Key Witness In DiMasi Trial Back On The Stand
Play
"If one of us breaks, we all fall."
That's what former Massachusetts House Speaker, Salvatore DiMasi, is alleged to have said to his alleged co-conspirators when their alleged kick-back scheme started to come apart. Allegedly.
Who's doing all the alleging? Today it's the one who broke. Joseph Lally, the big money software salesman who claims to have hatched a complex scheme to funnel cash to DiMasi in exchange for help landing a state contract.
Lally has flipped. He is now the prosecution's star witness, and on Thursday he's on the stand for a second straight day.
