This morning, at approximately 630 am, Ocean County Prosecutor Economic Crimes Unit Detectives James Conroy and Stephen T. Shadiack Jr. arrested Karl P. Scheufler, 47, of Brick (aka “Without Prejudice”) on a third degree complaint summons for filing a False Public Instrument.

Scheufler’s arrest stems from the charge of Falsifying Government Records pursuant to NJSA 2C:28-7(a).  Schuefler, who allegedly filed the false Uniform Commercial Code Financing Statement (Liens against victims) from his home in Brick, holds himself as a sovereign citizen known as “Iesus: the Christ, an irrevocable trust” and declares his current name to be “Without Prejudice.”   The matter was brought to the attention of the Prosecutor’s Office by the victims who had previous dealings with Schuefler.   Brick Township Police provided assistance.  Senior AP William Scharfenberg approved the charges against Scheufler.

He has been released to answer the charge in court at a future date.  The media and public are reminded that criminal charges are merely accusations and that the defendant is presumed innocent until and unless proven guilty
