Some of us predicted this was going to happen. I'm not even surprised it was a unanimous verdict in the Supreme Court.

I wouldn't even bother sitting on a Federal jury of any kind, since at least 95% of the things listed in the Federal criminal code shouldn't even be Federal crimes.

The two were convicted of fraud for lying about a fake traffic study in order to justify the lane closures.

P.S. -- The Supreme Court's reasoning here is ultimately going to end up getting a whole other set of Federal court cases tossed: the ones against those parents who submitted phony college applications on behalf of their children.

You don’t see many 9-0 SCOTUS votes.

It was much ado about nothing.
The New York newspapers went wild over it, both the Post and the Daily News.

The only person who should have been charged was Chris Christie. He was governor and he’s a vindictive, mean SOB. There’s no way he didn’t know about this. None.
