Less than 24 hours after Jesse Benton was acquitted on charges that he lied to the FBI, America's Liberty PAC, which supports the Rand Paul presidential campaign, paid out $79,681 to Jesse, according to a filing the PAC made today with the FEC.
It is still not clear, of course, whether Jesse is completely out of the woods with regard to government prosecution in the Kent Sorenson case. The Department of Justice has still not said whether they will seek new charges against Benton after the judge threw out some earlier charges because prosecutors when they presented their case to the grand jury that originally indicted Benton, used testimony Benton made during a proffer .
