It's no secret that New Jersey has always been famous for crime and corruption. Today Federal Agents arrested a diverse group of individuals in Newark, N.J. involved in political corruption, bribery, trafficking of human organs, counterfeiting consumer goods, and international money laundering. High ranking government officials were found to be accepting bribes from criminals for extra funding of their campaign ventures and Assemblymen accepted bribes to forward their building ventures but not before being caught on a grand scale.
A few big names arrested on political corruption charges include Assemblymen Daniel Van Pelt and L. Harvey Smith, newly appointed Mayor of Hoboken, New Jersey Pete Cammarano, Mayors Anthony Suarez and Dennis Elwell of Ridgefield and Secaucus, N.J., and Leona Beldini, Deputy Mayor of Jersey City, NJ. Can we say "Dirty Jersey"? Their charges range from taking bribes and accepting dirty money for campaign trails among others.
But lets not forget that there were 44 arrested! What about the Rabbis like Saul Kassin of the Syrian Sephardic Jewish Community!!!!! Oy Vey! One confidential informant claimed to have laundered over $3 million U.S. dollars through one of the New Jersey Rabbis in the past two years alone!
To me the wildest arrest so far goes to Levy Izhak Rosenbaum charged with Trafficking of Human Organs to Israel. You take the cake man!!!!!
The federal corruption ring was infiltrated by a pack of confidential informants caught in the mix of the scandals who were in hopes of "ratting" their way out the mess they put themselves in.
I can't wait to see how many more people are arrested in the coming months. I would go ahead and guess that there will be some customs agents involved in the mess and a slew of accountants to say the least. There are bound to be dozens more caught in this tangled web!
