GOP Operative Guilty In Coingate Trial

Bye-bye Tom:

Jurors have found a Republican fundraiser guilty of stealing over $2 million in rare coins from the state of Ohio Worker's Compensation fund--and funneling some of the money to the Republican party.

Ex-GOP fundraiser Tom Noe had pleaded not guilty to charges of corrupt activity, theft, money laundering, and forgery.

The indictment's most serious charges carry a mandatory 10-year prison sentence.

Thanks for helping turn Ohio Democratic, Tom. You can think about that while you rot in your cell for your 27 month federal sentence (and that's before you start the the 3 years + for the 1st degree felony theft conviction...)
