Bribery Probe Ties Money to 1948 Tax Case
Investigators pursue links between bags of money and a bribery scheme alleged to involve a former top tax official. The probe centers on Henry W. Grunewald and witnesses who previously refused to testify, noting Gotham Meat partners the Bermans and the 1944 suspension of criminal tax fraud actions. Records show a 1948 decision to end the Gotham-Berman criminal aspects, while deputy revenue commissioner Bolich later faced tax evasion charges. The Bermans declined to reveal if they sent $60,000 to Grunewald amid questions of further payments.
