A federal grand jury investigation into Moore's 1972 re election campaign finances appears unlikely to produce an indictment. Defense attorney William G. Hundley said he believes no charges will be filed, while noting discussions with Justice Department officials. The probe involves alleged $25,000 from Diversified Mountaineer Corp. and a $20,000 corporate donation from Ashland Oil Corp.
