Breaking: Dan Nelson, Chris Tapken to be Indicted?

Dan Nelson Auto rears its ugly head again.

It appears that Dan Nelson and Chris Tapken may be indicted on criminal charges today in the Southern District of Iowa Federal District Court.

From my source:
Just a quick note to let you know that Dan Nelson & Chris Tapken were both indicted on federal charges in the Southern District of Iowa.  The USA hasn't announced this yet but I got an email from Dan's attorney at about 5:15 PM.    I asked him to send me a copy of the indictment ASAP!   I don't know precisely what the charges are, but I am reasonably certain they're related to Federal Bank Fraud and Mail Fraud.   I couldn't reach the AUSA on the case because it was after 5:00 PM, but I would assume they're preparing a press release for tomorrow. Matt Whitaker normally holds a press conference, so that may be the case tomorrow as well.
