New Jersey Gym Owners Arrested After Defying COVID Order

The co-owners of Atilis Gym in Bellmawr, New Jersey were arrested Monday after numerous instances of the business defying a state order that mandated the gym’s closure.

 

Frank Trumbetti, 51, and Ian Smith, 33, were each charged with contempt, obstruction and violating a disaster control act, according to ABC 6. The pair, which has since been released from jail, was notorious for defying Democratic New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy’s order to close fitness facilities amid the coronavirus pandemic.

 

A judge ruled Friday that Atilis was to be closed, but Smith, on the same day as the ruling, said the gym will remain open. He also insisted he will “not back down under any circumstances” in a Facebook post, according to the local outlet.

 

“[We are] disappointed that this motion for contempt was granted, however we do respect the judge’s decision and will be taking all necessary steps to see if there is an issue of appeal here,” the duo’s lawyer Christopher Arzberger told ABC 6. Trumbetti and Smith’s battle with the state has been ongoing since May 20 when the gym received a citation for remaining open.

 

“I will not close my doors again unless I’m behind bars,” Trumbetti yelled to supporters in May, according to a previous ABC 6 report. “And I guarantee you this door will be open every single day.”

 

New Jersey gyms may only operate if they convert their operations to outdoors, according to the state’s official webpage. Trumbetti and Smith instituted capacity policies, took the temperatures of clients and mandated masks in their facility, but an arrest came nonetheless, as the pair was still operating indoors, according to ABC 6.

Bernie’s Campaign Co-Chair Says Voting For Biden Is Like Eating ‘A Bowl Of Shit!’

Democratic Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders’ presidential campaign co-chair Nina Turner on Monday compared voting for 2020 presidential nominee Joe Biden to “eating a bowl of shit.”

 

In an Atlantic piece titled “Don’t Count Trump Out,” Turner was asked about voting for Biden, to which she said: “It’s like saying to somebody, ‘You have a bowl of shit in front of you, and all you’ve got to do is eat half of it instead of the whole thing.’ It’s still shit.”
