🚨 Hunterdon County Man Faces New Charge in Alleged False Report Case Involving Law Enforcement 🚨

A 36-year-old Hunterdon County man is facing an additional charge after a grand jury returned a superseding indictment in a case involving alleged false reports made against law enforcement.

Authorities say Randal Kelco and another defendant were previously indicted in connection with allegations that they made false sexual assault claims against New Jersey State Troopers who responded to a 2023 domestic dispute at their Bloomsbury residence.

The new indictment adds additional charges against Kelco, including allegations related to a separate false report involving a municipal police officer.

Officials say false reports and fabricated allegations can have serious consequences and impact both law enforcement and individuals who are victims of actual crimes.

The charges are allegations, and Kelco is presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
