First female and Latino lead Prosecutor

Esther Suarez, a Passaic County judge and Bayonne native, is set to become Hudson County’s first female and Latino lead prosecutor after a unanimous vote by the state Senate this week.
Suarez, of Secaucus, will replace Guy Gregory, who has been the acting Hudson County prosecutor since August 2012. Suarez's appointment will run five years.
Edward DeFazio’s appointment was not renewed in 2012, and Gregory was named his a temporary replacement. DeFazio moved on to become a Hudson County Superior Court judge. The appointment of Suarez had to be agreed upon by State Senators Sacco, Stack, and Cunningham.
