“The U.S. Supreme Court on Thursday tossed the federal government’s case in the infamous Bridgegate scandal, clearing the convictions of two allies of former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R),” Politico reports.
“In the unanimous ruling, which further chips away at the nation’s public corruption case law, the justices concluded that the two defendants — Bridget Anne Kelly and Bill Baroni — did not defraud the government of its ‘property’ by closing off two local access lanes to the George Washington Bridge over three days in September 2013.”
