You’re going down in flames, you tax-fattened hyena! watch (#5 in a series)

Breaking news: Angela Spaccia has been found guilty of at least some of the charges against her. This is so breaking, I don’t even have a link yet; just the banner on the LAT homepage. Updates to come. In the meantime…

Edited to add: guilty on 11 out of 13 charges.

After eight days of deliberations, jurors convicted Angela Spaccia of multiple counts of misappropriation of public funds, conflict of interest and secretion of the official record. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on one count of misappropriating public funds and found her not guilty on one charge related to secretion of public records.

Nothing yet on how much time she might be facing, but remember: both she and Robert “Ratso” Rizzo “also are expected to face federal charges of conspiracy to commit tax fraud“. The fun never stops in sunny California.

I expect I will have some more to say about this tomorrow, along with some of today’s other news from the Banana Republicans: “striking a suspect in the head with an impact weapon is considered deadly force and is not acceptable police procedure“, and a bunch (18 to be exact) of folks with the Sheriff’s department have been indicted on federal charges “that deputies beat jail inmates and visitors without justification, unjustly detained people and conspired to obstruct a federal investigation into misconduct at the Men’s Central Jail.”
