Defense contractor admits Cunningham pay-offs.
Edited on Sat Feb-25-06 06:54 PM by maveric
Randy "Duke" Cunningham's problems have been compounded. Now the bribers are rolling over on the good congressman.
http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/politics/20060225-9999-1n25plea.html

"Defense contractor Mitchell Wade pleaded guilty in federal court yesterday to conspiring to funnel more than $1 million in bribes to former Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham and making illegal campaign contributions to two other members of Congress."

<snip>

And Kathertine Harris's name pops up..

"While not named in the plea agreement, the two representatives are identifiable through campaign finance records as Republican Reps. Virgil Goode of Virginia and Katherine Harris of Florida. Neither has been accused of criminal wrongdoing."

If Cunningham doesn't do any time, it'll be a crime in itself. He's been on the "pad", for years down here in SoCal.
Now if they can get someone to come forward to nail his repug crony Duncan Hunter....
