Biography

Weidel was born on September 27, 1923, in Trenton, New Jersey.[2][3] His father, Karl Weidel, Jr., ran an insurance and real estate brokerage, established in 1915.[4] He attended Trenton Catholic High School, Duke University, and Rutgers Law School. During World War II he joined the United States Navy and became a pilot.[3] After the war, he entered the family business, taking over the insurance division in 1949.[4]

Weidel was a resident of Pennington, Mercer County, New Jersey.[1] He became the first Republican in a generation elected to the Mercer County Board of Chosen Freeholders in 1966. He was first elected to the New Jersey General Assembly in 1969 to serve in the District 6A, represented the 14th Legislative District from 1974 to 1982, and the 23rd Legislative District from 1982 until his resignation from office.[3] In the New Jersey General Assembly he worked on no-fault insurance reform and also supported the "right-to-die" movement during the Karen Ann Quinlan case.[5]

Weidel resigned from the Assembly in 1986 to take a position as executive director of the Unsatisfied Claim and Judgment Fund in the New Jersey Department of Insurance. His vacant seat was filled by C. Richard Kamin. Weidel retired from state government in 1990.[5]

On January 31, 1997, Weidel committed suicide by jumping to his death from the top of a Trenton parking garage.[5][6][7] He was 73.[5][6]
