I read the link story, and another one, from a later date and it seems pretty clear - Newt’s campaign has a disagreement with the FEC, they have corresponded back and forth, and there was an October 27th date for compliance of requested info. So, I guess that means no verdict so far. I am sure the Washington Times consulted only the most pro-Gingrich experts on the matter. No verdict so far. I’ll wait and see how it turns out.
It’s apparent though, Newt wasn’t raising money for a charity, to help poor children and adults, and then misusing it. So far, that much is clear.
