Jim Greer Lawyers Up

Former Republican Party of Florida chairman Jim Greer's lawyer J. Cheney Mason may call Dean Cannon, Bill McCollum, Mike Haridopolis, John Thrasher and Charlie Crist to the stand. Greer has been indicted on one count of organized fraud, one count grand theft and four counts of felony grand theft. I am not sure what Mason's strategy is but powerful Republicans being summoned by the defense cannot be good for the Florida GOP establishment.

Mason is seeking to have the charges against Greer dismissed.


"I believe we'll be able to prove Jim Greer is not guilty whatsoever," said Mason.


That doesn't explain why Greer spent 41,421.31 of RPOF money in Las Vegas. The RPOF is a nonprofit and subject to nonprofit regulations.

Mason will ask a judge to Office of Statewide Prosecution. The Attorney General office run by Bill McCollum oversees the OSP.
