Peter Byron, of Wildwood, faces a new state indictment after pleading guilty to federal charges — and still facing separate fraud allegations along with current Wildwood leaders.
With two-thirds of the governing body under state indictment, Wildwood has needed to rely on what’s called the “doctrine of necessity” to allow votes to take place where there is a conflict of interest, including one Wednesday about representing the city’s interest in a civil suit filed by the mayor and deputy mayor.
The attorney representing Wildwood Mayor Ernie Troiano Jr. against charges of official misconduct was disqualified from the case Friday after accepting a job with the Attorney General s Office, the same office that is prosecuting his client.
