COURT HOUSE – A Cape May County grand jury handed up nine indictments April 30.
The abbreviation CDS below stands for controlled dangerous substance.
A “certain person” charge can be brought against an individual who has been previously convicted of a felony and is subsequently found in possession of a weapon.
The individuals listed are presumed innocent unless proven guilty.
Dayamara D. Diaz
Dayamara Diaz, 32, of Villas, was arrested March 30 for driving while intoxicated (DWI). The presence of a 7-year-old child in the car led to an indictment for endangering the welfare of a child, second degree.
James Dehainaut
James Dehainaut, 20, of Swainton, was indicted on 11 counts Dec. 4, 2018, related to arson, burglary and theft incidents in October 2018. This week, a new six-count indictment added to his difficulties. Dehainaut faces two counts of burglary, one of theft over $500 and one of receiving stolen property, each count is in the third degree. The fact that he involved two individuals below the age of 17 also adds a second-degree count for using a juvenile in the commission of a crime along with third-degree conspiracy.
Carlos Camacho
Carlos Camacho was indicted for third-degree possession of a CDS, cocaine, related to an incident in Middle Township in November 2018.
William J. Atkinson

Kyle L. Middleton
Kyle Middleton, 27, of Villas, faces a fourth-degree count for possession with intent to distribute marijuana. The fact that Middleton was in possession of a BB handgun added a more serious second-degree count for possession of a weapon during the commission of a CDS crime. Middleton’s 2014 conviction for aggravated assault also led to another count, this one for certain person not to have a weapon, second degree.
Caliph M. Manley
Caliph Manley, 41, of Wildwood, was indicted on three separate counts of second-degree sexual assault, along with one count of endangering the welfare of a child, second degree.
