I read the entire “sealed” Indictment. What a racket. One can surmise that he is not the only one using politics to enrich himself. That kind of money made me think he might not have cared if he won or not; in fact, it might have been better if he hadn’t won because then he could keep the donor contributions gravy train going for his next campaign.
As an aside:
Gillum’s attorneys issued the following statement: “The government got it wrong today. The evidence in this case is clear and will show that Mr. Gillum is innocent of all charges. We look forward to putting this case to rest and giving Andrew and his family peace of mind once and for all.” Lettman-Hicks has not yet issued a public statement.
