A massive cheating scandal that rocked the U.S. Naval Academy in 1994 and 
involved New Jersey Democratic gubernatorial candidate Rep. Mikie Sherrill 
also involved her husband, Jason Hedberg, according to reporting by the 
New York Post.

This follows the improper release of bombshell private military records by 
the National Archives and Records Administration, which revealed that 
Sherrill was not allowed to walk with her graduating class at the Naval 
Academy and that her name was not included in the commencement program due 
to her involvement in the scandal.

Sherrill, a congresswoman representing New Jersey, has not been accused of 
cheating at the Naval Academy but rather of failing to report those who 
had cheated on an exam.

The Post reported that Hedberg was also caught up in the scandal. The 
outlet said Hedberg was one of nearly 50 midshipmen who sued the Naval 
Academy, the Navy and the Pentagon to block an honor board at the school 
from deciding whether they should be dismissed.

DEM LEAK CLAIMS

The suit alleged that each named plaintiff was denied due process by the 
academy and ordered by their superiors to make incriminating statements, 
according to the outlet.

The complaint stated that "in compliance with the orders of their superior 
military officers, each named plaintiff was compelled to make inculpatory 
statements to Navy Inspector General investigators."

While Sherrill did not walk in her commencement ceremony, Hedberg's name 
is included in the 1994 commencement program, indicating he was cleared to 
take part in the ceremony, which took place three months after the suit 
was filed.

Sherrill is locked in a tight race against Republican Jack Ciattarelli to 
replace term-limited Democratic Gov. Phil Murphy.

Sean Higgins, a spokesperson for Sherrill's campaign, responded to the 
development by telling Fox News Digital that "the fact Jack Ciattarelli 
and MAGA Republicans are going after Mikie’s family is sick and desperate.

"Jason graduated, served honorably as a Naval Officer and the illegal 
disclosure of Mikie’s unredacted personal military records, including her 
Social Security number and the unlawful dissemination of those records by 
the Ciattarelli campaign is a disgrace and must be investigated." 

While investigating Sherrill's suspected involvement in the 1994 cheating 
scandal, Ciattarelli's campaign also submitted its own FOIA request, which 
confirmed her name was not on the U.S. Naval Academy graduation program 
that year. 

The revelations have rocked the already tight race in blue-leaning New 
Jersey.

SCANDAL RESURFACES

The Ciattarelli campaign said Nicholas De Gregorio, a friend who is not 
directly involved in the campaign, "submitted a lawful FOIA request" about 
Sherrill's military background of his own accord. 

A spokesperson for the National Archives and Records Administration stated 
that the technician who responded to De Gregorio's request about 
Sherrill's military record "should NOT have released the entire record," 
which included private information such as her Social Security number.

The National Archives apologized for the breach of privacy and has 
committed to holding its staff accountable for the blunder. 

In response, Sherrill has accused Ciattarelli of illegally obtaining the 
records.

"To have a guy I'm running against, it will stop at nothing, it will stop 
at nothing, who will illegally obtain records. It's just beyond the pale," 
Sherrill charged Thursday night on the campaign trail in Plainfield, New 
Jersey.

"I didn’t turn in some of my classmates, so I didn’t walk but graduated 
and was commissioned as an officer in the U.S. Navy, serving for nearly 
ten years with the highest level of distinction and honor," Sherrill told 
the Globe when confronted with the commencement program. She defended not 
releasing any disciplinary records from her time at the academy. 

Sherrill has also accused the Trump administration of colluding with 
Ciattarelli’s campaign.

"This is an illegal and dangerous weaponization of the federal 
government," Sherrill said in a statement Thursday as she criticized 
Ciattarelli and the Trump administration for "breaking the law and 
exposing private records for political gain."

On Thursday, Higgins accused the Trump administration of "targeting 
political opponents with an absolute disregard for the law, this time in 
concert with the Ciattarelli campaign."

For his part, Ciattarelli is calling on Sherrill to release her records to 
prove why she was blocked from attending her graduation ceremony.

In a letter sent to Sherrill's lawyers, a lawyer representing the 
Ciattarelli campaign said that any claim that Ciattarelli for Governor 
(CFG) was "part of a conspiracy to smear [Sherrill] with ill-gotten 
documents is completely false. In fact, it is defamatory and if [Sherrill] 
and her campaign continue to push this false narrative and allege that CFG 
and/or [campaign strategist Chris] Russell acted illegally, we will pursue 
defamation claims."

Sherrill's campaign did not immediately provide a response to Fox News 
Digital's request for comment on her husband’s involvement in the scandal.


-- 
November 5, 2024 - Congratulations President Donald Trump.  We look 
forward to America being great again.

We live in a time where intelligent people are being silenced so that 
stupid people won't be offended.

Every day is an IQ test. Some pass, some, not so much.

Thank you for cleaning up the disasters of the 2008-2017, 2020-2024 Obama 
/ Biden / Harris fiascos, President Trump.

Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the 
The World According To Garp.  Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood 
queer liberal democrat donors.
