Old Dwaine seems to be on the crooked side.

He’s a perp. From your linked story:

“Caraway declined multiple requests for comment for this story – a considerable contrast from two weeks ago, when he talked to NBC 5 Investigates about his dealings with Swartwood, saying he would never “run” from questions.

“I’m a welcoming voice,” he said at the time, adding, “The only thing you can do is tell the truth. Tell the truth (and) you have no fear.”

But when NBC 5 Investigates caught up with Caraway earlier this week at City Hall, he walked away, wagging his finger and declaring: “My mother told me not to talk to you anymore.””

Not only looks to be corrupt but has a tendency to go ballistic.

Dallas residents should invalidate the turkeys mayor position.

Two Call for Mayor Pro Tem Dwaine Caraway to Resign
Financial disclosure reports show Caraway, while on the Dallas City Council, worked for Swartwood’s company as a “consultant,” and was paid at least $50,000 during a two-year period to help find real estate for the company to buy in south Dallas.

In his last interview with NBC 5 Investigates, Caraway acknowledged working for Swartwood’s company, and added that the company, separately, loaned his family $20,000.

As part of the ongoing investigation at Dallas County Schools, Swartwood in December pleaded guilty to a federal charge of money laundering, admitting he funneled bribes and kickbacks to a top DCS official.

Those bribes, according to the government, came from a company operated by Leonard, prompting the FBI to serve search warrants at his home and at his business.

Leonard, who has not been charged with a crime, has told NBC 5 Investigates he is not to blame for the problems – and for the loss of millions of taxpayer dollars – in failed business deals in which his company, Force Multiplier Solutions, equipped millions of dollars in surveillance cameras on DCS school buses.

Looks like Dwaine is getting lots of camera time on several fronts.

Perhaps, the school fiasco will be a serious stumbling stone.
