Christie is going down! And I don't just mean in the polls!

that many of those documents don't exist. This is going to be a problem because public records laws required them to be retained as public records since Gibson Dunn was performing their services on the taxpayers dime for a public purpose. Now here's the thing-Baroni and Kelly (as well as Wildstein) know what exists and what they've been provided in discovery. I would bet the ranch that there is a difference between what documents have been turned over and what Baroni and Kelly know for a fact should have been included. I'm not sure what their end game is. I would think that incriminating folks higher up in the chain would be beneficial to their plea bargaining positions and allowing this discovery motion to do that would be detrimental, unless they need corroboration for their version of events. I don't think it matters if Christie knew for their defense, but if they can take him down with them it means everything for their ability to make a deal. These two have practically been screaming "Make a deal with me Monty!" since the indictments came down.
