Mitt Romney Slapped With Racketeering Lawsuit

Posted by | January 8, 2015 08:50 | Filed under: Top Stories


Via Addicting Info comes the news that the former GOP presidential candidate is being accused of racketeering in the matter of a corporate liquidation:

Stephen “Laser” Haas operates Collateral Logistics Inc. (CLI) a company which was appointed to oversee the liquidation of assets in the bankruptcy of eToys in 2001. He has now filed suit against Mitt Romney along with his company Bain Capital, Goldman Sachs, and several other firms, over actions taken in the eToys bankruptcy which manipulated the sale price, costing the companies shareholders millions. A US Judge confirmed the details of the case back in 2005, but under the Bush administration enforcement of these laws was lackluster at best. Bain Capital has already found itself in hot water over similar price-fixing scandals, but this case comes with paperwork implicating the one time GOP presidential nominee of price manipulation.

According to the affidavit by Mr. Haas, his firm found many accounting irregularities which he reported to US Attorney Colm F. Connolly. However, instead of acting, the issues were ignored. It turned out that Mr. Connolly failed to recuse himself from the case despite his ties to Morris, Nichols, Arsht & Tunnell (MNAT), a law firm which Mr. Haas alleges has ties to Mr. Romney.

Of course Mr. Romney already tried to claim that he had retroactively retired from Bain Capital. The failure of Mr. Connolly to enforce the RICO statute has landed him a spot on the lawsuit, right next to Mr. Romney.

    This is all going to become irrelevant when the results come in from Cuyahoga County.

    If we would’ve elected Mitt back in 2010, he wouldn’t have been forced into a life of crime. Damn you Obama!

    Thank you William – for taking the time to assist our cause against organized, white collar crime, so powerful – we may wind up with a RICO POTUS!

    You do know don’t you, that this suit was filed back in 2013…

    • laserDliquidator January 21st, 2015 at 19:44

      Of course they do – Everyone knows.

      And chances are – if Mitt never runs again – the corruption will keep it from seeing light of day.

        Then again…….

    From the comments below, it is clear that no one is taking Romney-bus seriously. I hope that’s a good thing, I would hate the third-time agony of watching him alternate feet in his big, fat, insincere mouth!
