The Justice Department is investigating contributions to John Edward's campaign made by four legal assistants at Turner & Associates PA. Edward's returned the donations.

UPDATE: The family of Shirleen Fujimoto, a secretary at the Girardi & Keese law firm gave $8,000 this year, $4,000 in 2001 and another $4,000 this year to Gephardt. That's 15% of their income just this year.

Edward's association with lawyers is already turning into a liability. The proximity to corruption is troublesome.
