Hope he rots there>> Cunningham serving sentence at prison work camp in Tucson


Ex-lawmaker said he accepted bribes from Wilkes
By Onell R. Soto
UNION-TRIBUNE STAFF WRITER
February 14, 2007

Once a member of Congress, Randy “Duke” Cunningham now spends his days working at a Tucson prison and his nights sleeping on a bunk bed in a barracks with more than 100 other minimum-security prisoners.

“It's just one big, open dorm,” said Josias “Joe” Salazar, director of the work camp at the Tucson federal prison.

Cunningham once accepted bribes in the form of fine furnishings, including antique chests of drawers referred to as French commodes.
He now keeps his clothes in a small wall locker and shares a desk with another prisoner. Everything is bolted down.

Cunningham was transferred to the prison last month, nearly 10 months after he began serving an eight-year, four-month sentence for conspiracy and tax evasion. Information on what sort of work he does was not available.

“He's getting settled in,” his lawyer, K. Lee Blalack, said in a recent interview.

Cunningham admitted accepting more than $2.4 million in bribes from defense contractors Brent Wilkes, the Poway businessman indicted yesterday, and Mitchell Wade.

When he pleaded guilty Nov. 28, 2005, Cunningham pledged to work with investigators looking into other aspects of the case, an investigation that led to this week's court action.

Blalack wouldn't speak directly about what kind of cooperation Cunningham provided, but said, “the process of making amends on a scale like this is not easy.”

Cunningham spent most of the past year in North Carolina, where doctors at a prison hospital checked him out – he has battled cancer and other ailments – before prison officials decided on the transfer to Arizona.

“I made some decisions I'll be sorry for the rest of my life,” he wrote in a September letter to Copley News Service reporter Marcus Stern. Stern wrote the initial story questioning the 2003 sale of Cunningham's Del Mar-area home, which appeared in The San Diego Union-Tribune in June 2005.

Cunningham's wife, Nancy, entered into a deal with prosecutors in which she gave up an effort to claim hundreds of thousands of dollars from the sale of the couple's Rancho Santa Fe home.

She pledged to work with prosecutors and they promised they wouldn't file charges against her.

Her lawyer said recently that she is planning to divorce Cunningham but hasn't filed the necessary papers yet.

The 65-year-old former congressman, meanwhile, continues to receive a government pension that the National Taxpayers Union estimates at $65,000 a year, about $37,000 from his time on Capitol Hill, the rest from his military service.

In pleading guilty, Cunningham agreed to pay $1.8 million in restitution at $1,500 a month while in jail, and at $1,000 a month once he's out.
