On March 28, students from Mr. Curran’s Civil Law classes visited Bayport-Blue Point alumnus Judge Tim Mazzei at the Cromarty Courthouse in Riverhead. Judge Mazzei shared his journey from Bayport-Blue Point High School to becoming a New York State Supreme Court Justice.
The students also had the opportunity to meet District Administrative Judge Hon. Andrew A. Crecca, Court Officer Sergeant Calise, and Suffolk County Commissioner of Jurors John Nunziata, each of whom provided valuable insights into their respective roles within the court system.
In addition, the students were able to observe testimony from a top geneticist at the first pre-trial hearing in the high-profile Gilgo Beach murder trial, broadcast live via closed-circuit television in an auxiliary courtroom.
This visit was part of the Alumni Connections program, created by Guidance Chairperson Dan Harrington.
