Carroll Unfit for Assembly
Jackson Denounces Statehouse Rant That Drove Girl to Tears

MORRISTOWN, May 20, 2005 – 25th District Assembly candidate Thom Jackson expressed outrage at Assemblyman Michael Patrick Carroll’s treatment of Statehouse visitors on Monday and his refusal to own up to his actions. Carroll shocked onlookers in Statehouse hallways by bringing a critically-ill 8th-grade girl to tears – and now he is trying to blame the media instead of taking responsibility.

Carroll coldly dashed the hopes of fourteen-year-old Emily Greatrex, telling her that she would not live to see a cure for her potentially fatal juvenile diabetes. Additional accounts suggest this incident was not the only time that day when Carroll let ideology trump civility.
