The tapes are important. The US Attorney is still doing his work. I think those in control of this were lucky the outcomes of the people weren't worse and I am sure that will enter into the decisions by the US Attorney.
The tapes will have profound impacts on elections. No citizen of NJ wants to be that distraught or wants to hear a 911 operator upset over the lack of speed of their emergency responders.
If there were lies stated and the lies were under oath, then they have will trouble. If the lies were not under oath, then it was politics and nothing more. Lies don't go over well with people at election time.
Governor Christi discharged the people in his administration that are involved and has apologized to the mayor and citizens of Fort Lee and accepted his responsibility as Governor which has resulted in an internal investigation.
Elections will be impacted by all this, but, the verdict is still out and the US Attorney has to do his work and get it right without overreach.

The borough's EMS coordinator also documented four medical emergencies where responders were tied up in traffic during the first two days of lane closures, including that of a 91-year-old woman who was unconscious in her home and was later pronounced dead at a local hospital. Her family said later that they do not believe her death was caused by the delays and that she had passed away before they made the 911 call....
