Federal agents arrested and charged 11 New Jersey officials with taking bribes in exchange for giving public contracts to a fake insurance brokerage set up by investigators. The investigation netted five members of an Atlantic County school board, two state Assemblymen, the mayor of Passaic, a current and a former Passaic city council member and the chief of staff to Newark’s city council president. The investigation began in mid-2006 amid evidence of corruption in the Pleasantville School District.
