According to the Judicial Watch statement, the complaint filed in April 2009 alleged that Dodd helped Edward Downe Jr. 'obtain a reduced sentence and ultimately a full presidential pardon for tax and securities crimes' from former President Bill Clinton in exchange for a below-market sales price on a property in Ireland co-owned by Downe."
