New Jersey Officials Used Public Generators at Homes

When the power went out after Superstorm Sandy blew through, some New Jersey officials put emergency generators in their homes and businesses.

According to published reports, at least four New Jersey officials are under fire after taking public generators for their personal use.

The generators kept their lights on and refrigerators running after the power went out.
