Out on bail, junkie charged in new smash-and-grab burglary

CLIFFVIEW PILOT HAS IT FIRST: A heroin junkie out on bail in connection with a smash-and-grab burglary was again arrested by Maywood police – caught once more on surveillance video – after smashing through the front glass door of a liquor store and making off with lottery tickets and cigarettes, authorities said this morning.

Robert A. Bodurka, 44, and his fiancé, Barbara L. Raabe, 32, both of Rochelle Park, were stopped less than 90 minutes after Maywood Wine & Liquors on East Passaic Street was burglarized, Detective Mark Gillies told CLIFFVIEW PILOT.

Inside her car: proceeds from the burglary, the detective said.

A judge set a higher bail for Bodurka this time: $50,000 cash. He’s charged with burglary, theft, criminal mischief and heroin possession. The arrest also violates his parole — again. Bodurka’s rap sheet extends back 20 years.

Although arrested on Jan. 9 for a pair of break-ins, Bodurka was back on the street two days later after Raabe’s mother posted his bail.

Raabe was ordered held on $25,000 cash bail in this week’s incident, charged with receiving stolen property and crack possession.

Meanwhile, an ex-con accused of working with Bodurka in a similar smash-and-grab burglary on West Pleasant Avenue is free on bail after being arrested at 8:20 p.m. Wednesday in Paterson.
