from Detroit News article http://www.detnews.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080527/METRO/805270320/1409/Metro .... “Fieger has admitted he reimbursed employees and others for the donations, some of which were solicited by his partner, Johnson. The key issue is whether Fieger and Johnson knowingly broke the law.” ............. these guys are supposed to be some of the finest lawyers in the state,and they didn’t know it was illegal?????? gee,your honor,I didn’t know it was illegal to rob banks,can I get aquitted like Fieger?

"Fieger, the only defense witness called during the trial, said the reimbursements actually were bonuses and that any employee contributions to Edwards were made voluntarily."

Let's see, how many employees received such a "bonus" but failed to donate to Edwards' campaign?
