Subject: News Alert: Justice Dept. investigated potential 'bribery-for-pardon' scheme involving Trump White House in August
To: <

| The Justice Department this summer and fall investigated a potential "bribery-for-pardon" scheme in which a large political contribution would be offered in exchange for a presidential pardon by the Trump White House, according to court records unsealed Tuesday by Chief U.S. District Judge Beryl A. Howell of Washington.
The documents show that U.S. prosecutors were scrutinizing whether two individuals approached senior Trump White House officials as unregistered lobbyists, and a related scheme in which cash would be funneled through intermediaries for a pardon or reprieve of a sentence for a defendant apparently in U.S. Bureau of Prisons custody at some point. The status of the investigation is unclear. |
