Here is a little something, for everyone to review, that kind of sealed the Mayor's fate. It is the reimbursement document that Deana Sako, who now has immunity, hastefully put together.

It's no wonder that the Attorney General's office, via the grand jury indictment, is getting ready to prosecute the Mayor. What a sloppy job our Mayor and his crew did in trying to cover it all up. All of you can inspect these forms and see for yourself the amount of tampering and deception that is displayed and contained within them. This reimbursement document starts at the beginning of his administration in 2009 and continues through 2015. The Mayor's documents were modified in 2015, as soon as, the reporter Nancy Cook Lauer, put in a freedom of information request to view the Mayor's pCard spending. It took a year for the Mayor's office to produce this document. There are many changes, things that have been written in and scratched out in pencil and ink, inconsistencies, different fonts on the same document, and no detailed explanations of the purchases made. This should give you all an idea of the misuse and abuse they have been eluding to in the press.
Page 30 is really interesting. That is where one of the Mayors executive assistants, who now has immunity, supposedly “erroneously” used the Mayors pCard, to spend over $900. It doesn’t even say what the money was spent on. It looks like the Mayor is reimbursing five different pCard accounts. See people, my suspicions are, that our Mayor is guilty of “panelling” pCards. In other words, the Mayor used other peoples pCards, to pay for his jaunts to avoid going over his pCard spending limit and to hide what he was spending it on. Procurement pCard fraud is like giving your money to the bank. Interest charges are all paid for by the state. Do you like giving your money to the bank? 18% interest with a variable rate, when you use the pCard for cash, which our Mayor did.
It takes a whole village to raise a child and it took the finance director and the executive staff to keep the Mayor's misuse and abuse out of the news. It will take a lot of cooperation to find out the truth just like it took a lot of cooperation to cover it up. For eight years there was no oversight and now we are going to have to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to know what they know.
This is such a scam only a lawyer could have come up with such a plan. And today those officers, who were appointed by the Mayor and confirmed by the county council, who turned a blind eye to his fraud and credit corruption, are getting immunity. I don't know why any of these people got immunity. Is it because they were being threatened with termination if they didn't go along with the Mayor or the managing director, who is really the one who runs things. And where is Wally Lau? A lot of this went down during his stint as managing director. He's not being mentioned in this and I what to know why?
From the bottom to the top we have really made a mess of this county. We have allowed our Mayor ,to forsake the office and his fiduciary responsibilities, for a surfboard or a dinner out on the town.
For every bribe he gave, for every person he wined and dined there was nothing in it for us, folks. It was all just to help our Mayor climb up the political ladder. How much did it cost the people, with interest, to satisfy a man with a hunger for power and an insatiable appetite?
Now its all blowing up in our Mayor's face and he wants to get off on a technicality. It doesn't fly in my world.
Jmo but these are good ones and I hope you will find them interesting.
