The U.S. Attorney's Office in St. Louis provided upon request images presented in court today of former state Rep. T.D. El-Amin soliciting and accepting bribes from a local gas station owner who was cooperating with federal investigators.
The link opens a pdf with three images pulled from a videorecording made covertly by the cooperating witness.
One shows a note written by El-Amin saying he won't talk bribe money in his office because he suspects it is bugged.
Another shows a note El-Amin passed him, asking when some "good faith" bribe money can be kicked his way.
The third - the real howler - shows El-Amin watching as a wad of bribe money is handed across his desk.
Today Judge Henry E. Autrey sentenced El-Amin to 18 months in prison.
