The Democrat Governor's pal was just doing his job, following standard procedure. There is no record of any Democrat Governor's pal ever violating a citizen.

'He did it because he could'. . . Liberals are not defined or contained, by any moral parameters.

The leadership of the New Jersey rat party is a septic tank of crooked money men, trial lawyers, and (yes) the mafia. Hence scum like Robert "the Torch" Torricelli, Corzine, Lautenberg, and that grinning monkey sociopath McGreevey.

What a nice guy... the skinny was in the last graph of the article: Since his first gubernatorial campaign in 1997, McGreevey has received at least $369,050 from Kushner, Kushner's family members and employees of Kushner's Florham Park-based firm, which is valued at $1 billion. He has also bundled more than $1 million in contributions to McGreevey over the years.

Seems like this rich friend of McGreedy thought that he could get away with anything by buying, cheating, and stealing. Hope you enjoy being the prison bitch and that you take that slimy p.o.s. McGreedy with you.

Hardly in Disgrace, Torricelli Emerges as a Trenton Power
The New York Times

Mr. Torricelli's exact role in negotiations to buy the Nets is also unclear. He is a friend of Senator Corzine, and has worked with Charles Kushner, the developer and Democratic Party fund-raiser who is reportedly teaming with Mr. Corzine to bid on the franchise. But neither Mr. Corzine nor Mr. Kushner has spoken publicly about Mr. Torricelli's involvement, and an official close to Mr. Corzine said the senator had not discussed his bid with Mr. Torricelli.

This guy is THE prime candidate to be the "Marc Rich of the Aughts."

Authorities said Kushner wanted to use the tape to "gain leverage" over the witness.

But didn't he throw that leverage away once he sent the tape to the man's wife? I'm afraid it doesn't sound like blackmail to me, if he never made use of the leverage. That's not to say crimes weren't committed, but hiring a prostitute isn't below the standards of a democrat, and doesn't carry much of a penalty.

...pleaded not guilty to witness tampering, obstruction of justice and promoting interstate prostitution. .....The charges also include Kushner's alleged attempt to similarly sway a second witness in the case, another former Kushner employee. In that instance, however, the witness turned down another prostitute's erotic overture.

This story screams out to me "organized crime & democratic party political insider."
