Prison Officials Worry About Overcrowding Due To Republican Presidential Staffers
This is a major worry. We will simply have to build an entire federal penitentiary just to house members of the Giuliani campaign:
A prominent Texas Republican has sued Rudy Giuliani’s law firm and a close friend and partner of Giuliani’s, Kenneth Caruso, alleging that Caruso, the firm and others “schemed and conspired to steal $10 million.”
J. Virgil Waggoner, a Houston businessman and philanthropist, filed the previously unreported suit in New York State Supreme Court in Manhattan in July. He alleges that Caruso, his former lawyer, conspired with Waggoner’s investment adviser to cover up the disappearance of $10 million Waggoner invested through a Caribbean bank, the British Trade & Commerce Bank.
Waggoner claims Caruso “may have also been romantically involved” with the investment adviser.
The Caribbean bank was shut down after its handling of Waggoner’s investment came to light, and its president was later jailed for money laundering.
We toyed at some point with putting together a Right's Field police blotter, with a list of all the candidate advisors under investigation or indictment, but at this point, I actually don't think we have the server space.
On another note, should Giuliani be elected, it would be easier if all these officials were imprisoned somewhere close to the White House, making cabinet meetings more convenient. Honestly, some people like to talk about the Bush Administration running a criminal enterprise inside the Oval Office. Giuliani apparently runs one wherever he appears.
