Docs Detail Scandal Within Florida GOP Including Hooker Allegation

Docs Detail Scandal Within Florida GOP Including Hooker Allegation

Prosecutors Wednesday released hundreds of pages of documents of evidence in the fraud case against former Florida GOP chair Jim Greer.

A couple highlights:

According to a female party official who spoke to investigators, Greer organized a men-only trip to the Bahamas with major donors and “women were involved and paid.” Gov. Charlie Crist, who was on the same trip and hand-picked Greer for the top GOP job in 2007, said today that the charge there were escorts or other paid women involved is “absurdly false.”

Separately, a onetime office manager at the Republican Party of Florida told investigators that Greer, who is accused of skimming party fundraising revenues, regularly doctored his credit-card receipts to obscure what he was buying.
