 == Conspired to create traffic jams == 

  
 The use of the term ""conspired"" in describing the acts of Christie's aides & Port Authority appointees who were directly involved in this episode shouldn't be a matter of controversy. The term comes directly from numerous sources.    

  Completed    

 :It has been shown in subpoenaed communications and news reports that Christie aide, Bridget Kelly, and Christie's Port Authority appointees conspired to close the toll lanes. They have not just been accused, but have been shown in various communications to have conspired. This issue has been vigorously debated in past Talk sections and in a very long history of back and forth revisions of the article. I am revising the article to reflect this general past consensus since there was another article revision that some have only been ""accused"" of this.  A separate issue that can be addressed at a later time, if it comes to fruition, is whether some people will be accused in a court of law about these activities.   "
