Whose yer daddy? Why, Chris Christie!

“ On January 2, 2009, Brian was visiting his parents in Mount Laurel while taking a break from moving to nearby Hoboken. After Brian’s former wife canceled his scheduled visit with his son, he became distraught and said something to the effect of “life’s not worth living anymore” to his mother and drove away. His mother, a trained social worker, became worried about a possible suicide risk and called 9-1-1 but hung up after having second thoughts. Law enforcement traced the call and soon arrived at the scene. The police called Brian, who was on his way to his new residence in Hoboken, and asked him to return to his parents’ home because they were worried. When he returned, the cops searched his vehicle and found two handguns, both locked and unloaded as New Jersey law requires, inside the trunk, in a box stuffed into a duffel bag with clothes. Brian was arrested and, according to his attorney, the subsequent trial and conviction were the “perfect storm of injustice.” New Jersey allows exemptions for gun owners to transport weapons if the move is for hunting purposes or if the person is relocating, but the Superior Court judge who heard Brian’s case refused to allow this statute exemption to be read to the jury. After two and half days of deliberation, the jury returned a guilty verdict and Aitken was convicted and sentenced to seven years in prison! Governor Christie  commuted Brian’s sentence to time served. It's stuff like this that can, and likelly will someday, trigger a peasant's revolt. But Rodge, what about the Superior Court judge who seemingly tilted the jury's decision?  I'm glad you asked Kim. His name is Judge James Morley.  Oh, I'm sorry.  Ex-Judge James Morley
