Juvenile Bureau

The Juvenile Bureau of the Maywood Police Department is charged with the responsibility of handling all matters involving juveniles within the Borough of Maywood.  This includes all investigations of criminal activity involving juveniles, child abuse and juvenile in crisis complaints. The Juvenile Bureau serves as the liaison between the Police Department and the Maywood School System and Hackensack High School.  The Juvenile Bureau also oversees various programs within the Maywood School System including D.A.R.E. and Adopt-A-Cop .

D/Lt. Casamento is the officer in charge of the Juvenile Bureau.   Det. Anthony Korn is the primary juvenile detective who also assists with the criminal investigations of the Division.  P.O. Mary Tutschek is assigned part-time to the Juvenile Bureau and also assisted with criminal investigations.  P.O. John McVey and P.O. Anthony Korn are assigned as the D.A.R.E. Officers.

 

Members of the Juvenile Bureau regularly attended the Bergen County Juvenile Officer's Association meetings held in Rochelle Park. These meetings serve as an important source for current information on juvenile issues. The meetings also serve as an important source for networking with other juvenile officers and support service personnel in the juvenile system. This was especially important this year because of the enormous changes that continue to take place in the juvenile justice system.
