Maragan Convicted Of Lying To Solons
John Maragan once linked to White House feuds was convicted in a district court jury trial of lying during Senate investigations. The jury found he falsely claimed minimal Bark account holdings and denied business with the government, while being cleared on a main charge of receiving no government funds for negotiations from 1945 to mid year. The verdict contrasts government portrayal of him as a peripatetic insider with the White House and business ties, and defense argues no wrongdoing in dealings with agencies.
