From the New York website: Talk about a well-deserved penalty.
U.S. prosecutors indicted fourteen high-ranking FIFA officials and executives in Zurich Wednesday, and slapped them with a long list of charges including conspiracy, racketeering, and corruption.
According to an indictment unsealed Wednesday, four of the men own thirteen properties across South Florida and Georgia which were allegedly used in connection with the crimes. If convicted, the U.S. government will seek forfeiture of the properties.
Among the charges against CONCACAF President Jack Warner is that he withdrew funds from a CONCACAF-affiliated account to purchase a Miami condo in 2005 which was held in a family member’s name. CONCACAF is the continental governing body for association football in North America, Central America and the Caribbean.
Although none of the properties listed in the indictment are located in New York, it was reported that ex-FIFA official Chuck Blazer rented an $18,000-per-month apartment at the Trump Tower in Manhattan during his tenure, and spent another $6,000 per month on a pad for his cats, according to the New York Daily News.
FIFA Vice President Jeffrey Webb, who owns several residences across Georgia, allegedly received a wire transfer to fund a new pool at his home in Loganville in 2012. He also allegedly received wire transfers to purchase a home in Stone Mountain, according to the indictment.
FVF (Venezuelan Football Federation) President Rafael Esquivel and FIFA executive Eduardo Li also own several properties in South Florida.
