Another Bribery Fraud whatever scandal which has been unfolding for a while but which I had not really been following,
But, I mean, rare coins????
wouldn't that raise a few red flags?
Ohio Scandals May Give Democrats a Lift: "COLUMBUS, Ohio -- The scandal began as a curiosity. Tom Noe, a gregarious businessman and Republican Party leader in northwest Ohio, had been entrusted with $50 million in state money to invest in rare coins, with the idea of winning fat returns for the workers' compensation fund.
It seemed an oddity at most, but like a loose thread on a jacket, the more investigators pulled, the more the garment unraveled, revealing members of Ohio's Republican establishment who had been wined, dined and enriched by Noe."
