View Comments
A state superior court judge dismissed a bribery charge against ex-assemblyman Jason O’Donnell on Thursday, ruling that New Jersey cannot charge O’Donnell under its bribery statute because he was not a public official at the time of the alleged bribe.
The decision by Judge Mitzy Galis-Menendez puts a dent in one of New Jersey’s most high-profile public corruption stings in years, one that led to charges against O’Donnell, then-sitting Jersey City school board president Sudhan Thomas and three others.

O’Donnell’s attorney in the matter, Leo Hurley, had argued that his client’s case was identical to that of former Jersey City Assemblyman Lou Manzo, who was arrested in 2009’s infamous operation Bid Rig for allegedly receiving $27,500 in bribes for his failed run for mayor.
However, U.S. District Court Judge Jose Linares dismissed Manzo’s case since he was not an elected official at the time, only a candidate for office. ....

Good Friday morning!
Yesterday, Democratic consultant Joshua Henne sent out his annual April Fool’s Day press release. It began: “Today, Chris Christie endorsed fellow Republican career politician Jack Ciattarelli for Governor. ‘Jack and I are cut from the same cloth, and he’s just as beloved as I was by the time I left office,’ said Christie, who polled at a whopping 15% as Governor.” ....
