Bridgewater tables Hobbstown land deals after residents raise concerns

BRIDGEWATER – After questions were raised about the future use of the properties, the Township Council tabled ordinances to buy three lots in the historic Hobbstown community . The council was scheduled Nov. 5 to adopt an ordinance to buy a vacant half-acre lot on Richard Street for $65,000 from Eric Murdock, a former NBA player, and Darrow Murdock, the township's former tax collector. The council also tabled the introduction of an ordinance to purchase two other lots in Hobbstown for $165,000. The Sussex Avenue properties are owned by Nancy Jean Field, Glenn Field and William Robinson. Confusion about the acquisitions arose because the Richard Street ordinance stated that money for the purchase would come from the township's Affordable Housing Trust Fund.

Found with multiple sharp-force injuries in June 2026, the young mother’s homicide remained largely out of the public eye until a massive law enforcement presence swarmed the family property this week. With the autopsy report heavily redacted and the prosecutor's office maintaining absolute silence regarding potential targets, the removal of physical evidence from the home represents a pivotal moment in an investigation seeking to deliver concrete answers to an anxious suburban community.
