Description | Congressman Weldon is keeping a low profile, a day after the F.B.I. raided the home and usiness of his daughter in an influence probe.
The Washington Post reports prosecutors impaneled a grand jury last May. And agents have wire-tapped Washington area cell phone numbers, gathering evidence over the past four months.
Investigators are looking into whether the Congressman used his office to help his daughter Karen and her partner Charles Sexton get business worth about a million dollars.
Allegations of ethical wrong-doing have haunted Weldon for years. |
