DeLay Now Indicted for Money Laundering |
DeLay Now Indicted for Money Laundering

Grand Jury indicts former House leader for money laundering.
Austin, Texas - A Texas grand jury indicted Rep. Tom DeLay on a new
charge of money laundering Monday, less than a week after another grand
jury leveled a conspiracy charge that forced DeLay to temporarily step down
as House majority leader.
Both indictments accuse DeLay and two political associates of
conspiring to get around a state ban on corporate campaign contributions by
funneling the money through a political action committee to the Republican
National Committee in Washington.
The RNC then sent back like amounts to distribute to Texas candidates
in 2002, the indictment alleges.
The new indictment came hours after DeLay's attorneys filed a request
to dismiss the case. That request argued that the conspiracy charge was
based on a law that was not effective until 2003, the year after the
alleged money transfers.
The judge who will preside in DeLay's case was out of the country on
vacation and could not rule on the request. Other state district judges
declined to rule on the request in his place, said Colleen Davis, a law
clerk to Austin attorney Bill White, also represents DeLay.
