Parsippany man charged with threatening to kill his children released from jail

(reported by the Daily Record – May 26 2017)

A Parsippany man who called a 911 dispatcher in March and said he would kill his wife and three children spent the past two months in a psychiatric hospital. He was released Friday from the Morris County jail.

Law enforcement, including members of the Morris County Sheriff’s Emergency Response Team, responded on March 22 to the Travelodge on Route 46 after a man identified as Jamel Taylor, now 34, allegedly told a 911 dispatcher around 8:30 a.m. that he would kill his wife and children.

One child’s age was not immediately available but the other two children were 3 and 2 years of age. The dispatcher also was advised by Taylor’s wife that her husband had a knife and was filling the bathtub to drown one of their children, according to court records.

SERT was able to enter the motel unit and take Taylor into custody. He was charged with endangering the welfare of children and for most of the past two months he was treated at Trenton State Psychiatric Hospital before his recent release to the Morris County jail.
