PFA Order Filed Against Disgruntled Caseworker Jim Gregory

Senior Judge Lawrence E Brenner issued a Protection from Abuse Act Order this afternoon against disgruntled Northampton County Human Services caseworker Jim Gregory. Pending a full hearing on May 31, Gregory has been ordered to stay away from his girlfriend, surrender his firearms, and make no attempt to contact her in any way, even through third parties.

In a sworn affidavit, Gregory's girlfriend, whom I decline to name, recites a pattern of abuse that became life-threatening last week.

Before last Wednesday, he had punched her while driving, choked her and headbutted her.

On Wednesday, things got worse.

"He kicked me in the gut and knocked me backwards out of nowhere. I asked him why he did that. I threw the phone. I went to leave the room. He grabbed me by my neck  and threw me onto the bed and was strangling me. He got on top of me and was punching me in the head. I grabbed the pillow and stuck [it] in front of my face. I was pinching him to stop. He grabbed me again. He bit me by my wrist. He stuck his finger in my eye sockets and was pushing hard. I kept trying to scream for help. He was still trying to strangle me. I somehow got away from him. I went downstairs and grabbed my keys ... ."

On Thursday, she contacted police, who filed charges against Gregory. On Friday evening, police told Gregory not to contact her. But he has ignored that advice, attempting to contact her over 100 times since his conversation with police. He also told his girlfriend's mother to bring her to the magistrate's office to drop the charges.

He's grown increasingly more angry, and has begun sending text messages telling her he will destroy her and ruin her in any way he can.

He has also, according to the sworn affidavit, impersonated his girlfriend in blog comments here.

Gregory's girlfriend first tried to seek a PFA Order on Friday afternoon, but was told she'd have to wait until Monday to file, or seek an emergency order from a Magistrate through the Bethlehem police. She tried contacting Bethlehem police. An officer who is friendly with Gregory, himself a former police officer, tried to talk her out of it, according to the mother.

Gregory is former President of Bethlehem City Council and works with mentally ill people for Northampton County. In recent weeks, he has called for the removal of virtually every supervisor in his department, as well as Executive John Stoffa.

According to his girlfriend's sworn statement, "He is manic and is having a breakdown."

  4. Now the end is near job wise for him. And to think Lamont and Cusick gave him all that air time in front of Council. He is a dangerous punk, an embarrassment to himself ,his family, his employer, his clients, his union his wife, girlfriend and most importantly himself.

  5. Really nice of him to write a letter to the editor today for Glenn Reibman. I'm sure Reibman really appreciated that. All of this after he was holding hands with John Brown last night at the Steelworkers dinner. Maybe Gregory wants Callahan to win after all...

  6. Actually, Cusick pulled the lug on this reprobate, and caught all kinds of hell for it from the Fake Rev. Barron von Footinmouth leaked expense sheets to him so he could raise a stink about that, too. He has had many enablers.

  12. funny how the guy who calls many commentators here cowards is himself the guy who roughs up a woman.

  13. Bernie I doubt anyone excuses this behavior. I am sure his friends s and acquaintances' are shocked by this behavior. He is sick and needs to go get help.

    He has always been a bit "crazy" but I doubt anyone imagined it had gotten this bad. I guess Kenny was right.

    The guy has no excuse for slapping around a woman. His karate won't help him much in jai,l if he ends up there.

    He sounds absolutely crazy!! Marcus has to stop his contact with patients. The guy is a menace.

    The cops who dragged their feet should also be disciplined. Domestic violence is something you don't mess around with. Zero tolerance.

    I hope the young woman stays safe and stays away for him.

  18. This guy is a narcissistic loser who can now add woman-beater to his resume of insane acts. He should be terminated immediately from county employment less he injures someone while on duty. He is a loose cannon who is a danger to himself and others. The MH unit he works for should put him away.

  19. Not one shred of evidence has been produced to show this to be true..She is all over his facebook page over the last month smiling and taking pictures..He was married before and both wives never, ever accused him of abuse. This girl worked at an event for him all day thursday..She was taking pictures with him in a sleeveless gown..No marks..Two judicial candidates were there and saw Lina. She was fine.
    Does anyone here see that this is a spurned girl trying to destroy this guys life..Think about it..No evidence of abuse. She is in every facebook picture for the past two months and was going to Karaoke every Thursday night with him during this time..Call me crazy but before he is cut to ribbons, someone somewhere should produce an ounce of proof, no??

  20. He has retained Gary Asteak..For her sake , there better be proof of something..I wish her luck..Expect a quick press conference..

  21. He attempted to file a PFA Friday night after his girlfriend trashed his place and her friends stole his property..The cops told him they would not file the order..Now, we have her filing an order five days after the incident..Why now? Why not when it allegedly occured. Who is behind this and why is she trying to destroy his life..Spurned is the best word for it...You people can hate Gregory all you want but alot of folks will be eating crow if he is right..For God sake, look at his facebook photos..She looks as happy as a clam...No abuse here folks..Go on home.. Gary Asteak here we come..No more games.

