00:07Look, Chris is a slob. Everybody knows it.

00:09I know Chris better than anybody in the room.

00:11I always felt he was guilty.

00:14But what he did is he took the George Washington Bridge,

00:16which is very serious.

00:17He closed down the George Washington Bridge.

00:19And you have medical people, you have ambulances caught up.

00:22You know, this thing was closed down.

00:25And obviously he knew about it.

00:28But he blamed the young lady that worked for him and another person.

00:32And they got into a lot of trouble.

00:33She ultimately was, I don't know, exonerated,

00:36but she got out of it a little bit.

00:38But she went through hell.

00:40She was a young mother, nice person.

00:41I knew her a little bit.

00:43And another man went to jail.

00:46And Chris got off.
