FOX: A New York Democratic assemblywoman was indicted Tuesday for allegedly defrauding government agencies out of tens of thousands of dollars, including the agency in charge of Hurricane Sandy relief.
The Department of Justice announced that Pamela Harris, a New York state assemblywoman, was charged with wire fraud, making false statements, bankruptcy fraud, witness tampering and obstructing justice. 
The indictment also claims that when Harris learned that law enforcement was investigating her in 2017, she pushed witnesses to lie for her to FBI agents conducting the investigation.
“She conducted her schemes victimizing the federal and New York City governments, and then obstructed a federal investigation into her crimes while a sitting New York State Assemblywoman,” U.S. Attorney Richard Donoghue said.
Harris, 57, is accused of defrauding the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) — the agency tasked with helping New York and New Jersey rebuild after Hurricane Sandy in 2012 — of almost $25,000.
According to the indictment, she falsely claimed that her house had been so badly damaged she was forced to relocate. To back this up, she submitted fake lease agreements and rent payments for a separate residence in Staten Island. read more
Looks like a transgender
She done it for the l’il chillens!
Is the FBI attempting to develop some sort of respectable law-enforcement bona fides, now?
Can they show “intent?”
izlamo delenda est …
I dindo nuffin.
She represents Brooklyn but lives on Staten Island. Just like Mad Maxine and Shelia Jackson Lee. Whale Oil Beef Hooked!

Oops.
Crime doesn’t pay and neither do criminals. We do.
just 25K, what an amateur. And spent it on lingerie? At 57 years of age? What the hell for? She’s not as fugly as Sheila Jackson Lee but she’s fugly enough to leave alone.
I have been listening to local media report this story and not once did they give her party affiliation…..I always say when they do not report it that they must be a democrat.
She should move to DC, that way after she does her time in prison, she can restart her political career.

Her new home is prison, and her cell mate weighs 350 lbs. and her name is LaTisha! No mo’ Skittles for Pamela.
$25,000 is chicken feed.
And the FBI determined her guilt within 5 years of investigation??
How long has Bill and Hillary’s criminal enterprises, netting 100’s of $Millions, been going on and still no grand jury, indictments or prosecutions. With all the protected, connected and elite stealing all the money, the little guy doesn’t have a chance for graft and corruption.
Is there a provision that I’m not aware of that requires politicians to be crooked?
This is news?
I’ve been here so long I knew Anonymous was Moe Tom
25,000 barely buys you a weave in da hood. Doubt she’ll see jail time in NY. She’s an oppressed minority and therefore untouchable.
🚨 FRAUD WASTE AND ABUSE 🚨
I read a long time ago the U.S. Government AUTOMATICALLY factors in 40% extra $ of any U.N. overseas project because after fraud waste and abuse, the actual money might make it to the project they are sponsoring.
Same with ALL emergency relief in the U.S. You should be SHOCKED when it’s NOT pilfered-away by one of the many crooked bureaucratic hands it touches.
@Horror, hell, not only that, the pic that accompanied the first place I saw this, they photoshopped it. She totally didn’t look black.
Pamela Harris, wonder if she is related, other than sister opportunists, to Kamila?
Of course, we have to be gracious and thank Teh Won™ for this too. Thanks, obama!
A black NY democrat cheating and stealing? I am shocked! Shocked I say!
If she got people to lie under oath or in testimony to the FBI (or even asked them to) I think that’s suborning perjury and hindering an investigation and that’s a damn sight worse than embezzling 25K. If the FBI and DOJ office attempts to start trying to rebuild it’s reputation here she’s in huge trouble and better start working on the prison tatoos now.
CBS “News” radio NEVER once reported her party affiliation. Of course, that’s how I KNEW she was a Democrat.
