District Attorney Seth Williams unlawfully reached into the bank account of his 84-year-old mother, siphoning more than $20,000 promised for her nursing home care, a federal grand jury says. In the indictment of Williams on Tuesday, the grand jury charges Williams with six counts of wire fraud, alleging that he use the money for restaurant tabs, mortgage payments and other personal expenses.

While the indictment says Williams, 50, took money from an unnamed relative, people familiar with the investigation have identified the relative as his mother, Imelda.

Can you get any lower than stealing your mom's retirement money? I don't even think the Clinton's would do this.

If Mom had $10 or $20 million in her account, I have no doubt the Clinton's would do it.

Heck, they would kill off grandma to get the inheritance if the amount was enough to pay the hitman and have some left over.

Seth Williams was ADOPTED as a new born..

Just wondering if the parents are of the WHITE RACE ?

He is about as low as the pond scum can go..and needs to be put away for the rest of his natural life..

Seems media wants to keep this low key, but, wake up folks this is in Pennsylvania and it is a State lead by a Democrat Gov. who is worthless, and it makes the 2018 November election very important..

Clinton wouldn't rob his own mother, lest he be on the hook for her care.

But he'd have no problem robbing your mother.

It happens frequently. People try to drain the account so the old lady can go on Medicaid. They are unaware of the lookback period and get busted.

“I don’t even think the Clinton’s would do this”

Where do you think their government retirement money comes from? Out of what could be your retirement savings in the form of taxes.

I don’t know about his parents, but I do know he’s been playing the race card since his days in college.

A long pattern of taking bribes and stuff was fine and perfectly routine, but by stealing from his own mother he crossed the line and had to be stopped.

Feds: D.A. Rufus Seth Williams Did Favors For Criminals, Stole Money From An Elderly Relative; Took Bribes And Committed Extortion

He was paid $170,000 as the city’s top law enforcement officer; he supervised a huge staff of 300 assistant district attorneys, the feds wrote about Williams. But he couldn’t take enough free gifts. And when it came to taking free gifts, Williams was happy to do favors for the people who gave him money and free gifts.

Even if they were criminals. And even if he was abusing his official position to do favors for them, or their criminal friends.

“In the future always give me at least a week to help a friend,” Seth Williams wrote when Business Owner #1 asked for Seth’s help in lowering a prison sentence that the district attorney’s office had sought for a criminal who was a friend of the business owner’s.
