The noose around her world tightens, at least for members of the Virgin Mayor’s inner circle, some of whom got indicted yesterday for taking kickbacks when they worked for a campaign in Newark.
Two of the mayor’s closest associates include his official PR person (not her), the local insurance guy – to whom the mayor gives all the town’s insurance business
These two have a number of business interconnections, including a woman along with her husband has been accused of money laundering through their firm’s office in Clifton.
She served as an aide for the Newark campaign, run by the PR guy. She is also an executive for the insurance company and is instrumental in dealing with the Virgin Mayor.
Our former writer boasts about being hired on as the mayor’s personal assistant and PR person but is in fact working under the PR guy from Newark, and so, by default, is by a very narrow degree of separation, in close proximity to this scandal.
She is discovering the hard way what it means to become a part of the inner circle. It may well be a lesson similar to one kids learn when they play with fire.
