United States District Court in New Jersey has the criminal complaint…

On or about September 28, 2006, in accordance with Official 1’s instructions, CW-2 wire transferred $3,500 to a bank account in Atlanta, Georgia, with the beneficiary listed as defendant McCORMICK.

14. On or about November 8, 2006, defendant McCORMICK was interviewed at the FBI office in Atlantic City, New Jersey. During the interview, defendant McCORMICK acknowledged that he had received the $3,500 wire transfer discussed in paragraph 13. In explaining why he had received these funds, defendant McCORMICK stated that he told Official 1 that he needed $2,000 to $3,000 to renovate his basement so that the Pleasantville Democratic Club had a place to hold its meetings. Defendant McCORMICK further stated that he then received a telephone call from Official 1, who asked defendant McCORMICK whether he wanted the funds by cash or check. Defendant McCORMICK said that he
instructed Official 1 that he wanted the money transferred into his account.

15. Defendant McCORMICK described this account as a “dummy” account and said that he put the money there so it could not be traced back to him. Defendant McCORMICK further stated that the money was ultimately transferred to a woman whom he had known for more than 25 years, but defendant McCORMICK was unable to provide any contact information for this woman.

This scandal is part of the Democrat New Jersey 11 that were busted in a political corruption sting. The FBI set up a fake company in which it offered to pay out bribes to officials in that state… the New Jersey Attorney General’s office has made all the complaints available. Word is that this sting has only scratched the surface of the corruption in the state that they call ‘the armpit of the nation’, which ironically happens to be one of the most solidly liberal states in the union.
