Quote:Arizona men behind pro-GOP and anti-abortion PACs indicted for bilking small donors out of $23 million
Quote:Two Arizona brothers were charged Thursday in a Manhattan courtroom by federal authorities of bilking donors out of more than $23 million with a collection “scam PACs,” telling contributors their money would be used to fund anti-abortion, GOP candidates and law enforcement causes, reports the Daily Beast.
William Tierney, 46, and Robert Tierney, 40, are due to be arraigned in Arizona on federal charges of wire fraud, mail fraud and conspiracy for raising money through their political action committees from 2014 to 2018 — and pocketing $3.5 million to themselves while the causes they professed to support received only $108,000 in help.
Actually, these two should get a medal for scamming busy body "pro-lifers."
What's the crime? They gave the causes $108,000. They don't prosecute a CEO if he skims $20 million a year while paying some workers minimum wage.
The verdict = not guilty on all charges.
