The pooperintendent: someone was repeatedly defecating on a New Jersey high school’s sports field. It was a school superintendent
Police say Thomas Tramaglini, 42, was the faecal phantom who had soiled the school grounds on multiple occasions. They say he was caught with his trousers down – literally – on Monday
A New Jersey high school discovered that a superintendent had become a pooperintendent on Thursday, after police announced that the official was responsible for human faeces that had been found, day after day, on or near its track and American football field.
The sight of human faeces – left before the school day began at Holmdel High School in New Jersey – had become a disturbingly common occurrence, so the school’s administrators turned to law enforcement to launch a whodunnit investigation.
But the mystery appeared to be solved on Monday when Thomas Tramaglini, 42, was arrested at 5:50am after being seen defecating on the American football field.
Tramaglini has led the Kenilworth School District since August 2015. The Kenilworth and Holmdel school districts are located close to one another.
“The Holmdel School Resource Officer was alerted by Holmdel High School staff and coaches that they were finding human faeces, on or near the area of the High School track / football field on a daily basis,” Holmdel police said in a statement.
