Minor item from Philadelphia
Movita Johnson-Harrell was the first Muslim woman elected to Pennsylvania's legislature, representing part of Philadelphia.
She's now pleaded guilty to perjury, record tampering, and embezzling over $500,000 in Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security disability funds, as well as donations to a charity she established to allegedly serve the mentally ill and drug addicted poor in her district.
The state's Attorney General described Johnson-Harrell’s actions as “brazen corruption... her theft knew no bounds.” Johnson-Harrell stole funds that personally belonged to the residents of her facilities and used it to purchase fox furs, trips to Mexico, to make payments on a Porsche, pay delinquent utility bills, and tuition for her granddaughter’s private school.
Full story here. And it'll stun you.
