FBI investigating Jane Sanders for alleged bank fraud: report

[Petrushka]

283. Dang! I made a reply to your post and, for some unknown reason, it disappeared. I'll try again!

There are stories, too, indicating the complaint was seen as a political attack by the Catholic Diocese involved in the land deal. Here's a link to one of those old stories:

Then there's something more recent. At the following link, if you read through to the end, you'll find this--->

Toensing himself sought to tie the senator to the controversy in his initial complaint, alleging that O'Meara Sanders' "special political status not only helped enable these apparent offenses, but also ensures her protection from any sort of state scrutiny or enforcement." The Republican lawyer wrote that the couple had "built political careers pontificating against corporate corruption and claiming to want to help the needy" but had harmed the diocese and the "vulnerable Vermonters" they serve.

Though the family's response Monday to news of the investigation was measured in tone, Sanders spokesman Michael Briggs lashed out at Toensing when he filed his complaint in January 2016, calling it "recycled, discredited garbage."

In a statement issued at the time, Briggs wrote, "These kinds of attacks on family members of candidates are one of the reasons why the American people are so disgusted with politics in America today."

Anyway . . . As we would say back-in-the-day, "It'll all come out in the wash."

All best!
