Norcross off the hook?

Not a fan of Norcross but this indictment sounded incredibly weak. NJ Attorney General’s Office is a joke. The number 2 person in the office has very little experience. She was in the Union County Prosecutor’s Office starting out and lost I believe all of her 5 trials. She somehow was named Acting Prosecutor at Union County a year after she left the office. A person who was completely unqualified ran the office. She ran the Union County Prosecutor’s Office into the ground. She Was sued numerous times.
Although incompetent, she is now the second in command at the AG’s office. Her fingerprints are all over the almost 4 year investigation of the Clark Police Chief. She also was involved in overseeing the Norcross investigation. That’s what you get.

The weird thing about this is that Gov Murphy was out in support of Norcross along with Christie, Corzine and McGreevey. So it doesn’t seem that this indictment was political. The case from the indictment seemed very weak to me from the outset. I don’t think this was political as the indictment was more a product of incompetence by the AG’s office.
Don’t get me wrong, Norcross is shady but this indictment was lame.
Platkin bucked Murphy last year on eliminating the county line, which (allegedly) made Murphy furious, so I don't think that they are as close as they once were.
Well, it does not take Murphy off the hook. His appointments on AG’s were horrific. On paper Grewal at least looked qualified but he ended up being a disaster. Grewal, Andrew Bruck and the worst of all Platkin. He nominated Platkin even though he previously screwed up the the rape allegation of Katie Brennen. He later appoints him AG! You can’t make this stuff up.
