A prosecutor who was sacked after attempting to indict Chris Christie's political cronies for corruption told MailOnline today about his ordeal at the hands of the New Jersey Governor's 'mafia.' Bennett Barlyn, a prosecutor for 18 years in New Jerseys Hunterdon County, has spoken out following the revelations over the Bridgegate scandal to reveal his firsthand account of being fired and shamed at the hands of Christie and his political henchmen. He said there were parallels between a criminal case he tried to prosecute before, he says, it was unlawfully dismissed and the Bridgegate scandal, where Christies staff closed off travel lanes leading to the George Washington Bridge, in order to retaliate against a Democratic mayor who had declined to endorse him for re-election.

I wonder who they're going to choose for us next.
Look for glowing stories about Jeb Bush to pop up out of nowhere!
Like many Prosecutors who act like little Napoleons.....(covers both CC and the “victim”)
Why is this guy giving an “exclusive interview” to a UK newspaper? Does the U.S. news media know something about him that indicates he is unreliable or corrupt?
Could be. The MSM/DNC will be able to easily torpedo him if he gets the nomination... based on his name alone he wouldn't stand a chance.
I still think Palin would be the biggest threat to Hillary... a woman against a woman, and Palin's been thoroughly vetted already by the MSM... there's nothing new than can dredge up on her (not that they won't make stuff up).
Hitlery needs Wall Street cash ASAP
I don’t think she can officially declare yet... she needs to wait for the right timing in order to qualify for the Federal matching money. I think she can’t officially declare for at least another year and a half, if not longer.
Link below says the prosecutor was pursuing indictments for political purposes:

They are more like Persecutors.
I wish the press would investigate Obama. Wouldn’t that be nice?
Are you kidding me? These is a well exercised tactic of the left. A left wing DA dogs a conservative politician with secret grand juries, John Doe lawsuits, well funded and publicized law suits and Rico type charges.
Just check with Tom Delay or Governor Rick Scott.
Keep in mind that Wisconson currently has a prosecutor going after the Club for Growth and other conservative groups that would be describe as “cronies” of Scott Walker by any good leftist rag. I would love to see Walker bring the hammer down on that scum prosecutor so forgive me if I shed no tears for a democrat hack who played the political persecution game and was hoisted by his own petard.
I’d like to give Barlyn a large BOO HOO!
Thanks for your post at #10
The Christie Apologists need to drop their whale and get over it....the Liberal Christie is getting harpooned. Do not run that Liberal for President
Hmmm, I’m trying to recall all of the coverage of his predecessor, Jon Corzine (crickets ...) I guess he was as pure as newly fallen snow!
