A Maryland lawmaker's future in office is uncertain after she entered a plea deal on Tuesday to settle two separate criminal cases for paying an employee in her law office $800 in state money and using campaign money to pay for wedding expenses.
Delegate Tiffany Alston, D-Prince George's, made the plea agreement on the day she was scheduled for trial in the wedding expenses case. A jury found her guilty in June in the case involving state money. She pleaded no contest to charges relating to the wedding expenses.
It was unclear exactly what the conditions of the plea deal ultimately will mean for Alston's ability to serve in the House of Delegates.
Gee, PG County, what a surprise! Every politician there should be investigated.
