Weinberg wants Zisa to resign: "The Silence has been Deafening"

by: Jason Springer

Wed May 26, 2010 at 10:15:11 PM EDT



After first surrendering to authorities for insurance fraud charges at the end of April, Hackensack Police Chief Ken Zisa was charged today with official misconduct relating to a 2004 assault and robbery. Following the news of the additional charges, State Senator Loretta Weinberg called for his resignation from the county elections board:
"Even though Mr. Zisa has been charged with serious breaches of the public trust, he still enjoys a position as a commissioner on the Bergen County Board of Elections. How someone facing such serious charges of misusing their office can remain in any public post - especially one that oversees the fairness of our election process - is beyond me.

"I have been waiting patiently for the Governor or our own Democratic Party leader, to call for Mr. Zisa's resignation from the elections board. The silence has been deafening."

For all the talking that Christie did as US Attorney, he has been virtually silent when it comes to the FBI Raids in Toms River, charges against then Hunterdon Sheriff Deborah Trout and in this case. It will be interesting to see if either Christie or Wisniewski respond to the call from Weinberg and the latest developments.
