Gerlach’s Campaign Manager Testifies November 13 2009
The grand jury presentment Corbett released mentions Scott Migli, campaign manager for U.S. Rep. Jim Gerlach, who will face Corbett in the 2010 Republican primary. The grand jury found that former House Speaker John Perzel, charged with theft and conspiracy, gave Migli a $100,000-a-year job in the fall of 2006 that produced “no meaningful legislative work” before he left in 2008.
“I did nothing wrong,” Migli said. “The Attorney General’s Office made it clear when they initially reached out to me that they were not after me.”
Gerlach’s campaign has attacked Corbett for months over his handling of the legislative investigation, saying Corbett should resign because it’s a conflict of interest to investigate state political leaders while seeking their support. Migli yesterday pointed to a meeting between Perzel and Corbett in October 2007, when Perzel tried to sell Corbett on a software package for his child predator unit.
Scott Migli was the executive director for the Pa GOP.
