Coingate: Noe brags of riches, mansions in video
This is what the MSM is trying to distract voters from hearing about in Ohio. Spread it far and wide....

Jurors finally heard from Tom Noe yesterday — bragging about his luxury home and visits from Gov. Bob Taft and other high ranking politicians.

...

He said he had thrown parties for “the governor of Ohio” and a “U.S. Senator of Ohio” at the home, for which he had chosen the “most expensive” options.

They saw Noe in the role as star of an Internet video created for home-builder Nick Giovannucci, who built two of Noe’s homes and remodeled a third. He was paid more than $420,000 with checks written against Noe’s coin business, Vintage Coins and Collectibles, into which Noe had transferred millions in state funds.

As Noe extolled the virtues of hiring Mr. Giovannucci in the video, the interiors of several Giovannucci-built homes were shown. Jurors saw an indoor batting cage, spacious whirlpools, a spiral staircase, and elaborate home furnishings.

...

The video allowed prosecutors to show some of the luxuries they say Noe could afford by stealing money from the $50 million rare coin funds he managed for the Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation.
