B'klyn ACORN Cleared Over Giving Illegal Advice on How to Hide Money from Prostitution


What kind of justice is this?

Democrat Brooklyn DA, Charles Hynes, who made his fame on the 1986 racial attack at Howard Beach, didn’t see anything wrong with ACORN workers giving advice on how to perform legal activity to a pimp and a prostitute.

How is that exactly?

Anybody want to check Hynes’s checking account for non-profit donations for his re-election fund?

The New York Daily News reports:

Brooklyn prosecutors on Monday cleared ACORN of criminal wrongdoing after a four-month probe that began when undercover conservative activists filmed workers giving what appeared to be illegal advice on how to hide money. While the video by James O'Keefe and Hannah Giles seemed to show three ACORN workers advising a prostitute how to hide ill-gotten gains, the unedited version was not as clear, according to a law enforcement source.

"They edited the tape to meet their agenda," said the source.

O'Keefe and Giles - who visited ACORN offices in several cities, including its Brooklyn headquarters - stirred controversy when they posted the videos on their Web site.
They were hailed as heroes by the likes of Rush Limbaugh and their footage led several government agencies to temporarily cut funding for ACORN as the prosecutors opened an investigation.

"On Sept. 15, 2009, my office began an investigation into possible criminality on the part of three ACORN employees," Brooklyn District Attorney Charles Hynes said in a one-paragraph statement issued Monday afternoon.

"That investigation is now concluded and no criminality has been found."
