Just days after the gruesome Feb. 1 murder of 30-year-old Sayreville Council Member Eunice K. Dwumfour, a Republican, Gov. Phil Murphy tried his hand as a crime reporter using his public radio call-in show to speculate on the case.
He told listeners to his WNYC-WBGO-WHHY Feb. 2 show that he had conducted an informal canvas of a "whole bunch of electeds-folks in the know-who have been around for a long time" and that none of them could recall "a sitting elected official of the state being shot and killed."
