OPINION
AMBRO, Circuit Judge.
Catherine Opdycke appeals the dismissal of her twenty-two count complaint. The pleading sets out claims under the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution against Franklin Township (New Jersey), the Franklin Township Police Department and three of its police officers, and the Franklin Township Health Department and two of its employees. There are as well claims under New Jersey statutory and common law and the New Jersey Constitution against the same defendants. Though this “shotgun complaint” usually creates “a task that can be quite onerous”…
