New Jersey residents rip school board over vile text messages from five male members attacking MAGA mom
New Jersey residents tore into a school board after five members sent vile texts about a MAGA mother.
Five men - Vice President Chad Hyett, Scott Semaya, Lenny Thor, Mitesh Gandhi, and Nirav Kadakia - have been exposed for allegedly writing disgusting text messages about MAGA mom-of-three and board member, Danielle Bellomo.
All five men, whose group chat was named ThisB**chNeedstoDie, were running for the three open seats on the Marlboro Board of Education.
During a six-hour meeting on Tuesday, more than 100 parents of schoolchildren ripped into the board, requesting it enact its civility policy after the texts were revealed.
'Five men ganging up on a woman? That’s pathetic, in my mind,' Doug Moore, who has a daughter in kindergarten, said, according to the New York Post.
'It made me sick to my stomach. It’s embarrassing. This is just 100 percent wrong. No apologies? What are we doing? Do the right thing.'
Resident Eugene Genin implored that the five men do not 'belong around children.'
Resident Mark Chesler said the board was more concerned about their 'personal agenda' than about youngsters.
MAGA mom-of-three and board member, Danielle Bellomo, was the subject a group chat where five men running for the three spots on Marlboro Board of Education
The group chat was named ThisB**chNeedstoDie and Scott Semaya allegedly wrote a message discussing Bellomo's nipples
He said: 'You continue to denigrate each other at every turn, and you do it with a twisted sense of pride.'
The group chat was revealed after someone took a photo of Semaya typing. Semaya has since dropped out of the race.
Bellomo and others questioned by the civility policy hadn't been enacted, which says the district will not tolerate threats against board members. It also allows members to be banned if they engaged in disruptive behavior.
A vote to kick out Hyett was not successful.
After the hours-long meeting, the board went into an executive session. Bellomo did not attend the meeting.
Bellomo has accused the board of not protecting her and not taking any action following the vile messages.
The Marlboro Police Department is actively investigating the messages, but no charges have been pressed.
Bellomo said she has faced threats for months and is certain there are more 'terrifying messages' in the chat she hasn't seen.

Scott Semaya (pictured), 38, allegedly sent the jaw-dropping messages during a July school board meeting
'There's definitely additional information that police are in possession of,' she told The Post.
In the group chat, Semaya was caught talking about the mother's nipples.
'Bellomo must be cold - her nips could cut glass right n-,' Semaya was allegedly pictured writing to the group.
The vile sentiment was leaked on social media over the past week, sending shockwaves through the school board and members of the well-off Marlboro community.
The next day, Marlboro’s Democratic mayor, Jonathan Hornik, addressed the alleged inappropriate behavior.
He said the texts were 'completely unacceptable' and said 'those responsible are clearly not equipped to hold public office.'
'We can disagree with one another without resorting to hate, anger and violence, and I call upon all those in positions of responsibility, regardless of political affiliation to condemn this inexcusable and outrageous behavior,' he wrote.
The Daily Mail has reached out to the five men and Bellomo for comment.
