Expect More Christie Aides To Be Hit With ‘Bridgegate’ Subpoenas

Posted by | January 12, 2014 19:39 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly Politics Top Stories


After a week of e-mail and text revelations surrounding the closing of George Washington Bridge lanes, there are far more questions than answers.

Legislative subpoenas could be served to the aides of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie as early as Monday sources told ABC News today.

Christie has been under intense political scrutiny after it was revealed that some of his top political aides shut down key traffic lanes on the George Washington Bridge — the busiest bridge in the world — in September for what appear to be politically motivated reasons.

The bridge is one of the most trafficked in the country and leads from New York City directly to the town of Fort Lee, N.J. The lanes were allegedly closed by Christie aides and staffers at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the agency that oversees the bridge, in retribution for the mayor of Fort Lee’s refusal to endorse Christie for governor.

Christie has denied any knowledge of the motivation behind the lane closures and so far no evidence has been shown that he knew about the reason for the lane closures.

Originally the closures were said to be part of a traffic study.
