JUDY WOODRUFF, CNN ANCHOR: Two U.S. businessmen are under indictment for their role in securing the 2002 Winter Olympics for Salt Lake City, Utah. CNN Justice Correspondent Pierre Thomas joins us now with details -- Pierre.</s>PIERRE THOMAS, CNN JUSTICE CORRESPONDENT: Judy, the two men perhaps most responsible for bringing the Winter Olympics to Salt Lake City in 2002 have been indicted. Tom Welch, who's the former president of the Salt Lake City Olympic Bid Committee, and Dave Johnson, who was the vice president of the Olympic bid committee for Salt Lake City both indicted. Allegations of fraud, allegations of racketeering, allegations of conspiracy to basically slip $1 million to international bid committee members in an attempt to bring the games to Salt Lake City. Now we're told in the indictment that they allegedly paid the tuition for family members of international committee members, also gave them spending money. So the allegation is that all of this was under the table.</s>WOODRUFF: Pierre, what about the IOC, the International Olympic Committee, members who received these gifts? What happens to them?</s>THOMAS: Well, that's an open question. Justice Department sources have not said whether they will continue the investigation to pursue the people that received the money. That's a great question in terms of if they received the money, are there allegations that they should be charged? And that's an open question. We're still awaiting the answer to that.</s>WOODRUFF: All right, Pierre Thomas, keep an eye on that. Thank you very much. We appreciate it.
