Redflex scandal in US worsens

AN email allegedly written by the former boss of ASX-listed Redflex's US operations reflects her surprise at a $US30,000 bribe request.

AUSTRALIAN red light camera company Redflex has been rocked by more US legal troubles, with its former chief executive of North American operations pleading guilty to bribery charges in Ohio.

KAREN Finley was already facing 16 counts, including mail fraud, bribery and conspiracy to commit bribery, for a separate $US2 million ($A2.56 million) bribery scandal involving a Chicago official.
