Witness Tampering Alleged

by TChris

This is an interesting approach to witness tampering.

Real estate developer Charles Kushner hired a New York City call girl to have sex with a cooperating witness in a grand jury investigation, had the sex act videotaped and sent photos and a copy of the tape to the witness' wife, U.S. Attorney Christopher Christie said.

Kushner was retaliating against the witness, a former employee, for cooperating in a criminal investigation of Kushner for possible tax fraud and illegal campaign contributions, and was trying to discourage him from cooperating further, Christie said.

Kushner's attorney, Benjamin Brafman, says the charges "are entirely baseless." More on the story here.
