Atlantic City Mayor & Family: From Indicted & Divided, To Vindication & United
Try to imagine a family with both parents indicted at the same time — with two school-aged children at home, and absolutely everything is on the line.
Oh, and you’re facing a criminal trial — versus your own daughter who is on the other side of a so called criminal dispute.
This Is Where Marty & La’Quetta Small & Family Were

An aggressive, likely politically motivated prosecutor was working overtime to throw the “kitchen sink” at them.
In one swoop, Marty and La’Quetta Small faced losing everything.
- Their freedom.
- Their Family.
- The two top jobs in the City of Atlantic City.
Marty Small Faced His Trial First
Atlantic City Mayor Marty Small faced his critical tipping point, moment of truth first. Marty Small refused to accept a plea deal and he insisted on facing his jury of peers and testifying at his criminal trial from the witness stand.
Marty Small and his attorney’s, Ed Jacobs, Lou Barbone and Jordan Barbone shredded Atlantic County Prosecutor Will Reynolds at trial.
The Marty Small victory was so big that there would be no criminal trials for La’Quetta Small or Constance Days-Chapman — as Reynolds promptly moved to dismiss their criminal cases after being thrashed by Marty Small at trial.


That Was Then — This Is Now
Now, we return to the present day time. The Small Family is once again united and they recently enjoyed a family gathering, whereby they celebrated their daughter Jada’s acceptance to Kean University.
