New Jersey’s king of conflicts of interest, David Samson, has resigned his job as Chris Christie’s corrupt Chairman of the Port Authority.
Bridgegate has brought to light numerous instances where clients of Samson’s law firm got huge contracts from the Port Authority, and Mr. Samson in turn got huge legal fees. As rocks started getting turned over, sleazy Sampson tried to recuse himself from a vote favoring one of his clients two years after the fact.
I’m glad he’s finally gone, but he needs not just to leave the Port Authority, he needs to go to jail.
