LOS ANGELES (AP) - Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's former campaign finance director pleaded not guilty Monday to federal charges he deliberately underreported the amount raised at a Hollywood gala for the senator in 2000.
David Rosen, 40, of Chicago was released for a trial March 22 in Los Angeles. But his attorney, Paul Mark Sandler, said he planned to ask that the case be moved to Washington.
Rosen is charged with four counts of filing false reports with the Federal Election Commission. Each count carries up to five years in prison and $250,000 in fines.
Sandler said after the hearing that Rosen "looks forward to his day in court to get this matter behind him."
Too bad they couldn't put the trial in the same location as Scott Peterson's trial...those folks have got a mighty fine sense of justice!
Well .. the Scott Peterson location is going to be dealing with another murder .. a man who murdered 9 of his own children. He kept a house full of women and children and it was the most bizzare thing. I sure wouldn't want to be on that jury.
Why not have the trial in one of Hillary's mansions? Maybe in the breakfast nook...
