New Jersey finds NYC police surveillance of Muslims broke no state laws, can't be blocked May 25th 2012, 06:29 TRENTON, N.J. –  Muslim leaders in New Jersey say they are angry but uncertain what their next step will be after the state's attorney general found that New York City police did not violate any laws in its surveillance of businesses, mosques and student groups in New Jersey. Several mosque leaders who attended a meeting Thursday with Attorney General Jeffrey S. Chiesa said they were shocked he found no violations of state criminal or civil laws by the NYPD in operations that many Muslims considered unjustified surveillance based solely on religion. Muslim leaders say they are contemplating everything from a boycott of law enforcement to a federal civil rights lawsuit. Others are calling for an independent investigation into the NYPD's activities. Chiesa said he found the NYPD's activities in New Jersey were legal.
