One year after FBI raid, Trenton Mayor Tony Mack still leads the city

    One year ago today, FBI agents entered the home of Trenton Mayor Tony Mack seeking evidence for what led to an indictment on six counts of extortion, bribery, and wire and mail fraud. 

    The pending trial is postponed until January–a mere four months before the next mayoral election.  He has not ruled out a run for reelection and may actually be soliciting campaign donations.  NewsWorks Tonight Host Dave Heller speaks with Trentonian Reporter Sharrina Navani about how Mack has managed to maintain his job and postpone his trial over the past year.
