SAN FRANCISCO -- A federal grand jury has issued an indictment against state Sen. Leland Yee, Raymond "Shrimp Boy" Chow and 27 other defendants targeted in a wide-ranging FBI investigation into drug and weapons trafficking, money laundering, public corruption and murder for hire.
The indictment recapitulates the allegations presented last week in a 137-page affadavit, detailing several instances of alleged bribery involving Yee, who is charged with taking illegal campaign donations in exchange for writing a letter on behalf of a company called Well Tech; issuing a proclamation honoring Chee Kung Tong, an organization head by Chow; and lobbying two fellow senators on behalf of medical marijuana legislation.
Yee is also charged with conspiring to arrange an illegal arms deal between an undercover FBI agent and Wilson Lim, a Daly City dentist and longtime political supporter of Yee.
On March 14 the indictment claims Yee and Keith Jackson, his campaign fundraiser, met with an undercover officer and took a payment of $6,800 along with a list of weapons to pass to Lim.
Check back for more details on the indictment.
I sure hope that he gets what is coming to him!
