Newark Mayor Ras Baraka’s charge of trespassing at a migrant detention facility could be difficult to dispense with in court, some white-collar criminal lawyers said.
The mayor was charged with Title 18, U.S. Code, Section 13 and N.J.S.A. 2C:18-3 after he accompanied three members of New Jersey’s congressional delegation on Friday to visit Delaney Hall, a privately owned facility near Newark’s airport.
