US Bergen County Prosecutor John L. Molinelli announced the arrest of David A. Goldenberg over the weekend in the USA. A police report claims that the arrest came about as a result of a joint investigation conducted by members of the Bergen County Prosecutor's Office Computer Crimes Unit and members of the Paramus Police Department, under the direction of Deputy Chief Richard Cary.

The arrest stemmed from an investigation following a complaint from a Paramus based corporation known as Sapphire Marketing, who specializes in high-end audio/visual systems. Representatives of Sapphire reported that they were being suspiciously and consistently underbid for contracts by a competitor for whom David Goldenberg works.
