Fattah Found Guilty of Corruption

Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-PA) was convicted in a federal racketeering case likely to send him to prison, the Philadelphia Inquirer reports.

“The verdict – announced by a jury of four men and eight women – comes after a four-week trial in which prosecutors alleged that Fattah took bribes and repeatedly stole charitable donations, campaign contributions and federal grant money under his control.”
