Aiken Political Operative Arrested

The following is another painful example of how far politicos will go to help their preferred candidate win an election.

In addition to the Aiken Standard article I suggest that readers check out the press release on the SLED website. December 16- Aiken County Woman charged----

Check out the on line comments. It appears that  law observance is unimportant to many of Ginnies supporters. Four comments sound familiar and were presumably made by the same cast of characters that produced the now defunct Easy Whiskey and the comatose Kaolin Kronicle aka as the Kremlin Kronicle.

State Law Enforcement Division agents have arrested Aiken County GOP treasurer Virginia Austin Allen, 47, for her alleged role in orchestrating a number of automated phone calls earlier this summer that endorsed S.C. Sen. Greg Ryberg and then S.C. House District 81 seat candidate Scott Singer.

The calls showed Ryberg’s business office number as the origin of the calls, but Ryberg said he did not pay for, place or authorize them, denying any connection to the “robo calls.”

Singer also denies any connection to the calls.

Allen is charged with six counts of unlawful use of a telephone.

She was booked at the Aiken County detention center and released on her own personal recognizance.

State agents will be releasing arrest warrants today, according to officials.

  2. Sounds to me like the now defunct Kaolin Chronicles posters finally got caught.
