Back in March 2006 when we sat in on a public disciplinary hearing for Millburn Police Officer Gino Baldani, we described the affair to watching cousins squabble at a family gathering. Today, we look at it in a different light. Because it has taken three years for the township’s business administrator, Timothy Gordon, to render a verdict in the case, the stakes are considerably higher and it is no longer a family feud, but a potential liability to the municipality. Baldani, who is accused of improper conduct because he reportedly threatened another officer during an in-house investigation, waited a year and a half for a verdict before filing a lawsuit against the township for $750,000. The delay in rendering a verdict, according to Baldani’s attorney, denied the officer a chance at promotion as well causing damage to his reputation. When asked over the years what was the delay in making a decision, the business administrator often cautioned that we weren’t familiar with the procedures that have to be followed. Well, we do have an idea of what is reasonable. And send- ing Baldani a decision three years later is not. Now we are told a verdict was delayed because the tapes of the hearing were misplaced and were recently found. That’s negligence. Where were they? Who had them all this time? What’s more, Baldani apparently applied for a copy of the transcript of his hearing this past October and received not only the written record, but audio records of his hearing as well. Even if the municipality found them in October, why did it take until the end of February for a decision to be written? We have mixed feelings about the whole affair and whether Baldani was in the right or in the wrong with his actions.
