Coincidentally, Corporate Crime Reporter released it's TOP TEN CORPORATE AND WHITE COLLAR
CRIME PROSECUTORS LIST, and the prosecuting attorney for Jersey who has led the charge in the cases swirling around McGreevey tops it. Here is what THEY had to say about Mr. Please Don't Gay Bash Me McGreevey:

"Christopher Christie, U.S. Attorney, Newark, New Jersey

Until he resigned from office last week for personal reasons, the Governor of the state of New Jersey was under investigation for public corruption.

He might still be.

To get to the Governor, federal prosecutors had go through his big financial contributors. So, they focused on one big financial contributor.

This financial contributor didn't want a witness cooperating with the federal investigation, so he lured the witness into a trap, set him up with a prostitute, and videotaped the scene.

Yes, it is New Jersey. Yes, it is public corruption. Yes, it is sordid.

The U.S. Attorney pursuing the case is Christopher Christie, a Republican conservative – tried and true.

The Governor, James E. McGreevey, is a liberal Democrat.

The financial contributor, now under indictment, is Charles Kushner.

You have to hand it to Christie. Of course, there are the charges of political motivation.

Christie, they say, wants to be Governor.

But Christie is an equal opportunity prosecutor of public corruption.

Last year, he nailed former Essex County Executive James W. Treffinger, a Republican. Trefflinger pled guilty to obstruction of justice.

To derail the investigation of his granite company, Treffinger sought to get himself appointed US attorney. He was recorded as saying that there are ''plenty of mobsters to go after – you
don't have to go after all these poor politicians trying to ply their trade."

Christie believes that the political criminal is in many ways ''worse than the street criminal because the street criminal never pretends to be anything but what he or she is."

But while public corruption has been the name of the game in New Jersey almost forever, Christie has also pursued major corporations for pollution, fraud, and false claims against the government.

In short, Christie has reinvigorated a formerly sleepy office.

Christie graduated from Seton Hall University Law School in 1987.

He then signed on with the Cranford, New Jersey law firm of Dughi, Hewit & Palatucci, where he became partner.

President Bush appointed Christie to be U.S. Attorney for New Jersey in December 2001.

Maybe he's cracking down on corporate crime and corruption because he wants to be Governor of New Jersey.

Maybe he's doing it because it's his job.

Whatever the motivation, public corruption in New Jersey ain't going away anytime soon. And better to have a Christopher Christie than someone who's asleep at the switch."
