Statement by Chief of Staff for Congressman Jackson - Kenneth Edmonds

I just received this direct email from Kenneth Edmonds, the spokesperson for Congressman Jesse Jackson, Jr.:



"As a responsible citizen and elected official, Congressman Jackson has in the past provided information to federal authorities regarding his personal knowledge of perceived corruption and governmental misconduct.This was completely unrelated to the current federal investigation regarding the U.S. Senate appointment. And it is absolutely inaccurate to describe the Congressman as an informant."


Kenneth Edmonds, spokesman for Congressman Jackson.



That's confirmed.  Kenneth Edmonds is Chief of Staff for Congressman Jackson.  But he sent the email via richmondgrouponline.com.


But I can't find a direct connection between the two. In other words, was this actually Kenneth Edmonds who sent the email?  No. The bottom of the email lists Kenneth Johnson as having sent it, not Edmonds.  It's harmless to be sure, but it would have been better to send out something that looks more official than this.
