Atlantic City’s mayor, already accused of abusing his teenage daughter, now faces a charge that he asked her to lie about how she sustained a head injury.
Marty Small Sr., 50, was indicted Tuesday, Dec. 17, 2024, with third-degree witness tampering involving the girl, whom he and his wife, La’Quetta — the New Jersey seaside gambling resort city’s superintendent of schools — were previously charged with assaulting and abusing.
The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office on Wednesday, Dec. 18, 2024, said Marty Small, a 50-year-old Democrat, asked his daughter to “twist up” a statement she had given to investigators regarding his alleged abuse of her back in January.
