Bondi bribery claim dropped for lack of evidence

Seven months ago all the usual suspects on the left were very excited about this story. Trump gave a $25,000 donation to Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi in 2013 and later she decided not to pursue an investigation of Trump University. A lawyer in Boston named J. Whitfield Larrabee filed a complaint last year alleging the donation was a bribe. Amira Fox, chief assistant attorney for the 20th Judicial Circuit, reviewed the claim and found it lacked anything approaching evidence. From the Associated Press:

Amira Fox, the chief assistant state attorney, said in a memo about the case that the complaint against Bondi was “insufficient on its face to conduct a criminal investigation” and was based almost entirely on media coverage.

“The majority of the complaint consists of insinuation without any material evidence in support,” Fox wrote.

Fox added that although a campaign contribution could be viewed as a type of bribe, there was no evidence that Bondi asked for the money in exchange for any official act.

“...was based almost entirely on media coverage.”

That meets the democrat/liberal standard for pursuing charges leveled against republican/conservative politicians.
