Why hasnt this been all over the news? Ex-NY Democratic Chairman Indicted The Associated Press Friday, Dec. 15, 2000; 1:12 p.m. EST WHITE PLAINS, N.Y. –– The former chairman of the Rockland County Democratic Party has been indicted on fraud, extortion and bribery charges stemming from his business dealings. Paul Adler, 42, was indicted Thursday on 14 counts by a federal grand jury. If convicted of the most serious count, extortion, he could be sentenced to 20 years in prison. The charges involve three land transactions. In one, Adler allegedly tried to bribe a planning official. Prosecutors said they have a tape recording on which Adler says: "If you can't help your friends, then why get into some of these positions?" Adler, a real estate broker, served as party chairman from 1996 until his arrest in September. He raised funds for Hillary Rodham Clinton's U.S. Senate race and his name surfaced on a list of overnight guests at the White House. washingtonpost.com
