(Sniffle) But, but....Rooty is a high-paid global security expert.
How could he have known Federal law prohibits payment of a commission in return for a federal contract?

Lots of people seem to have worked to make Rudy very rich in a hurry. News reports say that Rudy met Asher in 2002. But Kenneth Langone, head of Rudy’s Leadership PAC, knew Asher at least as early as 1996 when Langone invested in Database Technologies (Asher’s company). Langone then hooked DBT up with a merger with Patlex Corp (of which Asher was also a major investor). Langone and Asher made millions on Patlex (and DBT), as did another major shareholder—George Soros.
