From
ONN:
Investigators are wondering whether a wine collection valued at a half-million dollars may have been purchased with Ohio Workers Compensation funds.
This latest twist came during a raid on a house outside Denver, Colorado. The home belongs to a former business associate of Tom Noe, the Republican fundraiser at the center of the scandal.
From the home of rare-coin dealer Michael Storeim, investigators seized computers, invoices and hundreds of coins.
Detectives also searched Storeim's business.
They are investigating possible theft and forgery involving two coins valued at $400,000. They are coins that mysteriously disappeared in the mail. It's separate from the Ohio investigation, but Sergeant Richard Webb says they are closely related.
"Ohio authorities are continuing to send us additional information of their investigation and their audit, and we're analyzing that information to present to our district attorney's office," says Webb.
And this story keeps on giving...how about WineGate?:
Also seized at Storeim's house was a wine collection, 3,500 bottles of wine, valued at $500,000. There's some indication, according to Colorado authorities, the collection was purchased with company funds, which they say could mean Ohio funds.
Way to go Ohio GOP! This is what you get for "bowing to the will of the candidates" instead of maintaining the integrity of the party. This is what you get when you build a tent so big the foundations can't hold the thing up...
