When public corruption takes place, by definition, it involves more than one defendant.
Whether extortion, bribery, racketeering, money-laundering, RICO, Hobbs Act, or other crimes, rest assured that the feds know how to get their man. I've reported federal corruption crimes to authorities for over a quarter century, with varying results.
When the feds do their jobs, you want to sing the Star Spangled Banner.
Like antitrust crimes (like those by Big Oil), it takes a group of thugs to corrupt a government or rob taxpayers and consumers.
If they're guilty of corruption, I say, after Jack Lord in the 1960s crime drama, "Hawai'i Five-O," "book 'em, Dan-0."
See the Orlando Sentinel column below, about our Legislature's insouciance to what the statewide grand jury found to be pervasive corruption.
