Mary Claire Sanders was commissioned by Scott Stapf at the Tobacco Institute to perform some undefined work in the period September 1986 to December of the same year. It was said to be for 'Prohibition Vide Project Research'
The auditor who examined the books of James Savarese in May 1987 concluded that:
- The work had been commissioned under the instructions of Scott Stapf
- It had been approved by Peter Sparber (ex executive, now a contractor)
- they had instructed Susan Stuntz to have payment made through a system set up for the payment of university economists.
- Stuntz had advised Savarese to pay Ms Sanders $300 per week
- A total of $4,700 had been paid via this oney laundary system.
- At the same time, for the same period the Norrell temporary employment service billed the Institute for $3.062 for 256 hours of work performed by Ms Sanders to the TI's Federal Relations Division.
- This means that the payment was likely to be political. [2]
