THE BRAD BLOG: "OH MY OHIO: Noe Indicted on 3 Counts in Bush/Cheney '04 Money-Laundering Scheme!": "A federal grand jury has indicted Tom Noe, the former Maumee coin dealer suspected of laundering money into President Bush�s reelection campaign, Mr. Noe�s attorney told The Blade today.

Gregory A. White, the U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio, will hold a news conference in Toledo to announce �a major public corruption indictment.�

The U.S. Attorney�s office announced in April that it was investigating Mr. Noe for possible violations of federal campaign finance laws. Sources have told The Blade that authorities believe Mr. Noe gave money to several people who then contributed to the Bush-Cheney campaign."
