ATLANTA (AP) — A Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate who campaigned in a “deportation bus” has pleaded not guilty to fraud charges.
Ex-state Sen. Michael Williams was indicted last month in Hall County northeast of Atlanta on charges of insurance fraud and lying to investigators. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports Williams requested a jury trial ahead of an arraignment hearing Wednesday. Attorney A.J. Richman said Williams “looks forward to his day in court.”
The charges stem from a May incident when Williams reported his campaign office was burglarized. Williams’ campaign manager said then that $300,000 worth of computers used to mine cryptocurrency was taken.
Williams finished last in the five-man Republican gubernatorial primary. He campaigned on loyalty to President Donald Trump and publicity stunts, including the “deportation bus,” symbolically targeting people in the country illegally.
“…And Other Criminals On Board.”
It was right there on the bus the whole time.
Deport him up! Deport him up!
Well now, don’t we all?
I’ll bet his mommy says he’s innocent becuz he was raised in a Dog fearing JA-Ja household.
meh
$300,000 worth of computers - stolen?
I will bet that he is looking “forward to his day in court.” I am sure that he is also looking forward to paying his legal fees and serving time in the Georgia state pen.
