"In the early 1980s, Pennsylvania discovered its state workers had overpaid federal taxes due to errors in state withholding. Many accounting firms competed for a multimillion-dollar contract to determine compensation to each employee. In 1986, Dwyer was convicted of receiving a bribe from a California firm trying to gain the contract.

Dwyer was scheduled to be sentenced on those charges on January 23, 1987, the day after his death." There's your daily history lesson.
