BOSTON Sen. Dianne Wilkerson, who cuts a glittering, energetic figure around the Massachusetts Statehouse, stood alone and soberly attired in federal court Tuesday after being charged with accepting $23,500 in bribes including $10,000 to fund her write-in campaign next week.
The Democrat was freed on a $50,000 unsecured bond. FBI agents arrested her at her Boston home earlier in the day on charges of attempted extortion as a public official and theft of honest services as a state senator.
An FBI affidavit includes a series of still photographs from video recordings allegedly showing Wilkerson accepting money from undercover agents, in one case stuffing cash under her sweater and inside her bra.

Hey, don’t be a racist. She deserves the money after after a history of oppression by “the man”.
“Is that $25 K in your bra, or are you just glad to see me?”
Sarcasm alert, I guess.

but supporters suggested the senator, who has a long history of campaign finance violations and personal legal problems, was being targeted by law enforcement officials. I hope this isn't her defense! LOL

The people of MA have woken up and will reward this exemplary behaviour by electing her to the US Senate or Congress. This will be a resume enhancer and she has that all important D after her name. She is black, a woman and from a predominantly black district. Wait 2 days for the race card to be played and her to be declared framed and innocent.
Besides the money she got is simply advance payment for reparations as her ancestors were mistreated by your evil white homophobic bigoted great grand parents in the 19th century !

Interesting how you have to get all the way to the end of the article to read that this woman has a long history of illegal activities and being a tax cheat..... proving once again, that the rich and powerful get a slap on the hand for their crimes.