  22. Anyone wants the truth, keep posted..I'm sure that Mr. Asteak will have ALOT to say later in the week..
    I'd tread lightly on this Bernie..If anything posted here and said by you would affect his livelihood, you will be held liable..Talk to Rick, he'll tell you that. No one has heard Gregory's side of the story..When they do, they'll be stunned.. ALOT of political agendas here. Callahan especially..Other than Lina's PFA
    and Lina's accusations, where is the proof??? She worked an event for him on Thursday all day..She took tickets and sold raffles..She had a sleeveless gown on. No marks.
    She and friends went to his house and they trespassed and stole his property. No charges filed by Bethlehem police. Anything waking anyone up here..Think people!! Where is the evidence. Gary Asteak
    will devour her..It didnt have to be.

    ReplyDelete
  23. The simple fact is anyone can file a PFA and 99% that are filed are granted based on no evidence and only a statement. Then when the hearing comes around less than 25% are awarded.

    Why is that?
    Because this is a loophole people play to try to hurt another person. But when it comes to time for factual evidence then the true story comes out.

    Problem is that there is little to no consequence for the accuser of the original PFA after it is thrown out. And the reputation of the accusee is already tarnished with most of the public.

    This post is unbiased towards this situation.

    I would hope that we shall see the truth come out during the hearing.

    Bernie, I'm sure you will report the result on May 31

  24. "I'd tread lightly on this Bernie..If anything posted here and said by you would affect his livelihood, you will be held liable"

    As far as I am concerned, you should be canned now. How's that for treading lightly?

    I am glad you've retained Asteak. The first thing he will tell you is to shout your big fat mouth. You may think you're a Mensa, but you have already convicted yourself of a number of offenses with your stupid mouth.

  25. "The cops who dragged their feet should also be disciplined."

    In fairness to the BPD, which I consider the best police in the state, they may not have dragged their feet at all. That might be a misunderstanding during a trying time.

  28. Jim, I am not signing this for very obvious reasons. Stop responding to these charges reported on this Blog. It is obvious that it is you giving information that no one but you can possibly have. Although you respond anonymously, all e-mails can be traced including these Blogs. Keep your mouth shut and offer no more comments. you have one of the best criminal lawyers in the state representing you and he has handled many of these before. You can walk away from this with a blemish, but at least it won't mean your job and your retirement. Lay low for the next year. You are under a lot of pressure and tension is high. For god's sake shut up and let your lawyer handle this.

  29. 9:05, Your data is flawed, wich is probably why you provide no link. Here are some facts:

    1. One in four women experience domestic violence, which is the leading cause of injury to women ages 15 to 44.

    2. In 2011, there were 166 domestic violence fatalities in Pennsylvania.

    3. In Allegheny, about 40% of PFAs are dismissed. As someone familiar with the courts, I can tell you in most instances, it is bc the parties reconcile and the male promises to never do it again.

    Until she ends up in the hospital.

  30. Bernie,

    You are a disbarred lawyer with nothing to lose..You live in a shack in Nazareth and have few friends. So the big talk is a joke..Taking about shutting your big mouth, you should try it..When the truth comes out, you will have to crawl from the area. look at the photos..Talk to people at the event..You dont want to becausae it'll prove you to be a liar. Talk to his ex wives..Talk to their friends..This woman was spurned and she is listening to bad advise and going crazy..I don't see you doing a story on the house trashing? How about one about her kicking his door in? How about the one with her kicking him and breaking his IPAD.. Missing those stories?? You won't once they are public. Nor will anyone. They were a very loving and passionate couple that didnt work out..Now she is taking advise from her ex boyfriend who she's been in touch with for months. Did she mention in the complaint that she was caught sending a message to the ex boyfriend and ending it with xoxox.
    Oh, you must have missed that all Bernie?? Again, there has not been one shred of evidence produced that her statement is true. Not an ounce..Good luck finding it..

  35. Funny bernie,

    If there is so much truth in this , why aren't the call and the Express breaking down Gregory's door for answers..He's a former cop, a former Hellertown and Bethlehem Council person, and a county worker. Yet they didn't bite at your pathetic story..Why is that?? Cause it's crap, that's why. Nothing to it. There are nothing but accusations and no proof at all to back it up...NONE! So keep it up Bernice..Nothing here..Nothing but your neck.

  36. I've got a deal with the papers. I don't tell them what to cover and they don't tell me what to cover. In my opinion, this story is highly newsworthy for several reasons, and I would not be surprised if one or both daily papers decided to pay attention.

    ReplyDelete
  37. Bernie,
    Let's get into the article referenced in the Post-Gazette:
    1. In 2011, judges in Allegheny County approved 97 percent of all initial PFA petitions. In about 60 percent of the cases, the plaintiff either withdrew the petition or failed to appear at the evidentiary hearing 10 days later.
    2. The PFA law does state that a person who files a PFA "in bad faith" must pay the defendant's attorney fees and can be criminally prosecuted, though this almost never happens. Proving bad faith is impossible in most cases because of the "he-said, she-said" nature of domestic violence.
    3. Here are five common-sense ways to curb abuses under Pennsylvania's PFA law:

    • There should be a discussion or other means of ensuring that PFA defendants understand the consequences of accepting a final PFA. It could be as simple as checking boxes on a standard form.

