In reply to the discussion: John Edwards... the REST of the story [View all]unc70
(6,113 posts)Young has admitted that all of Mellon's money and most of Baron's went into Young's personal accounts and benefit, mostly to build the Young's new home. None of these funds were ever used directly or indirectly to benefit Hunter or Edwards.
All those conversations with Edwards that Young has described in such detail are being refuted one after the other. They could not have happened when or as Young writes in his book or as he testified under oath. Young claimed to have discussed the pregnancy before he or anyone could have possibly known -- that date was before the child was even conceived!
Yes this is a mess. And it raises troubling questions far beyond the "sex stuff", and not just about Edwards.
Since the federal prosecutors certainly had the bank and phone records of Young, et al at least two years, why did Holding indict Edwards anyway?
Why did Holder and DOJ bring this case to trial?
Who is financing Young's movie deal with Rahm's brother?
