Attorney Ron White Dies November 4, 2004 — A Philadelphia power broker and one-time confidante of Mayor John Street, attorney Ron White, has died.
White had been hospitalized at Thomas Jefferson Hospital with pancreatic cancer.
White was a top fund-raiser for Mayor John Street and a key figure in the ongoing F-B-I investigation of City Hall corruption.
White and eleven others including former city Treasurer Corey Kemp were indicted in June, on charges that Kemp allegedly steered city business to White and his clients in exchange for cash and gifts.

God rest his soul, anyway. Maybe he repented before it was too late.

Yup, he's gone.
It's interesting, but the Feds have really got a circle around Street. Getting White cornered was key.
I don't even know that they'll ever necessarily 'get' Street, just keep him under glass and watch the comings and goings.
Truth be told, this was the best thing White could do for Street.

I thought the same thing, but did not post.
My favorite line of his:
I don't know how many of 'em it would have taken to kick my ass. But I knew how many they were going to use.

I just love his whole delivery. EVERYthing he says is funny to me. But I do like the bit about his ex-wife gritching about him not being around to take care of the dog poop on the carpet...

another lawyer bites the dust?? YEAH! Now how many do we have left to go? 1 million of them? Hopefully they will follow this lawyer's example and all will expire at once.
