Mollohan's third cousin, I have no idea of the identity of any of my third cousins, except one whom I accidently discovered in a legal matter (he is also a lawyer).

He said there is no paper trail to show why Arrey Industries received the contracts it did, what exactly it produced and what gave the company the expertise to do the work in the first place.Let me guess. The two companies that actually had the expertise to perform under the contract were told that they would get the contract IF they allies themselves with Arrey because his cousin was in congress and had the power to direct to whom the contract would go. So Arrey got installed as a kind of middleman. Arrey then funneled proceeds from that deal into the purchase of real estate properties to enhance the value of Mollohan's business.

third cousin 3rd cousin? Wow, I would consider that pretty far removed. Guess the rest of the article looks more sinister but how far out can the nepotism stuff extend? 8th cousin 3 times removed or what?

The company received three federal contracts or subcontracts between 1995 and 2000 from the U. S. Department of Energy. Interesting, very interesting. The DOE contracts were done during the Clinton years under DOE Secretaries O'Leary (93-97), Pena (97-98), and Richardson (98-2001).

Arrey Industries has no website.
Arrey Industries is trying to get involved with the decommissioning of nuclear power plants. This is what The State Journal characterizes as "a slight career change" for its co-founder Joe Jarvis, third cousin of Representative Alan Mollohan, Democrat, West Virginia.

Didn't Duke Cunningham, Republican out of CA, go to jail for this practice? Now a demoncRAT does the same thing and gets a free pass.

Self-appointed clean government crusader Nancy Pelosi, asked about a Culture of Corruption among Democrats, responded with her usual "Well, but that's different....."

The congressman said the hubbub about his finances, his real estate holdings and his cousin's federal contracts are the result of political retribution. "I think the motives that are behind it are very apparent. They are political," he said. What an arrogant POS. Purge the crooks from Congress! All of them!

Anyone in the press going to ask the Governor about this? Oh, wait, he's a Democrat and therefore exempt from tough questions. ---My bad.

No and no. People locally see it as political mudslinging, that he is only targeted because of his seniority & committee memberships.
