Chris Mattei Biography

Chris Mattei is one of the most popular and richest Lawyer who was born on May 25, 1978 in Hartford, United States. Christopher “Chris” Michael Mattei (born May 25 1978) is a prominent American lawyer. He was previously the Assistant United States Attorney and Chief of the Financial Fraud & Public Corruption section of the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Connecticut. Mattei was also Director for the Connecticut Public Corruption Task Force.

Mattei prosecuted the former Connecticut governor John G. Rowland, as well as U.S. Congressional candidate Lisa Wilson-Foley, for violating federal laws governing campaign finance. Mattei also was the prosecutor for George Gallo, former Chief of Staff to the Minority Leader of the Connecticut House of Representatives, for committing fraud in Connecticut’s campaign finance system. The year 2012 was the time Mattei was able to prosecute a corruption group of eight people who sought an advantageous business tax status as a condition for illegal contributions to campaigns.

In May 2013, Mattei led the conviction of Robert Braddock Jr., the former campaign finance director for Christopher G. Donovan’s 2012 failed Congressional bid. Braddock, along with seven political operatives and tobacco retailers, were accused of conspiring to violate campaign finance laws by disguising the source of $30,000 in contributions made to the Donovan campaign.

In April 2015, Mattei led the prosecution against former Connecticut Republican State Party Chairman and Chief of Staff for the Connecticut House of Representatives, George Gallo. Gallo pleaded guilty to federal mail fraud and admitted that he steered the business of Republican legislative candidates to a Florida direct mail and printing company and received about $117,000 in kickbacks from the company.

In a response to the government’s summary, Mattei declared, “This is a case that goes to the very heart of the most basic right we have in America. The right to vote, the right to make informed decisions about who is going to represent us. Every American is entitled to certain information. Who’s paying a candidate, who is the candidate beholden to? And in back-to-back election cycles in 2010 and 2012, Mr. Rowland sought to deprive voters of that information. He was going to be paid to steer that candidate right into the United States government and he didn’t want anyone to know it.”
