Tickets, and that is when the feds came in and grabbed them. so they ve been arrested and indicted for pouring foreign money into the u.s. election. first we go to cnn crime and justice reporter shimon. break this down. what just happened? reporter: this is a very quick statement. i think what we saw here from what we ve been told prosecutors were not ready to bring forward these charges. they were not ready to make these charges public that that is partially why they did not take questions. also, the investigation. i don t think they re ready to talk about exactly where they stand in terms of this investigation. looks like it s still very much an active investigation. so for anyone who was involved in this certainly concern that they could get arrested now. obviously, the big question is rudy giuliani. what did he know? what did he know about these men and who was funding some of their contributions? was he in anyway receiving any money from these men? ....
