A veteran New York state senator said Saturday that she expects to be arrested Monday in the state's continuing investigation into the use of pork-barrel grants by legislators.
Sen. Shirley Huntley, a Queens Democrat, didn't indicate what the charge against her might be. Huntley founded a nonprofit social service and education group that Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is investigating, and she funded it in part with state grants. Indictments accuse some of the groups' executives of theft. Huntley denies wrongdoing.

In December, four people were indicted on charges they schemed to pocket pork-barrel grants from Huntley, who was close to two of the suspects and who later covered it up. Two officials with the nonprofit, The Parent Workshop Inc., were accused of grand larceny and filing false documents to get $29,950 for work they never did teaching parents how to navigate the New York City school system.
Huntley founded the nonprofit in 2006.

She was just trying to get over.
It’s the “non-profits” that turn out to be the most
profitable.

Probably not good looking, so then it’s a “Witch Hunt”.
They would still vote for her even if she were in prison.
She already should have been arrested.
Guess since she is F, B, D it kind of gives her a sort of protection. And if she has an Asian Girlfriend, she hit the Jackpot and will never see a court, much less a cell UNLESS, of course, ‘they’ really, really, really want her opponent in her seat...then she is ‘toast’.
If a M, W, R was in the same spot, he would have already been in jail.
Now, how did I know, before looking, that ol’ Shirley would be a card-carrying member of the Daughers, Sons, Sistahs and Brothas of Obama?
Who knew Maxine Waters had a twin sister?
Funny you say that.. I did too. Perhaps it’s just typical.
I don’t understand this.
She started a non profit service with state grants? Is that the illegal part?
Others pocketed the money, why is SHE expecting to get arrested?

Suspicion arises that the people pocketing the money for no-show jobs rebated a portion of the proceeds to a certain state Senator Huntley. When they are called before a grand jury and explain their role in return for lenient treatment, Mrs. Huntley can expect to be arrested. Anything else I can clear up for you? See, that's how these things work. She doesn't just give away no show state jobs any more than the Governor of Illinois appoints you a Senator for nuttin. Get it?

Wow. Didn’t realize they were no-show jobs,they should also investigate the Governor.
Receiving remuneration in return for an official favor, even a recommendation, is a crime.
How do those racist handcuffs feel, honey?
She could have been one of Obozo's aunts from Kenya!
