"Former tribal leader faces charges; Embezzlement, illegal contributions alleged" by Sean P. Murphy and Andrea Estes, Globe Staff | December 16, 2008
Federal authorities charged former Mashpee Wampanoag tribal chairman Glenn A. Marshall yesterday with steering tens of thousands of dollars in illegal campaign contributions to state and federal politicians, and embezzling $380,000 in tribal money that he spent on groceries, trips, and jewelry....
**************
In addition to paying a host of consultants, lawyers, and lobbyists working on the casino plan with the money, Marshall is accused of tapping the fund to steer $60,000 in illegal campaign contributions to members of Congress and state lawmakers. He used a series of family members and tribal officials to act as straw contributors to get around restrictions that prohibit corporations or tribes from making campaign contributions, according to documents filed yesterday in US District Court in Boston....
I don' want this corrupt, crime-filled vice coming to this state! They ain't no savior!
Marshall also spent lavishly from the fund on himself, according to investigators, blowing through hundreds of thousand of dollars from the Fisherman's Association account for "groceries, vacation trips, tuition for his daughter, restaurant tabs, home repairs, home mortgage payments, and jewelry."
Marshall's lawyer, Robert Craven, acknowledged the truth of the government's case in an interview, confirming that Marshall plans to plead guilty....
A political consultant [not named].... arranged for Marshall to meet and eventually hire lobbyist Jack A. Abramoff, at $12,000 a month. Abramoff, who was later accused of charging various tribes exorbitant fees, admitted to conspiracy, influence-peddling, and other charges in January and is serving a four-year prison sentence....Marshall became tribal chairman in 2000, shortly after Herbert Strather, a Detroit-based businessman who helped develop a casino there, become involved with the Mashpee Wampanoag. Strather and other Michigan investors formed a close bond with Marshall, at first agreeing to fund the tribal council's expenses at $10,000 a month and later upping it to $100,000 a month. In addition, the investors agreed to pay the cost of lobbyists, lawyers, and others involved in the recognition bid.

When Marshall's leadership was challenged in 2005, Strather wrote to tribal members urging his reelection. Strather, however, sold his interest last year, when Marshall struck a deal with the developers of Connecticut's Mohegan Sun resort, Sol Kerzner and Len Wolman. That deal would give the investors 6.5 percent of the gross revenue of a casino, hotel, and convention business, according to the court documents. Currently, Mohegan Sun is grossing about $1.3 billion annually.
Sol Kerzner again!!!
Just who is Sol Kerzner?
"Born outside Johannesburg in 1935 to Russian Jewish immigrants... by 26, he had entered the hotel business and in 1964 opened his first luxury hotel in South Africa using money invested by his accounting clients....
Part of the Russian/Jewish mafia is he?
In 1979, Kerzner created Sun City — the world’s first modern casino-resort, in the heart of the apartheid-era black homeland of Bophuthatswana. Technically not considered a part of South Africa, the location allowed Kerzner to operate a gambling casino and screen X-rated movies, activities that were illegal at the time in white-governed South Africa....
In mid-1987, Kerzner left South Africa under a cloud of suspicion and resettled in London. He was charged by a prosecutor in the black homeland of Transkei of bribing the governor of that state for casino rights. The governor served a nine-year prison sentence for accepting payment from Kerzner. Kerzner later admitted paying the money but claimed he was extorted. He spent years and millions of dollars in an eventually successful effort to get the charges dropped.
What is with the JEWISH GUYS and the BRIBES?
Kerzner later sold most of his interest in his South African hotel empire and began looking for new markets.... his taste for the fast life would be breathlessly chronicled in the world media for decades....
Len Wolman, chairman and chief executive of lodging concern Waterford Group, of Waterford, Conn., first brought the Mohegan Sun deal to Sol Kerzner.... Butch [Kerzner, Sol's son] also befriended members of the royal family of Dubai, who became large investors in the company as well as several Kerzner projects and awarded the Kerzners a key piece of land in Dubai for a second Atlantis resort scheduled for completion in late 2008....
Puts the LIE to all the Zionist's Muslim propaganda, doesn't it?
When $ is involved, it is a different story.
The deal had barely closed when Butch was killed, along with the two pilots and another passenger in the helicopter crash.... None of Kerzner’s other children are expected to figure into his succession plans....
Kerzner International will likely bid on Britain’s “super-casino” project announced last month for Manchester, England. Kerzner also says he’s interested in pursuing a project in Las Vegas."
Quite a story, 'eh?
Oh, and I no longer want to hear about any MUSLIM-JEW TENSIONS, 'kay? Not when some SCUM ZIONIST is operating CASINOS in DUBAI!!!!
Now back to your regularly-scheduled blog posts.
The contributions Marshall orchestrated included payments to the campaigns of Senator Edward M. Kennedy, Congressman William Delahunt, and then-Congressman Richard Pombo of California, who played a key role in Congress on Indian affairs, as well as to a political action committee controlled by Pombo....
And BLAGO gets an INDICTMENT for the same shit?
On the state level, among those who received campaign contributions were former attorney general Thomas Reilly ($1,500), Senate President Therese Murray ($1,500), House Ways and Means Committee chairman Robert Deleo ($1,000), House majority leader John Rogers ($900), and Lieutenant Governor Tim Murray ($250).
Well, what do you know: "liberal" Massachusetts infected with looting politicians, too!!!!
