7. Bridgegate. Samson’s guilty plea was the opening act for one of the most-covered political stories of 2016 in New Jersey: the Bridgegate trial. In that case, two Christie appointees (former Port Authority Deputy Executive Director Bill Baroni and former Christie Deputy Chief of Staff Bridget Kelly) were found guilty on nine counts of conspiracy and related charges for misusing Port Authority property as a way to enact political retribution against Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich for not endorsing Christie for re-election in 2013. While the closures happened three years ago in 2013, the trial renewed public interest and attention on the case. Now, the case is in limbo as defendants pursue a re-trail or acquittal.
