Sketchy. This whole story doesn't seem to add up

absolute cover up! Why so long any common man it would have been one day!,Bunch of B.S.

Everybody is so quick to believe the worst just because someone is well known. I do t know him, but I do know a "nobody" that was involved in a fatal (it's mandatory that blood is taken) and it took almost two months as well. People need to stop starting rumors and focus on worrying about the families of those involved. It's a tragedy for both sides.

Are the first two commenters here seeing black helicopters outside their houses, too?

For corn's sake. It takes 6 weeks to get a thorough toxicology report back.

"Sketchy" and "cover up?"

Ahem.. Perhaps you'd like to enlighten us all with your proof?

Yes, I can see where you would automatically condemn the State Police detectives and the Ocean County Prosecutor's Office as acting fishy here. I'm sure Freeholder Kelly holds their jobs and funding in his iron first.

What a slew of nuts you are.

Rahrah thanks for your comment...people spend way to much time getting their heads wrapped around others business just because their name is known.

To the first two commenters...had you been in this situation we wouldnt be reading articles about it, the press would brush it under the carpet...find something else to worry about

the first two are nothing but "commentors". Empty words meant to rile or stir something up. lolol...dumb is a better word. This was a tragedy and could happen to anyone - public figure or not - and it would be sad.

Some of you are a disgrace. Are you doing this for political ends? If so, you are sick and should seek counseling. The Man volunteered for the test; it was negative. Move on and get a life. Both families have been through a lot. Why can't you respect their privacy?

I don't think most people are aware of just how much work goes into a fatal accident investigation. These things can take months to fully complete, the final case file several inches thick. The cops don't just walk onto the scene & say "oh look, that's what happened" . They are specialized units that receive extensive training. The damage to the vehicles are assessed, photos are taken, evidence is collected, skid marks are measured, lasers are used to measure scenes, mathematical equations are used to determine speed, witness statements are taken at the convenience of the witnesses. Autopsy & toxicology reports take weeks. And they don't generally work only one case at a time. Do some research on the Internet, fatal accident investigation = long, thorough & complicated process, not necessarily cover-up

AMEN well said... Ian, skizma, and Theodore.... !!!
Unless this was your bro, father, or son...its none of your business
to care so much as to stir the pot !
Its over... the end ...move on to something else to complain about !

Accidents happen. I don't think this case was handled any different than any other fatal accident. taking a blood test proves there was no alcohol or drugs involved. I bet all the people that were involved in this accident and their families are all upset. even though kelly was not at fault he will carry the mental burden of this accident the rest of his life. this is why they call it accidents. I am sure the family of the cyclist is very upset and by all rights they should be. they lost a loved one. but because Mr. Kelly is a figurehead he is going through extreme scrutiny which is unnecessary. please think how many times we were almost involved in a serious accident or was in a serious accident. everyone's quality of life has been altered forever. just for the record usually the blood reports are held back to the final report. in this case they were released before the final report. Please let law enforcement do their job.

May 9, 2012, Essex Cty, Judge C.A. Murray announced
that the Essex Cty. Grand Jury indicted A. Nunez 20, for
first-degree aggravated manslaughter, second degree
vehicular homicide, second degree assault + 4th degree
aggravated assault by automobile in the death of Ms. A. Nelson.
Nunez the driver was driving when his auto hit a utility pole
and the young woman-Nelson was thrown from the rear window
suffered severe head and body trauma injuries ... she died.
This was in West Orange, NJ Sept. 2010.
Things take time for the system to work through all the details.
Many are watching the officials. Much to consider in this tragic
incident and the loss of a young man.

It is what it is. My thoughts go out to this young mans family. God Bless!

This REEKS of a cover-up. People need to question more, it's a shame that this happened, but we need to hold our officials accountable.

yeah i guess no one wiil take responsibility for this tragic death!...Its horrible that this happened and I'm sure the protectors of Mr. Kelly's legasy will want to see this nightmare go away.Remember Ted Kennedy!

@Michele Delaney and kramdon...
you two should just put a sock in it now.
The one that should take responsibility for the accident has died. HE tried to PASS on the RIGHT then tried to move back into the lane, there was a witness !
Just because it didn't go the way you wanted it to, doesn't mean there was a cover up. kramdon, OMG what drama !!! Remember Ted Kennedy? ARE YOU frigging kidding me? There is NO comparison.... NONE... go back and read your history !
UGH..... you people just slay me, really.
Give it up and let it go....Go find another topic to harp on.

RedonRed-

There was a "witness" that proves nothing. Could someone had been called to get there before the cops did? Happens all the time with truckers and others. How do we know that the "witness" was actually there the whole time and really did see the accident happen? We don't but we will take the story of the "witness" and Kelly as the truth because no one else was there to see it.

My retired deputy chief of police relative told me
(based upon what's been reported/spoken of ... he Kelly was turning
left into on-coming traffic), anyone who does such
a move in any on coming traffic without being sure of
a clear path is guilty of a serious traffic violation. He said
it's highly possible Kelly did not make that observation ...
I cannot understand but am convinced based upon
the immediate report by the state police at the scene
a cover up may be perpetrated ...
he also stated based upon 34-years of police experience
in New Jersey, a traffic violation combined with a mortality
is surely something the family should be making a complaint
at the state government level ...
but does also understand that politics often is complicit.
Kelly the only witness ... wrong, the dynamics of such an accident
show there was a move on the part of Kelly, he did not have a clear
path to make such a move into the biker and any traffic ... bad
driving judgments are made every day in our area ... I see it all the time
with cell phone use and drivers coming straight at me ...
FACTS are FACTS ... any such prefabrication is also a felony.
Young bike drivers are a serious target ... rest in peace
young man!

is anyone aware that Kelly is-was the real candidate for County Sheriff ???
The old timer who's running refused to step away ... Freeloads had to back
the current Sheriff ... what joke ... Ocean County Cronyism is surely ALIVE ...
WELL? NOT SURE ... MOVEMENT IS AFOOT TO BREAK THINGS UP ...
FOLKS have to gall to tell me there is no politics involved at the county and
municipal levels ?????
