We’ve been keeping an eye on freshman Rep. Michael Grimm, a New York Republican, who’s found himself facing all kinds of trouble in advance of his first re-election bid. This week appears to be a good-news/bad-news situation for the conservative lawmaker.
The good news is the Office of Congressional Ethics wrapped up its investigation of Grimm, and said it will not pursue any formal charges. The OCE makes recommendations to the House Ethics Committee, so this appears to be one less thing for Grimm to worry about.
The bad news is, the House ethics panel isn’t Grimm’s only problem.
A federal Brooklyn grand jury is probing alleged fundraising shenanigans in freshman Congressman Michael Grimm’s 2010 campaign, the Daily News has learned.
The FBI’s public corruption unit has interviewed at least four campaign workers investigating allegations that Grimm accepted illegal campaign contributions, law enforcement sources said.
