TRENTON - Of the 105 political-corruption cases the U.S. attorney for New Jersey has brought against state officials in the past five years, none is more high-profile than the indictment announced yesterday against a sitting senator who controlled millions of dollars in state aid.[color="Red"]The 40-page indictment accuses Sen. Wayne Bryant of using his clout in Trenton to steer millions in grants to two state schools that gave him no-show jobs and helped him pad his yearly pension.
“He corrupted multiple political and public agencies, according to the indictment, all to feed his own insatiable desire for more public money to put in his own pocket,” said U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie.
The once-powerful lawmaker is [color="Black"]alleged to have kicked up his yearly taxpayer-funded pension from $28,000 to $81,000 through the jobs, at which he barely showed up and performed virtually no work. Bryant, 59, applied for his retirement benefits in December, but the request is pending.
The indictment also said Bryant, who represents Camden, the state’s poorest city, worked less than 15 hours for the Gloucester County Board of Social Services over four years, yet received about $200,000, largely by billing the board for work performed by others.
A former dean at the University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey’s School of Osteopathic Medicine in Stratford, R. Michael Gallagher of Haddonfield, also was indicted.
Prosecutors say Bryant and Gallagher both gained financially from their relationship. The indictment alleges that Gallagher capitalized on Bryant’s influence to become dean, then put Bryant on the school’s payroll. In exchange, the senator, who chaired the Senate Budget Committee, looked out for the school’s interests at budget time.
If convicted, Bryant and Gallagher face mail- and wire-fraud charges that could result in lengthy prison terms and large fines. Bryant also faces bribery charges in connection with salaries he drew from UMDNJ, Rutgers University-Camden and the Gloucester County Board of Social Services. *
