John Edwards' former aide at courthouse during inquiry
RALEIGH (AP) — A longtime loyalist and aide to two-time Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards spent the day inside a federal courthouse amid an investigation into how his former boss spent campaign funds.
The Associated Press on Wednesday morning saw Andrew Young walk into the building in Raleigh where a grand jury was meeting. He declined to talk and did not leave through the public entrance.
His attorney, David Geneson, didn't return repeated calls from AP.
Young in 2007 claimed to be the father of Rielle Hunter's baby.
Edwards has admitted to an affair with Hunter that he says ended in 2006. That year, Edwards' political action committee paid Hunter's video production firm $100,000 for work.
Edwards has said federal investigators are looking into how he used campaign funds.
