In October 2021 Wesley Rucker was being treated in the emergency room of Riverview Medical Center when hospital personnel noticed he had a handgun in his waistband. The Tinton Falls resident told hospital security that he was a member of DEA and produced a fake badge. The charges came down earlier this month with Rucker facing up to 13 years in prison and over half a million dollars in fines.
