According to the Philadelphia Inquirer Al Sharpton was caught on tape in 2003 proposing Ronald A. White who is a fund-raiser win a $40 million pension-fund deal in New York in exchange for helping him raise $50,000 for his presidential campaign.
The FBI has found more than 20 conversations between Sharpton and Ronald that were recorded in 2003 .During the talks between the two men ,White offered to help raise $25,000 instead. The paper wrote:
“If you bring my guys up on this hedge fund, and I have the right conversation,” White said on the tape, “I’ll give you what you need.”
“Cool,” Sharpton replied.
The agents are currently investigating that case and are examining whether Sharpton violated campaign-finance laws or used money donated to his National Action Network for personal use.
