ROCHESTER, N.Y. (WROC) — Rochester Mayor Lovely Warren has been indicted by a grand jury for campaign finance violations, Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley announced Friday.

The grand jury’s indictment follows a years long investigation into the mayor’s 2017 re-election campaign. The district attorney said the mayor is facing two class E felonies, including scheme to defraud in the first degree, and violation of election law 14-126(6).

The district attorney said a conviction of a non-violent class E felony could result in a variety of sentences. She said a maximum sentence would be one to four years in state prison, but there could also be probation, split sentences, or restitution in this case.

Doorley said Mayor Warren, along with two others — Albert Jones Jr. and Rosiland Brooks-Harris — are scheduled to be arraigned Monday in front of a Cayuga County Court Judge. Jones Jr. and Brooks-Harris face the came charges as Warren. Brooks-Harris is currently the City of Rochester Finance Director.

“This is an indictment, not a conviction — these are simply allegations of violations of the law,” Doorley said.

All she's going to get is a little slap om the wrist. Crime pays. Until they make the punishment so severe that people realize it's not worth the risk, people will continue to commit these types of crimes...

Lovely Warren threw the cops under the bus when the Daniel Prude video became a narrative for the leftist media.

They will probably enjoy bringing her into court.

I assume she’s a Democrat since the first sentence doesn’t say she’s a Republican. In fact, I didn’t see it anywhere in the article.

When the media doesn't mention the party affiliation you know it's a Democrat.

Wait for it. Some know-it-all will FReepsplain that local office holders in that state don’t campaign for office according to party affiliation.

Jail, doubtful but (Chris Collins-R got a year), she'll lose her law license upon conviction of a felony so the plea agreement will try and reduce the felony charge. She can join Leticia Astacio in the disbarred lawyer's guild if she loses at trial.

Warren is a democrat. Dooley is a Republican.

A former mayor of Baltimore is in the slammer right now for the same thing.

“A black female Democrat...never going to jail.”

Well don’t be so sure. They put that dame from Baltimore in jail. Of if she’s not actually incarcerated that’s because of Covid. Too lazy to check, but she was sentenced to serve time. Possibly two of them actually.

Advice to citizens: If your elected officials keep getting convicted of crimes, perhaps your voting choices need reconsideration!

BLMesque supporters have been “peacefully protesting” (TM) outside Sandra Doorley’s house, the county DA by banging drums, etc.

I believe DA Doorley is a Demonrat as well.

She was but switched to the GOP in 2015. In the last election, she beat one of Soros’s candidates. Soros dumped about $800K in the race to beat Doorley with a SJW named Shani Mitchell.
