New "Law and Order, SVU": tonight's episode looks into corrupt judges and for-profit

prisons for juveniles. Good for them.

My ears perked up with this early quote: "Hudson County makes the rest of Jersey look like Switzerland."
Hudson County is the county Hoboken is in. This quote and some others (e.g., "Hiding behind the fig leaf of New Jersey's anti-fraud statutes!&quot had me dying to know: was this script written after Christie fell from grace? It sure felt like it.

Okay, I just answered my own question. I just heard:

"It's NJ. She's probably just stuck on the bridge like everyone else."

Now they're exposing the for-profit prison system, especially with regard to juveniles. Good for them.

New quote:

"And it's true what they say about Jersey prosecutors:
There are no victims, there are no perpetrators -- there are only meal tickets."

Christie and this too. Feel bad for the good people in NJ. Disturbed at those who support this. n/t freshwest Jan 2014 #1
