NJ Gov. Murphy stands firm behind AG amid Norcross indictment
Gov. Phil Murphy says he has full faith in the state attorney general following the indictment of George Norcross, one of the most powerful men in New Jersey who is also an ally of the governor.
When Murphy first took office in 2018, he openly criticized the tax break program and established a task force to investigate it. But over the years, he has made his peace with Norcross and recently appeared at Norcross-sponsored fundraisers. Sen. Bob Menendez is on trial on bribery and corruption charges that involve half a million dollars in cash, gold bars and a Mercedes Benz. He is accused of accepting bribes in exchange for help for the Egyptian government and three businessmen in New Jersey.
