Judge says Olmert's offences involve moral turpitude: 'Corruption is treason'

None

 

Judge David Rose said at the sentencing of former prime minister Ehud Olmert that the graft charges Olmert was convicted of in March include moral turpitude.

 

Regarding the entire affair, the judge said "those who give bribes are corrupt, but those who receive it inspire disgrace and cause the public to lose faith in the State. Receiving graft is like treason." (Naama Cohen-Friedman)
