This Week on Due Process

"Jersey Sting "

airs: Sunday October 21 at 9:30 am and 7 pm

It was the most spectacular political corruption bust in New Jersey history: the federal government's "Jersey Sting." Dozens of politicians, influence peddlers and money launderers arrested, dozens pleading guilty or convicted at trial. Among them: a rising political star like Hoboken's new mayor, Peter Cammarano, and longtime party stalwarts like Jersey City Deputy Mayor (and onetime burlesque queen) Leona Beldini. It made months of headlines, and may have helped sway a gubernatorial election.

But through it all, questions and controversy raised by the character and credibility of the sting man, Solomon Dwek, a ponzi-running grifter, convicted of bank fraud. Dwek was himself sentenced this week to 6 years in federal prison, prompting this encore presentation of "The Jersey Sting."

Tune in to "Due Process" this Sunday for a closer look at the Jersey Sting with defense attorneys, prosecutors and two reporters who, literally, wrote the book. In Sandra King's field piece: Defense Lawyer Alan Zegas, former prosecutor Jay Fahy, and Josh Margolin, co-author of the book, "The Jersey Sting."

In the studio with Sandy and co-host Raymond Brown: Joseph Hayden, who represented Cammarano; Bergen County Prosecutor John Molinelli, and the "Jersey Sting's" other author, Ted Sherman.
