PARIS, France (PNN) - February 1, 2017 - Francois Fillon’s French presidential campaign plunged deeper into trouble on Tuesday after further revelations about his use of public funds to employ members of his family.
The Republican candidate’s daughter and son allegedly earned 84,000 euros ($91,000) from 2005 to 2007 while working for him when he was a Senator, Le Canard Enchaine said. His wife, Penelope Fillon, earned more than 900,000 euros over a decade as a parliamentary assistant and a contributor to a magazine while doing little actual work, according to Le Canard.
