Sen. Reid Rejects Alleged Link to Bribery Case
Claims to have no knowledge of of the man at the center of the investigation
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid broke days of silence on Sunday evening to deny any knowledge or involvement in a Utah case in which a man claims to have funneled money to others in an attempt to get the Nevada Democrat to intervene in a Federal Trade Commission case.
"Senator Reid has no knowledge or involvement regarding Mr. Johnson's case," a statement from Reid's office said. "These unsubstantiated allegations implying Senator Reid's involvement are nothing more than innuendo and simply not true."
