Legal experts weigh potential charges
A few FBIs and the officials of the Ministry of Justice believed that the conspiracy against Homan was a strong criminal case to give bribes against the promise of assisting cash records and contracts.
According to the documents reviewed by MSNBC, justice officials thought about four potential criminal accusations: conspiracy, bribery and two types of fraud.
“If someone who is not yet a public official, but waiting for the official actions after being appointed after being appointed, they cannot be accused of bribery.” He said. “However, they can be accused of a conspiracy to give bribery. The crime on the accusation of conspiracy is the agreement of taking a criminal action in the future.”
Legal experts, when they are public officials, a person promising to influence the federal contracts, said that the federal bribery regulations cannot be accused of federal bribery regulations until it is named or appointed to such a task. However, searching for money to improperly influence federal contracts continues to be a crime regardless of whether the official status or whether the promises have been fulfilled.
