| I'm reading through the indictment filed by the feds against Joe Bruno. It's 35 pages long and describes corruption going back to 1993 - before he even became Majority Leader. All the familiar names are there - Abbruzzese, McGinn, Wright Investor's Service as well as most of the major unions in the state. The indictment seems to be pretty exhaustive and the numbers cited are simply enormous. Let's just say that it's easy to understand why Uncle Joe was so adamant about not releasing a list of his sham "consulting" firm's clients. These entities were paying him fabulous sums of money and he was going to great lengths to hide these payments, all described in detail in the indictment itself.
It's interesting reading, to say the least. I've uploaded the PDF here, so you can take a look as well.
Happy hunting. |
