Feds Drop Effort to Prosecute Senator Toricelli
The Star-Legder reports that federal prosecutors have dropped their investigation into the finances of Senator Robert Toricelli, a democrat from New Jersey. Key to the decision to drop the investigation was the behavior of David Chang, a prominent contributor to Toricelli. According to the article, "...Chang presented prosecutors with growing credibility problems. Before he agreed to cooperate with the government, the prosecutors themselves had disparaged Chang as a man who 'simply cannot be trusted on his word.'"
This development lifts some of the clouds over Senator Toricelli's reelection bid this coming November.
