JACKSONVILLE, Fla. (AP) ? Former U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown could spend the rest of her life in prison after being found guilty of taking money from a charity that was purported to be giving scholarships to poor students.

The Thursday verdict came after prosecutors outlined a pattern of fraud by Brown, 70, and her top aide that included using hundreds of thousands of dollars from the One Door for Education Foundation for lavish parties, trips and shopping excursions. She was convicted of 18 of the 22 charges against her, including lying on her taxes and on her congressional financial disclosure forms.

"Corrupt public officials undermine the integrity of our government and violate the public's trust, and that is why investigating public corruption remains the FBI's top criminal priority," FBI Jacksonville Division Special Agent in Charge Charles Spencer said in a statement.

    Has this women ever NOT been on the taxpayer;s dime? She gets cradle to grave care from her master, the voting public.
    She's really no better than Mugabe in Africa, selfish and greedy, and stealing from the people that need basic things, like an education.
    I hope she dies in prison.

    Yep. The one to the right is Cheatin' Charlie, and IIRC the one to the left is Jesse Jackson. Lying scum, all of them.

    Although always described as a cowboy, Roswellnative generally acts as a righter of wrongs or bodyguard of some sort, where he excels thanks to his resourcefulness and incredible gun prowesses.

    Note Brown's hat and fur collar in the picture. If Trump's wife or a Republican was wearing either a fur hat and collar or what looks like fur the Democrats would be screaming.
