From CBS5.com:
California Attorney General Jerry Brown has returned $52,500 in campaign contributions from an investment firm and the relatives of two businessmen his office is investigating.
Rubeena Singh, treasurer of Brown’s campaign committee, Jerry Brown 2010, said the donations from four family members of Sacramento lobbyist Darius Anderson and the firm of Los Angeles political fundraiser Daniel Weinstein were returned on June 29.
Singh said the money was given back so it would not “distract” from the office’s work.
Anderson co-founded Gold Bridge Capital, and Weinstein runs Wetherly Capital. The companies are being investigated in connection with a public pension scandal. Neither of the men has been charged.
