have indeed been turning. Perhaps not as slowly as I thought...Samson is teed up and there's no way he's going down for Christie.
Prosecutor Is Closing In on Gov. Christie
Theyve got him cold, says one source. He got sloppy, arrogant, and greedy. Samson will want a deal. This way, hed get one or two years. Hed have a future on the other side. He wont want to die in jail.
Fishmans timetable is unclear -- he has yet to send out target letters even to the lower-hanging fruit: Wildstein and Baroni, and Bridget Kelly and Bill Stepien, Christies former Deputy Chief of Staff and his former campaign manager, each deeply implicated in the Fort Lee/GWB debacle. One source expects Fishman to return some indictments as soon as next month. Both sources say that all of those four certainly will be indicted -- and both further note that Fishman, an Obama appointee, hopes to see the entire matter resolved before this Presidents term expires. But Fishman is really focused on Christie, says one source. Ultimately, he believes he'll get to the governor.
