Rochester Mayor Indicted in Felony Campaign Finance Fraud
https://www.nationalreview.com/news/rochester-mayor-indicted-in-felony-campaign-finance-fraud/ (https://www.nationalreview.com/news/rochester-mayor-indicted-in-felony-campaign-finance-fraud/)
Rochester, N.Y. mayor Lovely Warren has been indicted on charges she broke campaign finance rules and committed fraud during her 2017 reelection campaign, the Monroe County District Attorney announced Friday.
One charge is for a scheme to defraud in the first degree, while another is an election law offense for illegally coordinating activities and expenditures, the Democrat and Chronicle reported.
The Democrat’s campaign treasurer, Albert Jones Jr., and the treasurer of her political action committee, Rosalind Brooks-Harris, face charges as well, district attorney Sandra Doorley said.
A State Board of Elections probe had previously found that there was “considerable evidence†that Warren, her associates, and a political action committee supporting her campaign had worked to purposely evade campaign donation limits.

Rochester Mayor to step down as part of guilty plea in shocking plea deal
https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2021/10/05/rochester-mayor-to-step-down-as-part-of-guilty-plea-in-shocking-plea-deal-n420332 (https://hotair.com/jazz-shaw/2021/10/05/rochester-mayor-to-step-down-as-part-of-guilty-plea-in-shocking-plea-deal-n420332)
Lovely Warren, the Mayor of Rochester, New York, has been in the hot seat for quite a while now. It all began with her mishandling and blame-shifting after the death of Daniel Prude in police custody. She was simultaneously facing accusations of campaign finance law violations from her last election. Then it was revealed that her husband had been a suspect in an investigation into a major drug trafficking ring. Things came to a head when both she and her husband were arrested on child endangerment and illegal weapons charges after a police raid on the couple’s home found the child left alone in a house with tens of thousands of dollars worth of drugs in it and an unsecured, loaded handgun.
Through it all, Warren continued to protest her innocence in all matters, insisting that she had no idea what her husband had been up to and that the campaign finance questions were all just a “misunderstanding.” Her case was within days of going to trial this week when we learned that the entire affair was being dropped from the court docket following a plea deal. Warren will wind up losing her position as Mayor on December 1st as part of the arrangement, but aside from that, she’s getting off with one of the sweetest deals imaginable.
My emphasis, showing that some animals are more equal than others. An ordinary non-politician would be headed for an extended stay at the GreyBar Hotel.
