“We need to ask ourselves, if this is not about politics, why is Tim’s next court date June 21 — the day before Primary Day?” Warren asked. “Now, that’s quite the coincidence. Now, when you figure out those answers to those questions, come find me, because I’ll be working.”
The 43-year-old mayor, who is facing campaign finance fraud charges, also pointed the finger at Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley, who she claimed “made a deal with a convicted criminal to harm me,” because she was “angry at me for supporting her opponent.”
Doorley defended her office’s work on Thursday. “This was an investigation spanning close to seven months, a title three wiretap investigation that was run by my office,” she said at a press conference posted by the outlet.
Troopers pulled over the mayor’s husband Thursday afternoon in connection with the ongoing investigation, officials said
“Operating the vehicle was Timothy Granison. He was in possession of a large quantity of cocaine,” said New York State Police Maj. Barry Chase.
This guy has singlehandedly ruined his wife’s reputation, and very likely her career. Politics or not, the police found very large amounts of cocaine. It is what it is.
Dope dealing, plain and simple.
FYI/WTF, Over...
Blubberty.
She knew he was doing that crap.
This entire episode sounds like a racist witch hunt. White mayors’ spouses get to do all the coke and gun-running and armed robberies they want.
I think we’ve discovered why certain inner city blacks so often find themselves face down on the pavement beneath a police officer’s knee.
It’s a conspiracy!!!
There is zero chance that she didn’t know he was doing this.
There is certainly a sense in which she is correct. It is about politics. When the party in charge is full of corrupt individuals, then those who control the local department of justice get to decide “whose” corruption is worthy of exposure. Those who control the DOJ get to pick the winners.
This reminds me a an Ayn Rand assertion that inherently corrupt politicians will write laws in such a way that EVERYONE is breaking the law. Then they get to choose who gets prosecuted/persecuted and who gets left alone.
Silly me I thought it might’ve been about coke and guns.

Her middle name must be Tiny.
You can take the thug out of the ghetto, but you can’t take the ghetto out of the thug.
The arrest isn’t about politics. At least not if he had that stuff in his possession. Cops will do what they are going to do. And that’s good.
The political part of this starts at the charging, trial, and sentencing.
Amazing... I think if I was doing crack and selling it, I think Mrs. Deplorable would know. Do white wives (and wives who are different races married to Whites) have a Gene that tells them if their husband is doing ILLEGAL activities (like selling illegal drugs)?
