A New York Democratic assemblywoman was indicted Tuesday for allegedly defrauding government agencies out of tens of thousands of dollars, including the agency in charge of Hurricane Sandy relief.

The Department of Justice announced that 'Pamela Harris',57, a New York state assemblywoman, was charged with wire fraud, making false statements, bankruptcy fraud, witness tampering and obstructing justice.

The indictment also claims that when Harris learned that law enforcement was investigating her in 2017, she pushed witnesses to lie for her to FBI agents conducting the investigation.

“She conducted her schemes victimizing the federal and New York City governments, and then obstructed a federal investigation into her crimes while a sitting New York State Assemblywoman,” U.S. Attorney Richard Donoghue said.

I want any criminal politician to get hard time. Sadly though, they usually get slapped on the wrist AND depending on their district can run again and get elected. Both white and black.

Its funny, if you remove her name and insert Hillary the charges fit perfectly for the Clinton foundation. However it’s typical DOJ puffs its chest out to low is State critters but will never possess the intestinal fortitude to nail a federal Government employee current or former.

Chicken little DOJ

Thanks for saving me posting the pic! I just wonder, what with the substantial number of black politicians going to jail for corruption, do they have sufficient “crooks in training” to fill this gap?

“she pushed witnesses to lie for her to FBI agents conducting the investigation.”

So there are some other Black crooks who are going to be going to jail for lying to the FBI! We should have the names so we can follow along.

“Former officer at Riker’s Island before this....she’s going to jail herself now..”

Well isn’t that a b!tch! I just imagine that the Riker’s population will have a “welcome” party for her. She’d better take a king-size tube of KY jelly with her!

The assemblywoman spent $10,000 of stolen funds on vacation getaways–covering airline and cruise tickets for the politician and her husband–according to the 21-page federal indictment. She further used other funds to pay her lingerie tab at Victoria’s Secret, New York Daily News reported.

Ewwwwwwwwww!
