September 7, 2000 Three More Traficant Aides Get Subpoenas By Damon Chappie Three more aides working for Rep. James Traficant (D-Ohio) were called last month to testify before an Ohio grand jury conducting a criminal investigation of the Congressman. The three aides, all working in Traficant's district office in Youngstown, completed their testimony last month, according to Paul Marcone, Traficant's chief of staff. He declined to discuss details about what they told the grand jury or the questions asked of them by federal prosecutors. The three aides are: Betty Manente and Faye Sarra, both listed as staff representatives; and Anthony Traficanti, director of case worker services. Marcone said that Traficanti is not related to the Congressman. Two other aides, including Marcone, and thousands of pages of documents from Traficant's office were subpoenaed earlier this year. Traficant has claimed a Fifth Amendment protection in refusing to turn over some documents to the grand jury and Marcone said yesterday that a federal judge overseeing the case has yet to rule on Traficant's motion. Prosecutors have declined to answer questions about the case. But an indictment of a contractor on obstruction of justice and perjury charges in July shed some light on the direction of the probe involving Traficant. The indictment said that a public official, later identified as Traficant, was being investigated for allegedly taking gifts and bribes and for tax evasion. The contractor, who has pleaded not guilty, was accused of submitting falsified bills to cover up work he had performed on Traficant's farm. ================================================================= Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, YHVH, TZEVAOT FROM THE DESK OF: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> *Mike Spitzer* <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ~~~~~~~~ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> The Best Way To Destroy Enemies Is To Change Them To Friends Shalom, A Salaam Aleikum, and to all, A Good Day. ================================================================= <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
