Meet Fred Baron
Well, he's apparently a friend and supporter of John Edwards; and, he's made his money as a trial lawyer, too.
That's all I'm going to say...
That's all I'm going to say...
At Law.com, Zach Lowe discusses some of his past and present:
"Baron, a trial lawyer who became one of the kings of asbestos litigation, has admitted paying Rielle Hunter and former Edwards campaign staffer Andrew Young's relocation expenses when they moved out of North Carolina and into million-dollar homes in California in the last two years.
The payments may amount to as much as $15,000 per month, some news outlets reported.
Baron's admissions and Edwards' acknowledgment of the affair came after the two-time presidential hopeful --and 2004 Democratic vice-presidential candidate -- spent months denying reports of marital infidelity published in the National Enquirer."
