by Terrence T. McDonald, New Jersey Monitor June 17, 2026 It’s Pride Month and I’m here to talk about a New Jersey police chief found to have used a homophobic slur while on the job and ended up with a slap on the wrist. The chief is Stacey Williams, who led Roselle’s police department until 2024, when he was fired after a county prosecutor’s probe concluded he used the slur while talking to subordinate officers.
