CVS trial: Celona set to testify again

John A. Celona, the corrupt former state senator from North Providence, will return to the witness stand at 9 a.m. this morning in the corruption trial of former CVS executives John R. "Jack" Kramer and Carlos Ortiz. One of Kramer’s lawyers, Scott Corrigan, of New York City, will continue his cross examination of the government’s star witness.

Celona, a former paid consultant for CVS, is serving a 2 ½-year federal prison sentence for his corrupt dealings with CVS, Blue Cross & Blue Shield of Rhode Island and Roger Williams Medical Center in Providence.

Read coverage of yesterday's testimony.
