Company to Aid in DeLay Corruption Probe (Full Story)
By APRIL CASTRO, Associated Press Writer
AUSTIN, Texas - A company accused in the campaign-finance investigation that has implicated associates of U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay agreed to aid prosecutors in exchange for having charges against it dropped, court papers showed.
The California-based company, which has offices in San Angelo, was accused of giving $50,000 to Texans for a Republican Majority, a GOP political action committee associated with DeLay, during the 2002 campaign. The election gave the party its first legislative majority since Reconstruction.
Seven other companies are accused of contributing a total of $140,000 to the PAC, and three DeLay associates have been indicted on allegations of money laundering and illegal acceptance of corporate political contributions.
