Former U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown’s fraud trial is training a harsh light on Jacksonville’s Community Rehabilitation Center and the politician who founded it, City Councilman Reginald Gaffney.

 

During the first hour of Brown’s trial Wednesday, Gaffney and the Northside nonprofit were described by a prosecutor as sources of unreported income for the 12-term congresswoman before the sham organization, One Door for Education, became her cash cow.

I hope this woman gets buried under the jail.

Deliberations start over after alternate juror seated in Corrine Brown trial
Change prompted by complaint raised by another juror in federal trial

http://www.news4jax.com/news/investigations/corrine-brown/third-day-of-deliberations-in-corrine-brown-trial

One juror complained about another juror...

The juror that was dismissed did not make the defense happy.

That sounds like a good thing to me. This woman needs to go to jail for a very long time.

BREAKING: Corrine Brown convicted on 18 of 22 charges

http://jacksonville.com/news/metro/2017-05-11/breaking-corrine-brown-convicted-18-22-charges

Quote
Brown was convicted of 18 of the 22 separate criminal counts a grand jury indicted her for in July. The convictions involve conspiracy, mail fraud, wire fraud, tax crimes and hiding income she should have publicly reported.

She was found not guilty of two counts of mail fraud and one count of wire fraud.

Dante consigned corrupt politicians to the middle of the 8th level, Fraud, of the Inferno. The 9th level, Treachery, is the lowest. Since Brown is corrupt and committed heartless treachery by stealing from charities, she belongs at the border of the 8th and 9th levels, IMO.

VERIFY: Corrine Brown's government pension

http://www.firstcoastnews.com/news/local/verify-corrine-browns-government-pension/439317016

Quote
CLAIM No. 1: Corrine Brown could lose her government pension as a result of her conviction.

Reep pointed to a bill signed into law by then-President George W. Bush, titled The Honest Leadership and Open Government Act of 2007, saying, "Given the eighteen counts, her pension will be exposed and likely revoked, if you will, as a result of the convictions. Keep in mind, that is all subject to the same appellate process as her criminal convictions would be. As go the criminal cases, likely will go her pension."

VERIFIED: If her convictions are upheld, Corrine Brown can forfeit her government pension.

CLAIM No. 2: Corrine Brown would lose the entire pension, even if only some convictions are upheld.

Reep spoke convincingly about this matter, saying "It's probably all or nothing, and I would say if any of the convictions hold, it's going to be all."

VERIFIED: Corrine Brown will likely lose her government pension if any convictions withstand appeal or a new trial.

However, it's worthy of note that Brown is entitled to her pension as long as her case is alive. Also, the pension she accrued during her ten years in the Florida Legislature will not be affected by her convictions.
