* Federal prosecutors have the challenge of proving that a man with all the power and money of Lake County Sheriff John Buncich would stoop to bribery.

His trial is set to begin Monday in U.S. District Court where wire fraud and bribery counts against him are to be tried before a jury. Buncich is alleged to have solicited and accepted more than $30,000 in bribes over seven years from two towing firms removing vehicles from public roads for county police. His defense attorneys, Bryan M. Truitt and Larry W. Rogers maintain he did nothing wrong.
