the perp is in DC for the annual Mardi Gras event vent (LOL). He will be allowed to turn n himself in when he gets back. Yes, if that were you or me we’d be in a DC jail awaiting extradition but that ain’t how it works for politicians

Nah, extradition is an expensive pain in the arse. As long as you’re proactive about it, any defense attorney worth a shite should be able to negotiate a turn in on a non-violent crime within a week or so.

Wonder what Sharon Broomes view is on this.


Kiran confirmed that SWB received a target letter from the FBI as well. There’s still a chance that she and/or one of her senior staffers will be indicted for one or more of the scandals that have hit the news in the past year.

quote:

Sources say the subpoenas were served July 25, 2024, to the office of Mayor-President Sharon Weston Broome, several East Baton Rouge Parish council members, and the East Baton Rouge Parish Attorney’s Office. UWK has also learned that multiple cell phones were seized, though officials have not disclosed whose devices were taken. It remains unclear who within the mayor-president’s office is the specific target of the subpoenas. However, credible sources confirm to UWK that former Mayor-President Broome received a target letter from the FBI, indicating she is under federal investigation. Several people have been questioned as part of the investigation so far.

WBRZ

quote:

BATON ROUGE — District 6 Councilman Cleve Dunn was officially booked into the East Baton Rouge Parish Prison on Saturday following his indictment for bribery and money laundering, according to prison records. On Wednesday, Dunn was indicted on two counts of bribery and money laundering, along with public contract fraud, illegal split commission of commodities and malfeasance in office. He is also being charged with multiple counts of conspiracy connected to a corruption investigation involving CATS. According to documents obtained by the WBRZ Investigative Unit, agents with the Louisiana Department of Justice said Dunn abused his elected position of power to secure a $50,000 contract with CATS. Dunn, mentioned in the indictments of former Capital Area Transit System Chief Administrator Pearlina Thomas and CATS contractor Jay Colar, allegedly introduced Colar to Thomas, used his influence as a council member to issue a contract to Supreme Solutions and profited through kickbacks from the purported owner of that company, Jay Colar. While Colar is listed as the current owner of Supreme Solutions, records indicate Dunn and his wife previously owned the company. Agents, however, allege Colar never had control of the bank account for the company.
In addition, documents obtained by the WBRZ Investigative Unit say the company was paid $50,000, at least $33,000 of which was converted to checks made out to “C.G." Agents have confirmed what WBRZ has reported: “C.G.” is Core Group LLC, a company registered to Dunn.

Why would they? It’s just taxpayer money.



This is fairly standard. Otherwise you get even more bureaucracy than we already have and things are even slower than they already are.

Now obviously, this is one of the downsides of that.

You’ll never catch me running to social media to defend a corrupt white politician. It’s the dumbest of the dumb that defend a criminal just because of their race.

Imagine the difficulty prosecutors face when convening a jury for a criminal trial in East Baton Rouge.

The same community that is always the first to scream they want police accountability has to be willing to support it unilaterally, even if the defendant looks like they do.

+ Metro council member of District 6 Cleve Dunn Jr. flooded his neighbor's house in District 8 and still owes him $57,000

Plays by a different set of rules than the rest. This chit had nothing to do w Racism. Just own it!

His future Mayoral bid may have just taken a big hit ya think!
