Repub Stole $844K from Party
A former treasurer of the National Republican Congressional Committee admitted in court Friday that he stole more than $844,000 from the NRCC and several other political fundraising committees. Christopher J. Ward, 41, formerly of Bethesda, pleaded guilty in federal court to interstate transportation of stolen property. Under the plea agreement, prosecutors will seek a 37-month prison term and Ward will have to pay back his victims.
