Hawaiʻi Based Defense Contractors Indicted for Illegal Campaign Contributions

(AP) — Three former executives of a Hawaiʻi-based defense contractor have been indicted on charges of funneling illegal donations to the reelection campaign of Republican Sen. Susan Collins of Maine. Former Navatek CEO Martin Kao and two others were indicted Thursday. They’re accused of using company credit cards, a shell company and individual shell donors to make illegal contributions. The indictment didn’t note any wrongdoing by Collins. Her campaign said it was unaware of the allegations until a search warrant was reported in the news media.
