Stone helped get Broward Sheriff Israel elected. And now, Stone has the sheriff's ear.

When Israel took the sheriff's helm in early 2013, in the first five months he added to BSO's payroll Stone's book-writing partner, Stone's book publicist and Stone's long-time executive assistant. He had Stone's stepson transferred to detective, though it was early in his career, with just two years at the Sheriff's Office.

Stone's connections to BSO reach higher. His longtime friend Ron Gunzburger, who connected him with Sheriff Israel in the first place, is the agency's general counsel.

Stone is known for dredging up titillating tidbits from a candidate's past and presenting it in the worst possible light. He's been known to infiltrate an opponent's campaign, and to distort the truth in misleading robocalls to voters, with fake caller ID labels.

But Israel said he has no criticisms of Stone's negative campaign tactics, even those used against him.

Israel said it's clear Stone is effective. When Stone was against him, he lost. When Stone was on his side, he won.

"For him to be on my side," Israel said, "I'm very fortunate."

Sheriff Scott Israel makes new hires to 'connect with community'
11 'specialists,' 'liaisons' hired, several with political ties to sheriff

But one of those hires, at an annual $45,000 salary, is a freelance reporter named Mike Colapietro. He's from New York, and his only tie to Broward appears to be that he co-wrote a book with political dirty trickster Roger Stone, who strongly backed Israel this past election season. The recently published book is a conspiratorial tale alleging that Lyndon Baines Johnson killed John F. Kennedy.

Colapietro is at least the second associate of Stone, the former political director of Ponzi schemer Scott Rothstein, hired by BSO since Israel took office.

Stone's long-time assistant, Dianne Thorne, was also hired as a "community specialist" at a salary of $60,000 a year. Thorne was the founder of the so-called "Miami Tea Party," which smeared Israel's opponents in the last election with misleading robo-calls. The Australian-born Thorne lives in Miami.

isn't it?

one would think this would have been headline news...

in and out of GOP Politics since Nixon. No one has nailed his hide to the barn door yet. Understand he and Trump worked the Intimation bit in New York for years.

Waiting for Mueller to roll this sucker up once and for all.

Defending Israel.

I won't link to it here.

I think Stone's involvement in this is a massive red flag.

connection to the Broward County Florida Sherriff and his Election. Hope Mueller takes Stone down once and for all.

Hopefully if Stone is involved, Mueller is watching.
