Between November 2002 and October 2010, principals with McTish, Kunkle & Associates
contributed $161,300.00 to those political candidates exerting the most power and control over
the Turnpike.
The Grand Jury finds a prima facie case that George Hatalowich committed a conflict of
interest by accepting a $4,000.00 travel voucher from Matthew McTish, and use of the MKA
apartment and Pirates tickets from the MKA Office Manager. The Grand Jury further finds a
prima facie case that the work awarded to McTish, Kunkle, & Associates, along with the gift
motivated by a desire to “thank” the Turnpike, and their campaign contributions are indicative of
a larger pattern and practice of bid-rigging and commercial bribery by decision-makers within
the Turnpike and those legislators endeavoring to influence those decisions.