    • Courts should make it easier to allow defendants to recover attorney fees when a PFA is withdrawn or dismissed.

    • District attorneys should criminally prosecute what Judge Eaton calls "serial filers" of bogus PFAs.

    • Law schools and legal aid clinics should partner to train students to provide free representation for low-income PFA defendants as well as plaintiffs.

    • Temporary PFAs should be removed from the public database when a PFA is later withdrawn or dismissed.

    Such measures would strengthen an important law by limiting the damage caused by bogus PFAs without weakening protections for victims of domestic violence.

    He was married to them over twenty years. So ask them..Ask them or shut your mouth already! Again, where is any proof of abuse? The only proof is that of a spurned woman who was jealous of every woman Gregory spoke to .Did she mention in the complaint that she lost tens of thousands of dollars of his money at the Sands casino..Guess not..Must have missed that Bernie..Must have missed that..

  44. Gregory, The proof of abuse is her own statement. I tend to believe her and not believe you. I consider you a disgusting woman beater who should not be allowed near anyone seeking human services in Northampton County. I also happen to have heard from other parties that they've witnessed you being abusive.

    Interestingly, you told me to talk to your girlfriend bc this untrue. Now you want me to talk to both your ex wives.

  45. When this goes to court and when the harassment hearing takes place, the truth will come out..It has to.
    Have you no faith in the system? There will now be two forums. One will be the harassment hearing and the other will be the PFA hearing..
    Oh yeah, and possibly the hearing for the trespassing on Gregory's property by her friends and theft of Gregory's property by her friends. Although callahan's officer's do not want to investigate the theft , it will be investigated..Thoroughly.

She got her degree from whom? Maybe he was upset that she busted his door and brand new IPAD..Maybe he was upset that her friends entered his property illegally and stole a gold chain and the IPAD owned by him among other things. Maybe he's upset that she took a video of him at Champs corner and put it on UTUBE then fed it to you. Maybe he is upset because a Bethlehem Police officer gave you a tip about his harassment summary charge before he even knew about it..Or was it the Mayor who passed that information along?? No, why would he be upset by this?
    Probably just manic, lol

As far as what is beig said there is his side, her side and somewhere in there lies the truth. They made there beds so now let them both lye in it.

  74. Bernie, the sad thing is I agree with Gregory's ex-wife's friend. The problem is it is that insane Gregory who has posted most of the anonymous posts about himself on this blog. You know that you only have to read them to see they all are written by the same person. They all have the same Gregory manic twang to them. Not surprised a county elected pol said this was coming.

    No one, not even his "friends" would approve of smacking around a woman. He has gone off the deep, deep end. I think it is shameful he even suggests people bother his ex-wives.

    They are probably glad to be "ex-wives" at this point. One has had to cover a lot of debt.

    Funny line of the night by anonymous (jg) is..
    "she lost tens of thousands of dollars of his money at the Sands casino."

    Now that is funny!!!

    Bernie if Gary Asteak is his attorney and Gary is one of the best, would he not have had Gregory's mouth taped shut to stop him from using it as a shovel to dig a deeper hole of shit than he is already in. Have to wonder if Gary knows he has been pulled into the Gregory saga.

  80. Is this the same James Gregory who was Bethlehem City Council President ten years ago? That James Gregory was a real trip.

    He scaled a City Hall security fence to show that it didn't work. He was locked out of his own campaign office by the labor union that had been supporting him. He had to escorted out of a school by the police when he tired to crash an appearance by the Governor. And he likened John Morganelli to Tony Soprano. After losing the Democratic primary for Mayor, he was ousted as City Council President and declared that he was leaving the Democratic Party.

    Does anyone know if this is the same James Gregory? If so, it would explain a lot.

  92. Simple, even for nutjob Gregory, a man does not beat up a woman. Now go buy a new gold chain get a tantastic spray tan and man up for once.

  93. Missy Rudas is a good lawyer, too, and like Gary Asteak, she would tell Gregory to shut his mouth. He will ignore his lawyer, lose his case and then blame her.

  94. "you have called several men woman beats on here when you have only half a story."

    Mensa man Gregory has already convictd himself, but the allegations against Gregory are just that. In Schlener's case, a final PFA was entered. As a matter of law he is a woman beater. Like a woman beater, he practices denial and tries to minimize.

  95. There are more people filing false police reports and false PFA's than there are true ones. Take some time and look at the statistics. The intent of a PFA is good, however it now has become a tool to rip apart a person's character, lose employment, alienate children, etc.

    I say that if a false PFA is filed then the accuser should never be allowed to file one again, pay all legal fees, and damned publicly.

  98. She said at the end what I was going to comment. It's pretty sad, actually. He's sick. This is definitely the kind of person that should not own a gun.They shoot up a school or a public place and then everyone acts shocked.

  99. I would like to think both Mezzacappa and Gregory do not have any guns or even sharp objects for that matter.

You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
