Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small's home was raided by armed police officers as part of an ongoing investigation into a "family matter," which Small claims is a "political" attack. The raid came just hours before the arrest of Constance Days-Chapman, the principal of Atlantic City High School and Small's former campaign manager, who was charged with failing to report child abuse allegations. Small denies any wrongdoing and alleges that the raid and arrest are politically and racially motivated. The Atlantic City Prosecutor’s Office maintains that its officers acted professionally during the raid.
