Just before his Clinton event, Jinnah co-hosted a fundraiser for Democratic presidential candidate John F. Kerry.

The campaigns say they knew nothing of Jinnah's alleged wrongdoing. Told by The Times in early March of his indictment, Clinton's PAC and Boxer's campaign returned suspect money to the U.S. Treasury or charity.

"You are working so hard for me that I just don't know what to say any more. I've never seen anybody who has been more loyal and more effective and really just having greater success supporting someone than you."
