Wisniewski: “Nothing yet implicates the governor” “We don’t have any proof”

CHAIRMAN QUESTIONS WILDSTEIN’S CREDIBILITY

The purpose of the investigation in not a probe of Christie. The purpose to the change the culture of the Port Authority.

Assemblyman John Wisniewski, the Democratic Co-Chairman of the joint legislative committee investigating the George Washington Bridge lane closures last September, almost sounded as if he was defending Governor Chris Christie yesterday morning during an appearance on NBC’s Meet The Press.

In the wake of the media frenzy caused by the released of the letter written by the attorney representing David Wildstein, the former Port Authority official who order the lane closures, that asserted that “evidence exists” that Christie knew about the lane closures while they were happening, Wisniewski raised questions about Wildstein’s credibility and said emphatically, multiple times, that there is no proof that Christie was involved in the incident.
