The Jersey Sting
Ted Sherman and Josh Margolin
Review
On the morning of Thursday, July 23, 2009, FBI agents arrested forty-four persons in New Jersey and New York in one of the greatest coordinated operations in the agency’s history. The ongoing trials arising out of this operation have added a new chapter to the Garden State’s notable history of political and financial corruption. Those arrested included the mayor of Hoboken, New Jersey, a member of the New Jersey legislature, dozens of politicians and local government officials, and several rabbis. The charges included bribery, brokering the sale of kidneys, and laundering money through Jewish charities. The key figure in this operation was Solomon Dweck, a corrupt real estate promoter and the son of an influential Syrian rabbi in Deal, New Jersey. Dweck was facing a lengthy prison term for a variety of real estate scams when he agreed to wear a wire for the federal government. Because he had become an informer, Dweck became a pariah to his own father and an outcast among the Syrians.
