Once dubbed “The King of Hollywood”, for the power he wielded over the South Florida city (not Hollywood, California), mega lobbyist Alan Koslow pleaded not guilty to money laundering Thursday morning.

That case involved more than $200,000 in cash that Koslow believed was derived from illegal gambling as well as the sale of narcotics and fake Viagra pills.

Popular South Florida investigative reporter for Local10 News, Bob Norman, questions whether Koslow may be wearing a wire for the Feds.

All indications are that Koslow is cooperating with the feds. He was initially taken down by the feds in late 2013, so speculation is running rampant as to what he has been doing during the nearly three years between his apprehension and the announcement of the criminal charge.
