“Attorneys for the son of the former Cooper Health System’s CEO want a drug charge dismissed against him, alleging the case is being prosecuted because the family publicly criticized the death investigation of his parents.
In a memorandum filed Tuesday in Somerset County Superior Court, the attorneys for Matthew Sheridan also allege that authorities lacked probable cause to search his Jeep where they found a small amount of cocaine Sept. 28, 2014, the day Cooper CEO John P. Sheridan, 72, and his wife, Joyce, 69, died.”
