GA: Democrat State Rep Pleads Guilty To Money Laundering

This Democrat State Representative isn’t just an elected public official – no sir – he’s also a church Pastor. What kind of church goes out and launders hundreds of thousands of dollars for drug dealers? How do guys like this get to be a) elected and b) become leaders of church congregations? Come Democrats – you’ve got to do better than this!

State Rep. Ron Sailor on Tuesday pleaded guilty to laundering what he believed to be $375,000 in drug money for an undercover officer posing as a drug dealer.Sailor, 33, a Democrat who represents parts of DeKalb and Rockdale counties, agreed to resign his position in the legislature. Shortly after his arrest three months ago, Sailor admitted his wrongdoing and began providing information for a public corruption investigation.

“It is an active and ongoing investigation,” U.S. Attorney David Nahmias said after the guilty plea. Sailor provided “useful information in opening windows into public corruption we were unaware of before his cooperation.”

Sailor was arrested by federal agents at a metro Atlanta hotel on Dec. 19, after taking what he believed to be $300,000 in cash from a drug dealer, who actually was an undercover officer.
