Porsche Carjacked in Short Hills NJ

Essex County Carjacking AttorneyPolice in Short Hills NJ are investigating a reported carjacking.

A carjacking conviction can result in a sentence of 10-30 years in New Jersey State Prison.

Additionally, carjacking is an enumerated crime under the No Early Release Act (NERA), meaning that 85 percent of any sentence imposed by the court must be served before the offender becomes eligible for parole.
