Rep. Randy “Duke” Cunningham to plead guilty to tax code violations, says the AP. The local paper, the Union-Tribune, says that he’ll plead guilty to “criminal charges.” “It’s over. I can’t fight anymore,” Cunningham tells supporters.
I guess tax code violations can mean many things. But there were several instances of seemingly clear-cut influence-peddling and/or bribery in the Duke cas. It will be interesting to see how those are disposed of in this plea agreement.
And where does this leave Duke’s fat cats Mitchell Wade and Brent Wilkes.
