As the Maricopa County
Attorney's Office nears going public with its charges against Tom Horne
and his co-conspirators, behind the scene deals and plea deals are being
cut.
Horne's troupe is
striving mightily to hold onto roles in the yet unknown incoming
Attorney General's cast. While doing his best to avoid the spotlight
and for obvious reasons, not the least of which is his total lack of
trial experience, Horne's criminal chief Andrew Pacheco is keeping his
fingers crossed for McCain to have enough clout with the replacement AG
to keep Pacheco in his spot. That would allow Pacheco and McCain to
cling to their pipe dream of Pacheco running for AG in 2014.
Sadly for the hopeful
Pacheco, Horne must still work out the terms of his guilty plea, which
will undoubtedly require Horne to admit to and identify the people he
utilized when orchestrating coordination with Kathleen Winn's
independent expenditure committee. This is the campaign finance fraud
case the FBI has presented to the County Attorney.
The soon to be
publicized list of Horne's bad actors who played a part in the campaign
money scheme will be no surprise to those who have been following
Showtime's coverage of this scandal. While Mr. A. G. Hopeful, wants so,
so badly to be part of Horne's resignation deal, so he could stick
around until 2014, he can't have his treat and eat it too. This is a
classic example of the kid spilling his candy in the lobby.
