Prosecutors agreed to drop an illegal campaign contribution charge against Sears, Roebuck and Co. in exchange for its cooperation in an investigation of contributions to a political action committee associated with House Majority Leader Tom DeLay.Link.
A Travis County judge signed off on the agreement Thursday. It calls for the retailer to enact additional internal policies, and to strengthen its policy against making illegal contributions in any state.
If Sears has to be let off scot free, then so be it. As long as Tom DeLay is finally prosecuted for his corrupt and unlawful acts then the legal system can do whatever it wants with Sears.
