Korean Probe May Embarrass House Democratic Leadership
The House Ethics Committee faces a long inquiry into South Korean influence peddling on Capitol Hill with Georgia Democrat Jack Flynt under pressure to resign as chairman. Key figures include Philip Lacovara who quit as special counsel, and discussions around whether Speaker Thomas ONeill and leaders face scrutiny for possible cover ups. The probe examines gifts and trips to South Korea, campaign contributions to Brademas and McFall, and at least a hundred Congressmen tied to free trips and gifts amid a contentious run of testimony and calls for full disclosure.
