There are articles about the case in the Shopper, the Voice, and the Yated. Each article addresses different points, so if anyone wants a better understanding, you may want to check out all three articles.

I'd like explanations for the following:

Sign in Satmar: "There will be a sheva berachos tonight Sunday June 13th for our friend [name redacted]
in [location redacted]. Dessert and dancing: 9:45. To join seuda 7:45 PM please call [number redacted].

Found strewn on the street: Business cards with the name Meir Gutfreund
and the image of a man (presumably Meir Gutfreund), but nothing else.

At the bottom of a sign in Satmar (about an expo for Jewish literature with haskamos):
"Sponsored by Prizes for Children who cover their legs properly [sic]. To bring this to your neighborhood [number redacted]."
"Any word can mean anything! By giving words new meanings, ordinary English can become an exclusionary code!" -Cal.&Hob.

(Slight clarification: The cards were not near Satmar.)

And Bais Shaindel seems poised to get approval shortly on a school and a huge wedding hall (bigger than Lake Terrace) on Lewin Avenue, alongside the tracks off Prospect (directly across from Prospect Square).

What's Jewish about putting windows of houses facing each other, 5 feet from each other, and driveways sticking into other people's houses? What happened to מה טובו אוהליך יעקב and the countless takanas of Chazal against obstructing other people's views?

Don't the windows facing each other make sure there are no obstructed views?

Yeah. I'm sure Jews in Warsaw and the LES lived less crowded. Not

Booming. Smashing. Crashing. Whatever the term, it's mamash beautiful that Lakewood has the most unsafe roads in NJ. Also 99% of Lakewooders have way too much free time on their hands. Baruch Hashem a simple 2 minute car ride can keep us entertained for a couple hours.
