After the mandatory perp walk and arraignment, Mayor David Delle Donna and his wife Anna were each released on $100,000 bond.
As The Ridge Nightfly, a Somerset County blog which posted on the story earlier this evening puts it so well --
As usual, the most astonishing thing is not that they were corrupt, but that they put their futures into the toilet for “plastic surgery, dog accessories and gambling trips to Atlantic City…about $1,000 in department store gift cards and bottles of liquor”. In New Jersey it seems that failures of ethics are accompanied by failures of imagination and a sense of proportion.Sooner or later Christie's darts have to start hitting the Union County map.
Don't they?
