Your Wednesday Schadenfreude: GOP GA Gov Candidate Reports To Jail

GOP GA Gov Candidate Who Campaigned In ‘Deportation Bus’ Reports To Jail



A Republican gubernatorial candidate in Georgia who campaigned in a “deportation bus” has turned himself in to county jail after being indicted on charges including insurance fraud.
<snip>

The charges stem from a May incident when Williams reported that his campaign office was burglarized. Williams’ campaign manager said then that $300,000 worth of computers used to mine cryptocurrency were taken.

Williams is accused of lying to investigators and making a false insurance claim.

Williams finished last in the five-man Republican gubernatorial primary in May. His campaign was based on loyalty to President Donald Trump
and a series of publicity stunts, including the controversial “deportation bus.” - TPM
