WASHINGTON -- A federal audit of a fundraising committee founded by House Majority Leader Tom DeLay found that it failed to report more than $300,000 in debts and incorrectly paid for committee activities with money from another DeLay-connected group.

[...]ARMPAC's executive director, Jim Ellis, has been indicted in Texas in connection with a separate DeLay-connected committee, Texans for a Republican Majority. In that case, Ellis is charged with money laundering for state legislative campaigns. DeLay has not been accused of any wrongdoing in the case.
At least, DeLay has not yet been charged with wrongdoing. Someone is going to flip on him to get a lighter sentence.
