The scandal plagued former governor of New Mexico - who Virginia
Roberts claimed she had underage sex with on Jeffrey Epstein's
orders - has been dragged into the mud once again.

Career politician Bill Richardson has been accused of raking in
hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes and kickbacks while
in office - money which allegedly funded a luxury and debauched
lifestyle including 'sexual services and favors', according to a
recently unsealed legal complaint obtained by DailyMail.com.

According to the lawsuit, Richardson ran a scam dubbed the
'Richardson Ring' which saw the one-time governor benefiting
from money he grafted from business investments into the state
of New Mexico in the early 2000s.

The greedy politician lined his own pockets with cash, used some
money to fund his political campaigns and organizations and also
enjoyed lavish meals, wine and liquor as well as luxury travel
and entertainment, the legal filing claims.

Richardson, 72, served as Governor for New Mexico from January
1, 2003 to December 31, 2010 and during that time he was the
chairman of the State Investment Council (SIC).
