after eight years do Cunningham is out of jail if you don't recall who he is
and has been eight years after all he is a former republican congressman from
California
who's involved back in 2005 an absolutely massive bribery scandal
where he was securing con contracts for businesses in return for
both cold hard cash and also benefits now the most interesting and significant
single benefit is probably the Dukes terror
is a 42.4 foot yacht that he was allowed to live in without paying anything for
or that by one %uh the businesses that he was involved in a scandal in
and in when the investigation is going on before he was actually taken down
they wanted to find out more about this so that the FBI did ransacked the bowl
but at some point it disappeared and we're now finding out what actually
happened to it
so in the apparently in the a good night actually the boat was taken away to be
sold
extremely quickly to a man named Greg banker
and he's now telling I reporters what was actually going on on the boat it
apparently seems like it was the site of many parties
do Cunningham was a part up so I the quote from Greg banker he says
we got on the boat talk about we first bought it and we started going through
stuff
those bottles of wine that were incredible like nice wines
had all kinds and it was just a party boat you could tell was a flop at if you
will
what was left behind somebody was having an awful lot of fun
on this bow and we also have some pictures the sum up the
items that were taken from the boat giving you a sense so the extravagance
other
yup this bow actually had two separate bedrooms which i think is very
interesting it got an eyeful %uh
back deck you can see some other memorabilia 0
Cunningham now he did spend his eight years in prison he got one year off for
good behavior
sure is very well behaved boys in their and yeah that was the
Thursday expected today might so call things that I do about this for so I
like they way see this nice boat and
Baltimore Harbor yeah like I got a great shot all yet wears a balance codes in
Baltimore
you know what I'm gonna go ahead and pass SIII
yeah that apparently is a cute o.o tell room
which god knows what happens in that hotel room and Jim Cunningham
and in this banker guy would assiduously not stain
the scandalous things that he found on the boat is obvious things I can't tell
you about
and third why would a given credit for Lakhpat in
that nesler yeah that has unearthed yeah that is a thrown around a long time
hairdresser what we're here for pad yeah
but but but and a yeah
rally there were so that Duke Cunningham gets outta jail
and of course like all republicans who at the jail do you know what happens
inside jail
we should be really reform it really really rather do they do coalesce news
to us I didn't know that
and he's also a guy that if you remember right before he went to jail
my favorite story walter but who had a press conference worries sobbing Ouya we
went over to me
but likely found Jesus Christ right before he went to jail right
would be for the right before he found Jesus and before you that press
conference
he taking a laundry bag full of cash I
literally throwing it out the window the car as he was driving by
onto is what on Tuesday law on what you know where is why people think that
because you stay somewhere else
is his house he throws it at his wife and address the press guys who did not
still use and obey everything I G the hiding in the bushes outside prison
because they would find them right before we go any yeah
your position is good but we actually have that Prescott okay have yeah
go the truth is I broke the law
conceal my conduct and disgraced my office
I know there are about 400 freedom my reputation
my worldly possessions most importantly
to do mister No
butros for
but certain time ago as
orders from former US attorney in her own way I'm that I would be guilty
and BBQ sure reader presenter No
today is a coalition government prosecutors
no I would continue to cooperate
for the government's we're going to lose the game
the best my ability no superstar
call bearing that is hello i'm a shot heard from her on the back in my day
yeah
scope is so many awesome things about that when he said the baby I will miss
the Bose
I was like before sure he's going to do sir Yahoo pay
my flow Paul but rather hit
any says trust a wall thing she says trusses Lee pointed out in force for the
show you
he chose through the bag of money just a couple minutes ago
and what but with great sincerity Popolo close to draw blood group O
I can I can understand the tears though because if you do coming and you have to
be thinking
like seriously I'm going to jail as a congressman because I gave contracts in
exchange for money
I just forgot that they're not supposed to hand me the cash is best to make it
as a check to my pack
my campaign they're aware that there are those going back to my question for your
brilliant minds and why is it him because he had this this goes on
and Leslie I mean and usually 11 these guys goes to jail like it with a burning
made of its cuz he would take another read people's money
and everything at you know it's it's like there's usually a reason deeper
than just they were doing wrong
yeah and to be fair the government he did a pretty good job very few that look
that was 05 during the Bush years is so
and in the he served the longest amount on that any congressman has ever served
in jail
so so they gotta right I i think that the
they'd like to make examples out people who are stupid enough to take
illegal bribes because the legalized bribery so
rampant that all you gotta do is like as you guys said give it to my packing by
the way they
your pack can take you on a trip to Scotland golfing
can give you you know maybe even a yacht it depends rate
but this guy is a gay so greedy in if thought
think there's no rules nobody's enforcing any big just give me the money
directly don't not the pack and not the contributions
and I'm not gonna wait til i retire to give me a couple million dollars
I want the plot pad now and so would allow the government to say
should that's the bad apple by hand and the democrat that had the ninety
thousand in the
freezer raid right so those are the dole so that's the real problem
block away from the shall mean billions of dollars have legalized bribery weed
