Is John Edwards pay money silence? Believe it or not, not a news media picked up on this point, except for the National Enquirer.
In 2007, journalists began to question the relationship between Edwards and Hunter, who produced the video "webisodes" for his campaign. The New York Post had published a gossip item about a presidential candidate with a friend in New York and another journalist had written about the sudden disappearance of videos from the website of the campaign Edwards.
The National Enquirer in December discovered a then pregnant Hunter, who had moved from New York a few miles from the Edwards presidential campaign headquarters in North Carolina. She was driving a car registered to Andrew Young, a senior Edwards, and living in a gated community a few blocks from where the youth lived with his wife and three children, the newspaper reported.
Shortly after Young claimed, through his lawyer, he was the father of the child to hunters, and had left the Edwards campaign and asked for privacy, he worked to heal family. The Enquirer and others have reported a number of facts which, while not prove paternity, provide a difficult effort to fund and conceal the pregnancy.
Reports stated Hunter moved within blocks of Andrew Young and his wife, Cheri, and their children, even sharing meals. When questioned by the Enquirer, Hunter first denied her identity and then refused all questions. Andrew Young has also been Co on its identity and blocked the car of an investigative journalist in his driveway, while Cheri Young called 911. No charges were filed against the journalist, Alan Butterfield.
A few months later, Hunter and the children had moved to the West Coast. Enquirer reporters say they have all moved into the house itself, in a fenced area of Montecito, an exclusive section of Santa Barbara, California, and one of the most expensive communities in the nation.
FOXNews.com confirmed that the public folders Cheri connect young people in rented house worth about $ 4 million. Since leaving New York, no public records exist of Hunter living anywhere, however, when her daughter, Frances Hunter, was born, she signed the birth certificate in Santa Barbara on February 27.
The space for "father" was left blank.
Funding of two families
As for reports Edwards pays "hush money" to Hunter and Young, Edwards said he had never paid anyone money to silence on the matter.
A source close to the former Edwards campaign confirmed to FOX News reports thatFred Baron, Dallas lawyer and former finance chairman for Edwards' campaign, secretly provided financial help to both Hunter and Young. He apparently paid for his own funds and told other news outlets Edwards did not know the arrangement.
Edwards said he learned of the payments through reporters and that he had "no knowledge" of payments out of it. LOL!
The payments were huge $ 15,000 per month to Hunter, according to reports, plus other payments to young people.
The Youngs have lived in a high-end, closed in North Carolina, just south of Chapel Hill Community, renting a property then owned by a major donor to Edwards, former NBA star Eric Montross. He told the FOXNews. Com Youngs paid market rates and the arrangement was "totally free of any connection with the political campaign."
Multiple calls left at owner's house in California have not been returned.
He could have paid the girl. It is not possible to repay the media, but nobody really gives a crap about it. It would not be the choice Obama sin Laden VP anyway.
They do not return it because there was no verifiable evidence of the case. It.
