A former primary challenger to Pennsylvania Rep. Robert A. Brady has agreed to cooperate with a federal investigation into $90,000 he says he received from Brady’s campaign to drop from the 2012 race.
Former Philadelphia Municipal Court Judge Jimmie Moore has said he accepted $90,000 in concealed bribe money from the Democratic congressman’s campaign. He has been mum on whether his testimony could implicate Brady directly.
Moore has cooperated with federal lawyers for months now, his lawyer, Jeffrey Miller, said in court Monday. Miller declined to say whether that cooperation could lead to charges against Brady.
“There is a vast amount of evidence out there,” Miller told the Philadelphia Inquirer Monday. “Whether it points to the congressman doing something illegal or exculpates him, I can’t say.”
