John Law comes a calling on DukeStir and MZM
From the North County Times, we learn that various law enforcement agencies paid a visit to MZM offices and Randys DC domicile, The DukeStir
Federal agents on Friday reportedly searched the Washington, D.C., offices of MZM Inc. as well as a yacht that U.S. Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham has said he uses as a residence while in Washington and his San Diego-area home.Make the home folks proud Randy.
The U.S. attorney's office in San Diego issued a written statement confirming the searches as part of a grand jury investigation into Cunningham's dealings with MZM and its owner, Mitchell J. Wade. "Today's operations are part of an ongoing law enforcement investigation being conducted by the U.S. Attorney's Offices in San Diego and Washington, D.C., the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Defense Criminal Investigative Service, and the Internal Revenue Service," the statement read. "Because it is a pending investigation, it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time." Questions have been raised about whether Cunningham used his position on a powerful congressional subcommittee to steer contracts to Wade's company. Cunningham was served with a grand jury subpoena earlier this week seeking unspecified documents, according to an attorney the Escondido Republican has hired.
