Indicted: 4th District Assessor Betty Jefferson

by Gordon Russell and David Hammer - The Times-Picayune

U.S. Attorney Jim Letten announced this afternoon that 4th District Assessor Betty Jefferson, an elder sister of U.S. Rep. William Jefferson, has been indicted on a host of fraud-related charges by a federal grand jury. Also indicted were Jefferson’s daughter, Angela Coleman, and her brother, the previously indicted Mose Jefferson.

The charges are the culmination of a probe into charities run by members of the Jefferson family and their allies. In a rare move, the FBI announced it was investigating the nonprofits after a 2006 Times-Picayune story revealed apparent self-dealing at them.

The newspaper’s report noted that former City Councilwoman and state Rep. Renee Gill Pratt, a protege of the congressman, and former state Rep. Jalila Jefferson-Bullock, one of his five daughters, had steered millions of dollars over the course of a decade or so to three charities associated with the family: Care Unlimited, Orleans Metropolitan Housing and Central City Adult Education.

    Here is part of the corrupt political crowd that gave us the bungled New Orleans evacuation.

    :arrow: Drill,

    How dare you be party to chargin’ this po, innascent, fine fam’ly thats bin oppressed for 400 years at the hands of the white slave massers…She be entitled, freeza or no freeza and she is bein’ railroaded just like O.J. I can feel it in my bones.

    Besides, I’m sure that money was to be used with good intent to buy the Mount Zion Baptist Church a new church bus for the Sunday Missions Board to help out all the poor poverty stricken folk (and buy some colored toothpicks for the Sunday brunch) and an extended Disney Cruise in the Presidential suite for the family for all her misery, of course.

    Especially considering our pale President allowed the hurricane and the Evil Cheney danced with glee while scheming to allow Halliburton dibs on reconstruction of the SuperDome.

    I wouldn’t be the least bit surprised if there wasn’t Halliburton field equipment with a red bow on top in the middle of the 50 yard line as we speak.

    New Orleans was Bush’s fault and we are all racist to convict this poor woman. Have you forgotten this?
