    Lawyer who led probe says 'not a shred of evidence' Christie knew of bridge scandal

    March 27, 2014

    The lawyer who led an investigation that determined Gov. Chris Christie was not involved in the bridge closure scandal told Fox News’ Megyn Kelly Thursday there is not a “shred of evidence” Christie knew anything about the closings.

    Randy Mastro, a former federal prosecutor, released a report on his team’s investigation Thursday. The report relied on interviews with officials in the Christie administration, including the governor, and 250,000 documents.

    Mastro said on “The Kelly File” his investigation was exhaustive and thorough, and in the end completely exonerated Christie.

    “There is not a shred of evidence that Governor Christie knew anything about this lane realignment decision before it happened. Not a shred,” he said.

    Mastro dismissed critics who claim the report is biased toward Christie because the firm was brought in by the governor. Mastro said he is a registered Democrat, and went into the probe with a completely open mind.

    “It serves no one’s interest, not mine or my law firm’s, not Governor Christie’s, not the governor’s office or the people of the state of New Jersey for us to do anything other than to try and get to the truth,” he said.

    The closure of lanes near the George Washington Bridge that caused four days of massive gridlock in the community of Fort Lee in September have become a major scandal for Christie, a possible 2016 Republican presidential contender. Christie said on a radio show Wednesday that the events will not affect his decisions about his political future.

    The report, issued at Mastro's New York law office, concludes that former Port Authority of New York and New Jersey official David Wildstein and ex-Christie aide Bridget Kelly were behind the closures and that they were targeting Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich. But it did not conclude why they wanted to hurt the Democrat and said there was no evidence that it was because he refused to endorse Christie for re-election last year.

    Aha-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha....:D

    So the lawyer Christie hired to investigate himself at tax payer expense and paid him a million dollars determined that Christie was innocent?

    I'll wait for the federal investigation to unfold before I break out my Christie bumper stickers thank you.

    The only thing the tax payers paid for here is Christie's attempt to smear those people that are inevitably going to turn on him the way he turned on them.

    " The chairman of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, David Samson, has resigned his position, New Jersey Governor Chris Christie said on Friday.

    "David tendered his resignation to me this afternoon, effective immediately," Christie told reporters a day after a law firm hired by his office released a report finding Christie faultless in the recent "Bridgegate" scandal."

    OK, I'm all cleaned up now. And another thing you brainless trust founders aught to do is read that 300 page monstrosity. It's a total fist pump circle jerk of a duck call stroking chump fest blaming everything on the emotional state of his female underling. What a prince. He should get mittens over there stat to put her back into a binder and on shelf until they need to abuse her again. That poor woman :(

    You're smearing the Democrat who investigated this. Are you saying the Democrat got it wrong?

    Good. You read the article. But, what does being a lawyer have to do with anything?

    The question is what does being a Democrat have to do with anything.

    You'll have to ask the investigator; he's the one who brought it up, not I:

    Mastro dismissed critics who claim the report is biased toward Christie because the firm was brought in by the governor. Mastro said he is a registered Democrat, and went into the probe with a completely open mind.

    My question to you is whether you agree with the investigation's conclusions or not.

    So this all happened right under his nose in New Jersey? He knew nothing about it?

    OK. Fine.

    Someone THIS in-tune is a great candidate for President of The United States.

    Where can I get my bumper sticker?

    God no! Not a word. They didn't interview Kelly, Stepien, Baroni, or Wildstein. What the hell could they possibly know? Do you believe the report? And for God sake why?
