Weldon redux...too much irony to skip

Bill Bender, who moved on from the Delco Times to the Philly Daily News, is covering Delaware County. His recent article, Corruption job for Weldon firm, talks about how Weldon's new employer,

Defense Solutions, an Exton-based project-management firm, announced yesterday that it had landed a contract with the Bashundhara Group to assist the corporate conglomerate in "ridding itself of even the hint of corruption and illegal business practices."
Well, if they do end up assigning Weldon to this project, at least he'll know what to look for!

Also included is an update on the FBI investigation:

Meanwhile, Weldon's fate remains unknown, nearly eight months after FBI agents raided the homes and business office of his daughter and close political ally. The probe is reportedly focused on whether Weldon helped the pair obtain foreign lobbying contracts.
An FBI spokeswoman said yesterday that the investigation is ongoing, but declined to elaborate.
Just for kicks, we'll keep our eyes on our old pal Weldon and his friends and family.
