at Herbert Hoover Ele-mentary School, worked as a play-ground aide and also served as anaide in Neshaminy High School’scomputer writing lab. She lovedit, and after working closely foryears with Hoover ElementarySchool Principal Rick Marotto,she was inspired to go back toschool and become a teacher.
“When I was in my bachelor’sprogram, I never gave teaching athought,” Vitella said. “Once I gotinvolved and talking with Rick,he really inspired me.”
Vitella attended Trenton Stateand earned her master’s degreein education for secondary Eng-lish and English as a second lan-guage. In 1994, Vitella beganteaching language arts and Eng-lish as a second language in the
Burlington Township School Dis-trict. She loved it from the begin-ning.
“It was work that I loveddoing,” Vitella said. “I really hadan ability to relate to children, es-
pecially middle school. I loved
middle school. I had a positive im-pact on them, and they had a posi-tive impact on me.”
Vitella went back to collegeagain for a degree in educationadministration while teachingmiddle school. In 2001, she leftBurlington Township to becomean assistant principal at North-ern Burlington Regional HighSchool. Vitella said that positionhelped her learn many of the keyskills for being an administrator.
After about 18 months, Vitellachanged districts again, becom-ing a middle school assistantprincipal at William Allen MiddleSchool in Moorestown, and shebecame the school’s principal justnine months later.
“With only two years of admin-istrative experience, I becameprincipal in a very high-achiev-ing school district,” Vitella said.“I was very fortunate to hire anassistant principal who was a re-tired principal from the Ne-
shaminy School District.”In 2007, Vitella was hired as as-
sistant superintendent for cur-riculum, instruction and assess-ment in Mt. Laurel Schools. Uponcoming to the school district, shequickly saw it was unlike otherdistricts in the region and creditsRath for putting students first.
“Every decision that was madewas what’s best for kids,” Vitellasaid. “It really helped to shape meinto who I am today.”
Vitella’s favorite aspect of theschool district is the feeling of family and unity among the ad-ministrators, staff, students andcommunity.
“There are great people every-where,” Vitella said. “But thefamily feeling here, that we’re allpart of this amazing organiza-tion, is really noteworthy.”
As interim superintendent,Vitella said she doesn’t plan onlaunching any new initiatives.However, because she has been in
the district for eight years, sheknows what the district hasplanned for this year and is mak-ing sure everything is runningsmoothly despite a change at su-perintendent.
“I’m focusing on things we had
planned before Dr. Rath said shewas leaving,” Vitella said. “I hadalready prepared a professionaldevelopment plan for the year, sowe’re really just rolling forwardwith implementing that. I don’twant to implement any massivechanges because that’s not myrole as the interim.”
Vitella said she is interested inbecoming the permanent super-intendent in Mt. Laurel and saidshe will be applying for the posi-tion. However, her focus rightnow is dedicated to serving as theinterim superintendent anddoing the best job possible.
“There’s certainly a learningcurve for me moving into this of-fice,” she said. “But there’s not alearning curve in that I know thedistrict and the district knowsme. I really have amazing supporthere.”
