GOV’T LOVES TO PARTY IN VEGAS
California state Sen. Ronald S. Calderon seems to have set up a satellite office here in Las Vegas to host staff retreats, relax in luxury hotels and raise money during title fights, according to the Los Angeles Times. He was caught in a sting operation in October 2012 when he emailed an FBI agent posing as an owner of a movie studio. The agent then paid $4,000 to reserve the good senator a table at the Bellagio nightclub, the Bank, for Halloween night. Calderon then emailed the agent several photos, “including a photograph taken with two individuals who appear to be rappers Nelly and T.I.” This type of activity harks back to so many incidents here we’re not going to even bother to name them.
