| Publisher Description: Why I Went to Prisonis the story of how a 55-year-old mother of two was sent to Federal prison. The story involves political corruption, extortion, and a major "land grab" in Ocean County, New Jersey, with the direct involvement from Governor Chris Christie (while NJ State Federal Attorney), with "strong arm" support of Political Boss George Gilmore, in the execution and cover up of crimes committed by elected and appointed public officials. Why I Went to Prison shows how both men were involved in directly sending the author to prison for two years, the sickening depth that political corruption exists in New Jersey, and how the current Federal Attorney turns a blind eye to it all. In short, this is the story of a "whistleblower" who got in the way of the "machine" and was severely punished. |
