Cong William Jefferson (D-La) makes a statement to the press before boarding his flight to Switzerland.

" Look, I had $90 large ones in my freezer because, as a compassionate Democrat, I was helping out a distinguished foreign dignitary."

"What happened was I got an email from Nigerian General Kachinga Cheatchusuckah who had a problem."

"Now, once Gen Cheatchusuckah transfers Idi Amin's secret Ugandan gold
reserves from the Swiss bank vault to a refrigerated truck I leased..........."

LOL. “Nigerian General Kachinga Cheatchusuckah”. That’s funny.

BTW, to answer another poster’s question about the cash: Jefferson accepted $100 grand, but the Feds only found $90,000 of the money. The other $10,000 is still missing.
