Garsson war procurement case expands to Garagon interests
The indictment alleges May took 53.64 in cash checks land and favors from co defendants. If convicted, the four face up to eight years and 40 000 fines each. May could lose public office eligibility. Prosecutor Baisley says many witnesses testify to the alleged conspiracy and May’s misuse of office. The case ties to Senate War Investigating Committee hearings on shells and materiel orders worth 78 million. Key firms include Basin Metal Products Batavia Metal Products and partners in Batavia New York. The defendants deny wrongdoing and the indictment accuses a deliberate fraud plan using May’s influence to win favors for the Garsson combine.
