Former GOP head jailed, charged with stealing from party
****************************************8EXCERPT*****************************************
Greer is charged with one count of organized fraud, one count of money laundering and four counts of grand theft.
"Mr. Greer developed a scheme to take money from the Republican Party of Florida through a shell company that he created called Victory Strategies," said Florida Statewide Prosecutor Bill Shepherd.
Greer is accused of entering into a vendor contract with the company.
"Victory Strategies then was paid 10 percent of major donor funding that came in to the party through contributions," said Shepherd.
He says the company also received more than $60,000 dollars that was simply paid at Greer's request. In all, he's accused of stealing more than $100,000 from the state GOP.
If convicted of all counts, Greer could spend the rest of his life in prison. He's being held under $105,000 bond at the Seminole County Jail.
