Democrats investigating the George Washington Bridge controversy are panning todays report released by a lawyer hired by the Christie administration.
It fails to settle the major questions surrounding the September lane closures at the bridge, the lawmakers said, and it does not contain information from all the key people involved.
"The big question of motive has not been answered. As a matter of fact, more questions have been raised," said state Sen. Loretta Weinberg, D-Teaneck, one of two co-chairs of the joint legislative committee investigating the lane closures.
Assemblyman John Wisniewski, D-Middlesex, the other co-chair, said the report is incomplete because several important figures were not interviewed; several are asserting their Fifth Amendment rights against self-incrimination, and others declined to speak to the lawyer hired by Christie.
It seems like a rush to judgment to come to a conclusion to provide the governor with a talking point so he can attempt to put this controversy behind him, Wisniewski said. But the report has factual holes that I believe make it insufficient to accomplish that intended goal.
