Friends in High Places

"A former Minnesota congressman, convicted in the traffic death of a motorcyclist, shouldn’t have to pay any damages in the case, a U.S. attorney says."

Why, you may ask?

""I find that the individual defendant, William Janklow, was acting within the scope of his employment as a member of the United States Congress at the time,” Heffelfinger wrote."

Yep, it definitely pays to have to criminal friends in high places.

The article “Bill Janklow damages may be paid by U.S."
