Judge issues criminal summons for Christie over Bridgegate

A New Jersey judge on Thursday issued a criminal summons for Gov. Chris Christie in connection to his role in the George Washington Bridge scandal, according to a published report.

Hackensack Municipal Court Judge Roy McGeady issued a probably cause summons for Christie, the judge’s clerk confirmed.

It comes weeks after activist Bill Brennan filed a complaint against Christie citing official misconduct. Brennan said he filed the complaint over the fallout of the 2013 Bridgegate lane closures, which he said cost taxpayers millions of dollars.

Two of Christie’s top aides are now on trial for allegedly hatching the plot to close entry lanes to the GWB in Fort Lee — as political payback for that city’s mayor, who didn’t endorse the governor’s re-election bid.
