FBI searches Congressman Bob Brady’s emails in probe of $90K paid to rival

The FBI has reviewed emails from an AOL account of Philadelphia Congressman Bob Brady after a federal magistrate granted a search warrant to investigators. The search involves allegations Brady paid his 2012 Democratic primary opponent, Jimmie Moore, $90,000 from his campaign fund to drop his challenge for Brady’s seat. Four have been charged in the investigation; two have pleaded guilty, including Moore.

Moore, who has admitted violating campaign finance laws, is prepared to testify he met with Brady and struck a deal for his departure in return for the $90,000 to retire Moore’s campaign debt.

Brady has not been charged, and he has said he’s done nothing wrong.

His attorney, James Eisenhower, said Moore decided to drop out on his own, and that Brady agreed to pay Moore’s campaign for legitimate campaign services and materials, including a poll Moore conducted.

Considering the facts are real, the FBI is searching desperately for any mitigating emails in hopes that no “reasonable prosecutor” would bring charges for prosecution.
