Three New Jersey mayors and several rabbis were arrested on Thursday in a sweeping federal investigation into political corruption that also uncovered human kidney sales and money laundering from Brooklyn to Israel,authorities said. Among the 44 people arrested were Hoboken Mayor Peter Cammarano,who took office 23 days ago. Cammarano,31,the citys youngest mayor,was charged with taking 25,000 in bribes,including 10,000 last Thursday,said the US Attorneys office. The case exposed a corrupt network of public officials who were all too willing to take cash in exchange for promised official action, Acting US Attorney Ralph Marra said in a statement.
