Car dealer Robert F. Bleecker testified that he gave Gov. Mike Easley an SUV to lease with little more than a handshake and a promise to pay for it later.
Bleecker testified that the lease had no finite limit. He was waiting for the Easley's to let him know when they were done. And through a paperwork error, the Easleys were paying insurance on another, more expensive car that they had rejected.
Bleecker's dealership paid the insurance on the SUV they kept.
"The only customer you've ever treated in this fashion was Gov. Easley," Board of Elections chairman Larry Leake.
Bleecker acknowledged that no one else got that deal.
