Governor Christie and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo appear on a list of
more than 300 witnesses who may be called to testify in the trial over
the George Washington Bridge lane closures.
However, not everyone on the list may be called to testify, according to a spokesman for U.S. Attorney Paul Fishman.
Fishman’s office is prosecuting two former political operatives for
Christie, Bill Baroni and Bridget Anne Kelly, for shutting down access
lanes to the bridge in 2013 as part of a political revenge plot
targeting Fort Lee’s Democratic mayor, Mark Sokolich. The mayor appears
on the list and is scheduled to testify today in federal court in
Newark.
Some of the most powerful figures in New Jersey politics appear on the
list, including New Jersey lawmakers, current and former Christie
administration officials, commissioners and staff of the Port Authority
of New York and New Jersey, mayors, county officials and others.
