A 27-year-old New Jersey janitor who identified as a Satanist has been sentenced to eight years in prison for deliberately contaminating cafeteria food with feces, urine, and other bodily fluids at Elizabeth F. Moore School in Bridgeton, part of the Upper Deerfield Township School District. The case, which horrified the community, involved shocking acts of food tampering and the possession of child sexual abuse material.
Giovanni Impellizzeri’s crimes came to light after parents reported explicit videos on Telegram showing him performing sexual acts on school items and contaminating food. Police recovered messages where he admitted to spiking meals, including a confession: “I put bleach in their food before. They were fine, just a little sick. Oh, well. Not my problem.” He also detailed mixing feces into taco meat, boasting, “They ate the s ** right up.”*
Disturbing footage revealed Impellizzeri masturbating and urinating on cafeteria bowls and pillows, as well as placing bread on his penis, anus, and testicles before spitting on it. In one video, he sprayed bleach on cucumbers while taunting, “They’re going to get so f ing sick off this s ,” then resealed the container for student consumption.Items matching those in the videos were found at the school, prompting a full sanitization by the Cumberland County Department of Health to prevent any further risk to the children’s health..
Impellizzeri pleaded guilty to second-degree official misconduct and third-degree possession of child sexual abuse material as part of a plea deal, which dropped charges of aggravated assault, child endangerment, and food tampering. He must serve five years before parole eligibility.
At his sentencing, Impellizzeri apologized, stating, “I wish I could go back in time and not do it,” while his lawyer claimed her client was “not a bad person” but he just “did a bad thing.
