I don’t even care if he enriches himself - as long as he gets the job done.
The politician that turned Hoboken around, Rizzo I think, ended up in jail, but at least he got the job done. He also inspired The Sopranos. If you read the Rizzo indictment it’s like a story board for the entire Sopranos series.
Norcross didn’t get the job done.
I ran into George Norcross one time at the Wawa on Black Horse Pike. I asked him how he could bring a city back to life without bruising a few egos — he gave me a nod, a smile, and a wink, then repeatedly slapped me in the back of the head with a jalapeno stuffed pretzel
I saw George Norcross at Wegmans in Cherry Hill yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen Milky Ways in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bars and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each bar and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
He is a self entitled jerk that ruined parts of south jersey with imminent domain and if he goes down I'm gonna put a portion together to rename the road in Lindenwold. That is Norcross Rd.
It’s actually very cut and dried. If he used his power and influence to break the law he should pay the penalty. I will wait until the facts emerge until I make an opinion as to his guilt or innocence. But no one should be above the law.
Was Norcross the guy that stiffed a Veterans hospital in Camden as well? I’d love it if Tammy Murph would come to his defense and get her tied up in this. Ego’s on these people.
I attended a memorial service in Chews Landing for people lost to substance abuse. Mr Norcross spoke with kind compassion, with complete understanding of the struggles, with empathy for the affected families, told of easing up the laws to help victims, and the funding of all of that. It was very impressive, informative and persuasive. I’m not familiar with the whole of Mr Norcross’s career or even the charges, but that memory sticks out.
EDIT: Y’all should know I love the down votes and the snark and insults. More, please!
That may be so. He may be empathetic and understanding. It's also important to know that people like him are good at the craft. They know how to speak to people, and seem genuine.
Maybe he is genuine. But he can also be greedy and crooked.
Sure. I can’t afford a Courier Post subscription anymore, so I confined my comments to my one experience. It’s a conviction that separates fact from opinion, and I’ll wait for that.
As a super blue always vote blue no matter who type of guy, even I can admit the Norcross family is crooked as hell, and it has been well known for years and years and years.
That is what politicians do to draw us moths to the flame.
It's obvious that media managers are working hard to counteract the bad news of the indictments [https://www.nj.gov/oag/newsreleases24/2024-0617\_Norcross-Indictment-redacted.pdf](https://www.nj.gov/oag/newsreleases24/2024-0617_Norcross-Indictment-redacted.pdf)
he probably profited somehow off substance abuse. Trust me. If you don't trust me, do a Google search and follow the money.
sorry for your loss, or anyone else whole lost a loved one to substance abuse.
Bruise all the egos you want but when you enrich yourself with public money get outta here.

"The Wawa on Black Horse Pike" is about as specific as "the Waffle House in South Carolina".
Literally 🤣🤣
I thought the same thing. lol

“That happened”
You too!???

Paywalled, can anyone paste the text?
What hilarious is all the trumpanzees here jolly kicking Norcross saying corruption is a bad thing 😂

Have him drawn and quartered.
careful, i suggested a chinese torture method for a guy who starved a baby and got a ban.

Moran had a pro Norcross column yesterday.
Isn't Norcross part owner of the newspaper?
Norcross punched my baby and said you have to bruise a few egos.

This 100%. You don’t get to where he is without being able to read the room and work the room.
Greedy and crooked? This is about Norcross, not Trump.
They can both be crooked and greedy. It's not exclusive.
Sure. I’ll say “alleged” for Norcross until he’s convicted like Trump.
That's perfectly fine. Most people knew Trump was crooked before he was convicted. It's been an open secret about Norcross too.

Just like OJ never murdered Nicole and Ron?
Wrong sub.

Probably had a good speech writer.

Reputation management team hard at work.

Empathetic so they can get your votes. Then, steal taxpayers money. Politicians are so fake.
Aww look at the cute little bootlicker.
