Bill Hudak: Tierney had to know...
>>“Congressman Tierney, who has been elected every two years from 1996 to date, has to have more knowledge than he led everyone to believe before the 2010 election, because apparently the whole Eremian family, including Patrice Tierney, her son John Chew, her brothers, and her father, were involved in a widespread and regular scheme, some for decades, which affected John Tierney’s family finances directly,” Hudak said.
>>“Patrice Tierney avoided the possibility of a maximum penalty of 12 years in prison and a $400,000 fine concerning her involvement in the scheme by reaching a plea bargain agreement on September 20, 2010, agreeing to plead guilty to aiding and abetting tax fraud and cooperate with authorities, before the public even became aware of her involvement,” said Hudak. “The deal was negotiated behind closed doors, was originally sealed from public view expressly to avoid publicity, was opened on October 4, 2010 with a guilty plea made within 24 hours, and Congressman Tierney himself then took charge of all public announcements concerning his Wife,” Hudak continued. “One has to wonder if her upcoming testimony is part of the arrangement,” he said.

(Patrice Tierney got a slap on the wrist.)
The Tierney's are operating in what I must assume is approved Massachusetts style. After all, Whitey's brother certainly knew nothing of his extra-legal activities. In fact, he had absolutely no idea Whitey was in Santa Monica.
One brother's with the gov. The other is with the crooks, and a third sibling is in Holy Orders. Southie tradition lives! Perhaps Mama Tierney will now take the veil? Those Bingo operations could use more professionalism, IMHO.
Mr. Tierney trying for the most corrupt in Congress award.
