Chris Collins (R-NY) Indicted for Insider Trading
 

Rep. Chris Collins, R-N.Y., has been arrested on insider trading charges lodged by the Justice Department, law enforcement officials said Wednesday morning.

The indictment obtained from a federal grand jury also charges Collins' son, Cameron Collins, as well as the father of his fiancee, Stephen Zarsky.

The indictment relates to "securities of Innate Immunotherapeutics ... an Australian biotechnology company on whose board of directors Christopher Collins served," the DOJ said.

Collins passed nonpublic information about Innate's drug trial results to his son in order to help him "make timely trades in Innate stock and tip others," the indictment alleges.

When Louise Slaughter (D-NY) exposed his likely illegal actions last year, Collins (in typical Trump fashion) called her a "despicable human being."

This lowlife was the first Congresscritter to endorse the Lying Dotard and became the Dotard's liaison to Congress during his campaign. Does the corruption surrounding the Lying Dotard ever stop?

Wow! This Uber Trumpublican is going to jail along with his son and the son's fiancé. I wonder how many more of these denizens of Trump's bottomless swamp are going to be exposed and prosecuted? More than Nixon? More than St. Ronnie, the original dotard and McCarthy snitch? :p

Corrupblican seems to fit the new GOP in control. The new Trickle-Down Economics.....

Wanna bet there will be a long list of fellow conspirators of GOP propensity mixed up in this very companies stock sell off?
