UPDATE: 2:15 P.M. Friday

Jay Sears was released from federal custody on Friday afternoon after posting a $250,000 bond, which was secured after one of his friends put up her Quogue home as collateral.

As part of the agreement, Mr. Sears will be placed under house arrest and must wear an electronic monitoring bracelet at all times. He will be staying at the Quogue home of his friend, only identified as Gerta, and is not allowed computer access. He is also forbidden from seeing, talking to or, in any way, communicating with those under the age of 18 unless a parent or legal guardian is present.

He also had to agree to surrender his passport by Wednesday, February 20, and must submit to a psychological evaluation within three weeks.

Before allowing him... more

Here's my analysis of this story as it relates to our wonderful community of bloggers on 27east.

Here is a fairly clear case of someone doing awful things and not one comment from NATURE, PBR, NATIVE, CHEIF1, and all you others negative bloggers .....

Want to build a new grocery store in Westhampton and there's like 100 comments, want to upgrade a bakery to a cafe and all the comments come out.

Bail denied - good call judge! Our community is not safe with this guy out ...more

Since you made this personal right off the bat (with your POSITIVE comment, give us a break!) . . .

what a pity indeed!

Please read previous articles and comments. [links under Mr. Sears photo at top of page]

Then apologize.

Then please look up the definitions of "negative" and "positive."

PS -- Check your avatar too please, both for the text and photo -- really "positive" vibes, right? Thank you.

I agree with your assessment. 6 comments total. leaves things open to a lot of interpretation. this behavior is an absolute epidemic in our society and its coming to light closer to home now. time to turn those flashlights on people and rid the bugs of society.

What is up in Quogue? This guy with kiddie porn, the tip jar stealer, a Quogue cop with an order of protection against him. The old Mayor is already in jail for stock fraud. The Village seems like quite a mess. Are the Quogue Police keeping track of Mr. Sears? How is that going to work with their track record?

Well, on the plus side.. It finally gives the Quogue cops something to do... Instead of sit around in their cars all day, watching people try to abide by the painful 30mph speed limit.
