Sounds like something big has gone down. The list of suspects is interesting....more religious hypocrisy? We'll have to wait and see...

US rabbis arrested in crime probe

 

 

Two mayors, rabbis and politicians are among some 30 people arrested in a major corruption and money-laundering investigation, say US authorities.

 

Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano, Secaucus Mayor Dennis Elwell, and Assemblyman Daniel Van Pelt are among those said to have been arrested in New Jersey.

 

Federal prosecutors said several rabbis were also detained in the states of New York and New Jersey.

Newark Mayor Cory Booker said it had been "an unbelievable morning so far".

 

Cars were said to be backed up four deep with suspects outside the FBI's office in Newark, New Jersey's largest city.

 

A news conference is scheduled for later on Thursday.
