Nixon 2.0!

Jeri Wright, the 48-year-old daughter of President Barack Obama’s mentor and former pastor Jeremiah Wright, is heading to jail.
Free on bail while awaiting sentencing for money laundering in connection to a government-funded jobs training program, a U.S. District Court Judge found “there was probable cause to believe Wright committed a separate theft while on bail, thereby violating terms of her supervised release.”
The new charges against Wright involve more sketchy bookkeeping. The Chicago Sun-Times reports:
Prosecutors now say Wright was taking part in another scheme — this one involving ghost payrolling — even as she was standing trial. Between Feb. 12, 2014, and May 28, 2014, Wright allegedly got 13 payments totaling $8,192 from a temporary staffing agency “for work she never performed” for a plastics factory in Franklin, Indiana, according to a court filing this month. U.S. Probation Officer Eric W. Fox wrote that Wright “committed theft” by accepting the payments, which allegedly were authorized by a since-fired plant manager who is under investigation for “making fraudulent credit card charges and hiring several” ghost payrollers. Through her attorney, Wright denied the new charges.
Wright faces a March 20 sentencing for her original conviction for making false statements to investigators and before a grand jury, as well as pocketing $11,000 as part of the fraud scheme.
She and Jesse’s kid can exchange fan mail and recipes.
She’s just community organizing her way to the American dream.
Full Presidential pardon coming in Jan. 2017, along with assorted other Obama criminals/cronys.
If you can get away with it....it’s okay mentality.
One suspects (and worries) that you might be correct, my FRiend.

Of course it’s against the FR rules to read the thread before posting, LOL.
Well, that’s shameful. $8900? She can do better than that!

Wright’s got his multi-million dollar estate earned from bashing our wonderful country from the pulpit for years...why should he care?

Not so smart, there.
Some are always looking for a “program” to scam. Some always find one. Here is one.
Show’s how dumb she was too.
She surely could have been appointed to some lucrative DC govt job by Baraq and gone on to loot the Treasury legally.
Look’s like Jeremiah’s “chickens are coming home to roost.”
