Here's the stories you'll be talking about on the New Jersey 101.5 Morning Show with Eric Scott on Tuesday:

⬛ Unlicensed NJ driver hits, kills own baby while moving car

🔶Baby killed in garage
🔶 Mom was at wheel, cops say
🔶 No valid driver's license

A 30-year-old Ocean County mother was facing a criminal charge on Monday, after what authorities called a “tragic accident” that ended in her infant son’s death.

Wendy Castillo-Torres, of Lakehurst, has been charged with causing death while driving without a valid driver’s license, following the awful incident on Saturday evening.

Around 6:15 p.m., Jackson Township police responded to an address on Grawtown Road, and found an unresponsive ten-month-old baby critically hurt.

He was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

⬛ NJ parents could get paid leave for school events in new bill

🍎 New bill would give parents more breathing room for school events
🍎 The New Jersey Business and Industry Association supports the bill
🍎 One critic says the legislation is confusing

New Jersey parents are often stretched thin and can't attend school events like parent-teacher conferences, graduations, and extracurricular activities.

State Sen. Vincent Polistina, R-Atlantic, says his bill helps working parents who are constantly pressed for time.

"We've heard over the years about the need to get parents more involved in children's education, and this is really a bill to try to do that," Polistina said.

A new bill in the state Senate would give employers tax credits if they provide paid leave to workers who take off to attend these school functions.

Each employer would get tax credits for up to two days of paid leave for parents to attend school events. That includes extracurriculars and meetings with school staff.

The program is entirely voluntary for employers. A business can choose not to give its workers paid time off for school events, but will miss out on the tax credit incentive.

⬛ New Jersey firefighter's shocking, angry birthday rant goes viral

🔷 Videos on TikTok go viral
🔷 NJ firefighter ‘exposes’ wife at party
🔷 Curse-filled rant spurs lots of reactions

A New Jersey firefighter used his own birthday party to expose his wife as an alleged cheater, in videos that have gone viral on TikTok.

Nick Galante was celebrating turning 40 when he called up his wife, Samantha Egues, with a microphone in hand.

He also held a ring box, leaving the crowded room guessing as to what was about to happen.

He had his wife remove her wedding rings, then aggressively kissed her before saying, “I f***ing know everything."

Galante then launched into a profanity-laced rant, as seen on Tiktok by The_Facts_Dude, among other accounts.

He is a captain with the Belleville Fire Department, where he has been a member since 2012, according to a LinkedIn profile under his name.

The Nutley couple married less than four years ago and are now parents.

Several clips of the R-rated rant have racked up millions of views on social media, as other users have stitched reactions and theories on the relationship drama.

Galante then threw anyone out who supported his wife and kept the music going at his party, another clip posted to TikTok shows.

🚨Video shows a large number of teens running around the mall
🚨7 juveniles were arrested, none were from Edison

EDISON — Seven juveniles were arrested Saturday night after 300 teens gathered at a Central Jersey mall.

The teens showed up around 8 p.m. at the Menlo Park Mall in Edison, according to Mayor Sam Joshi. Video of the event shows large groups of teens standing around the mall while others ran screaming through the food court. Stores dropped their gates as the crowd size grew and bad behavior increased.

One of the teens faces charges of assaulting a police officer while others face disorderly conduct charges, according to Edison Police Chief Thomas Bryan. No weapons were found by police and no one was injured.

⬛ Feds drop Newark mayor case but charge congresswoman

🔴 U.S. Rep LaMonica McIver charged with trespass
🔴 Several Democrats were arrested at a Newark ICE facility on May 9
🔴 Newark Mayor Ras Baraka appeared in federal court Thursday

NEWARK — Congresswoman LaMonica McIver has been charged with federal crimes in connection with her arrest outside a Newark immigration detention facility earlier this month, according to interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba.

The Trump-appointed prosecutor said Monday that McIver is charged with assaulting, impeding or interfering with law enforcement. The announcement came after several news reports on Friday said that the charges were imminent.

Interim U.S. Attorney Alina Habba also said that her office was dismissing the misdemeanor case against against Newark Mayor Ras Baraka, who was arrested after he attempted to join three members of New Jersey’s congressional delegation inspecting the facility in their oversight capacity. Habba said the decision was reached “for the sake of moving forward" and invited the mayor to the facility.

McIver’s attorney, Paul Fishman, the former U.S. attorney for New Jersey, issued a statement calling the decision to charge McIver “spectacularly inappropriate."
