Florida Republican investigated for 'potential election criminal misconduct'
Eric Robinson, a prominent Republican political committee chair, this month was under investigation for “potential election criminal misconduct.”
The revelation came through an executive order by Gov. Ron DeSantis reassigning the case to State Attorney Andrew Warren. The order was signed on Sept. 22.
The matter moved from the 12th Judicial Circuit in Sarasota to the 13th Judicial Circuit in Tampa at the request of State Attorney Ed Brodsky, who utilizes Robinson’s services as his campaign treasurer. The order also states the State Attorney’s Office employs Robinson in a professional capacity.
The Governor’s order allows any case the comes from an investigation to move ahead in the 12th Circuit rather than the one where Robinson lives.
For his part, Robinson said he has no idea what prompted any criminal investigation.
