John Edwards: Seeking Plea Deal, Scared of Jail
Disgraced politician John Edwards is determined to work out a "plea deal" to avoid jail time as the federal grand jury investigating continues to examine his case.
The bombshell developments surfaced earlier this week about the former U.S. Senator and presidential candidate from sources close to the situation in Raleigh, N.C.
John Edwards has been investigated by both the FBI and IRS for possible campaign violations related to paying hush money to his weird mistress Rielle Hunter.
The grand jury convened back in April 2009, and the National Enquirer reported this March that an indictment was imminent and Edwards will face consequences.
Sources say "John is terrified" of jail, too. Better man up, Johnny!
Will John Edwards do time for his bribes to Rielle Hunter?
But he may escape that fate yet. Edwards is working "around the clock behind the scenes with his lawyers to work out a deal with prosecutors," a source disclosed.
"John does not want to be indicted - and he certainly doesn't want to go to jail! It appears he's willing to cop to a misdemeanor. He's asking to keep his law license."
It appears, however, that "he will admit some guilt."
Beginning in 2007, a series of stories blew the lid off Edwards' affair with blonde divorcee Rielle Hunter and the birth of their love child, daughter Frances Quinn.
Rielle was on Edwards' campaign payroll. In August 2008, the issue of "hush money" paid to Rielle and Andrew Young, a married Edwards' aide, first arose.
It was Young who helped cover up the affair by claiming he, not Edwards, was involved with Rielle and had fathered her child, he later admitted.

Correction: What we have is a group that knows history very well and think they can dupe the ignorant masses and profit by waging illegal wars on innocent people, even if that leadership must kill its own citizens in order to profit (which is what 9/11 was really about). The occult wizards inside hiding out in the private/foreign-owned Federal Reserve Bank charge citizens interest on the money the private bankers print and loan to the US government to finance wars.
That's the Speilberg, that's the big game.

What's really going on. What is Ri-elly-y going on?
First of all, this was a plot in an episode of the tv series "Dead Zone." A senator is about to become president when a news reporter has an affair with him. He becomes president and the nation is nuked.
So, it looks like the nuke will not be on Edward's watch after all. But we can be sure it will be blamed on Islam and that Iran will be blamed when Iran isn't an Islamic nation. Persian leaders embraced all religions in Persia's 2,700 year old Empire.
