Another Indictment for Arizona Congressman; Renzi Now Accused of Racketeering
By Kathleen Hunter, CQ Staff


A federal grand jury on Thursday indicted Rep. Rick Renzi on eight additional charges, including racketeering and making false statements on his 2005 tax return.

The expanded indictment also levies additional conspiracy and insurance fraud charges against Renzi, R-Ariz.

An Arizona grand jury originally handed up a 35-count indictment in February, charging Renzi with conspiracy, fraud, extortion, and money-laundering.

Renzi was accused of conspiring to commit insurance fraud with James W. Sandlin, a former business associate, in a land-swap scheme in his home state and with Andrew Beardall, formerly the general counsel of a Renzi-owned insurance agency.

...at Ft. Levenworth, Kansas...or at least we can hope so.

The stench of this regime and its enablers will linger a long way past Jan. 20. So far most of the corruption that's come out has been due to stupidity and arrogance...they asked to be caught, but be sure there are many others under the surface who are just as criminal as Renzi...both in the House and in the executive.
