N.J. politicians, rabbis arrested in federal money laundering sweep

NEWARK -- Federal authorities arrested dozens of people today in New York and New Jersey as part of a money laundering and corruption sweep. Those arrested included several New Jersey public officials and rabbis.

The suspects are scheduled to appear in U.S. District Court in Newark later today. Those arrested include Assembly Daniel Van Pelt (R-Ocean), Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano, Secaucus Mayor Dennis Elwell and Jersey City Deputy Mayor Leona Beldini, and Jersey City Council President Mariano Vega. Nearly 20 people, including Cammarano, Elwell, and Vega, have already been led into the FBI building in Newark to face the charges.


Ok first of all I love it that out of 5 names listed only Van Pelt has (R) next to his name. The other four are democrats but who cares, right. At least they had balls to mention that Elwell just won democratic primaries and Cammarano was sworn in as mayor of Hoboken on July 1st. Wow being arrested on federal charges just 22 days after becoming a mayor. I thik that's a new record right there. Secondly they mention rabbis in the title but nothing about them in the article itslef. From what I gathered there are some New York rabbis involved. Oy gevolt!
 

UPDATE: redheadrat just posted a link to more information on rabbis as well as several awesome videos. The best morning ever in quiet a while!

 

UPDATE#2: Another update from AP on rabbis:

In separate money laundering complaints, several individuals from Brooklyn and New Jersey were charged with offenses ranging from the trafficking of kidneys from Israeli donors to laundering proceeds from selling fake Gucci and Prada bags. It was not immediately clear how the money laundering arrests were connected to the corruption arrests.

Итак, подводя итого кошачьего ликбеза, выясняем, что: твоя подруга – пантера Багира

Черная пантера-аристократка. Умна, грациозна, пластична. Бесстрашна и хитра. Согласно книге Киплинга Багира - самец, однако в классическом русском переводе «Маугли», а также в советском мульфильме «Маугли», Багира - женского пола. Багира родилась в неволе в зверинце раджи, и после смерти матери начала тосковать по свободе. Когда она достаточно выросла и стала сильной, то смогла сломать замок клетки и сбежать в джунгли, где благодаря своей хитрости и проворности завоевала уважение всех зверей, кроме тигра Шер-Хана. Всё это Багира однажды рассказывает Маугли, и никто, кроме него, не знает, что когда-то она сидела на цепи
