His week's off to a rough start.
NEW YORK — Former Rep. Chris Collins pleaded guilty Tuesday in an insider trading case, a day after he resigned from Congress and set off a scramble to fill his seat in his Republican-leaning district.
According to the indictment, Collins was attending the Congressional Picnic at the White House in 2017 when he received an email from the company’s chief executive saying that a drug developed to treat multiple sclerosis had proven to be a clinical failure. Cameron Collins is accused of passing along the information to his fiancée’s father, so he could also dump his stock. The son is expected to plead guilty on Wednesday.
