Ex-aide says Young wrongly used funds
WASHINGTON -- A former aide to Alaska Congressman Don Young told criminal investigators in 2008 that Young and his wife, Lu, used campaign funds for personal expenses including meals and travel between Alaska and Washington, D.C.
The statement from the unnamed former aide was included in hundreds of pages of documents released Friday in response to a judge's order in a freedom of information lawsuit brought by the watchdog group Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington. CREW was seeking information related to the federal investigation of Young, many details of which have never been made public.
The documents include an Aug. 30, 2010, memo from the FBI saying the case was being closed.
"After review by the Chief of the Public Integrity Section, Department of Justice, it was determined that there was ultimately not evidence beyond a reasonable doubt to ultimately convict Congressman Young," the FBI memo said.
