Here are the charges against Regola. (Remember HE accused Allen Kukovich of lying in order to win...

[demodonkey]

...the 39th District Senate seat!)

It is sooooooo ironic that Regola is accused of perjury and false swearing after HE accused Allen Kukovich of being dishonest as part of the swiftboat campaign he ran in order to enable his "win".

And ha ha ha ha ha even Scaife's Tribune-Review, the paper that helped smear Allen, has to admit that these are the serious crimes of character that Regola has been charged with.
