44 arrested in NJ probe (Louis Lanzano/Associated Press)
Last Thursday the floodgates opened and in the fragrant state we call NJ, over 44 people – in charge in some form or another of other people – were arrested in connection with a sweeping corruption and money laundering probe. Included in the arrests were:
- 5 rabbis
- 3 mayors
- a host of assemblymen
- fire inspectors
- and a partridge in a pear tree.
There is so much wrong with this picture, I don’t know where to start. From illegal fundraising, to knock-off Gucci bags to black market kidneys – yes black market kidneys – this thing runs the gamut. See a list of some of the Really Bad Boss wannabees and their crimes here.
Update: Charges against the partridge were eventually dropped.
