A growing coalition of lawmakers have announced their support for impeaching the head of New Jersey’s prison system amid a criminal probe into assaults against female inmates by staff at the state’s only women’s prison.
A bipartisan group of 10 women in the state Assembly said Thursday they’d support forcing Corrections Commissioner Marcus Hicks out of a job, which would be the first time in modern history the Legislature impeached a leader in the executive branch.
