New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is asking the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey to ban commercial flights between Newark Liberty Airport and Cuba. He wants longtime fugitive Joanne Chesimard, who has been living in Cuba, returned to New Jersey to face justice for killing a New Jersey State Trooper in 1973.
The Republican presidential candidate wrote in his letter to the Port Authority: “The Obama Administration may not care about the late New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster and his family, but the citizens of New Jersey absolutely do.”
