A New Jersey businessman and Democrat power broker has been indicted on charges related to his alleged leadership of a criminal enterprise since at least 2012.

State prosecutors say George Norcross III and his associates engaged in racketeering, extortion, official misconduct, and other crimes over at least the past decade to enrich themselves and expand their political influence, particularly in the city of Camden, New Jersey, which sits directly across the Delaware River from Philadelphia.
