Lee Brown legacy continues to grow
KHOU-11 reports that another staffer from the Lee Brown Administration is facing serious legal charges:
Another member of the former Houston Mayor Lee Brown's administration is in trouble with the law.
The former head of building services for the city of Houston, Monique McGilbra, has been charged with extortion and depriving the city of Houston with honest services.
She is the second in as many months who worked for Mayor Brown who is now facing charges.
Back in December Oliver Spellman, the former chief of staff for Brown, pleaded guilty in federal court to taking bribes in exchange for city contracts.
Spellman will be sentenced in March.
We'll give KHOU a pass on the instance of nearly incomprehensible prose in this story since they were the first online with it.
Perhaps later, another enterprising news outlet will reach the bumbling former mayor at the Endowed Dumpster for comment.
