She ran a charity that collected over $800k for scholarships for underprivaledged poor black kids in her district, and handed out a total of $1,500 in scholarships. She represented inner city Jacksonville for a couple decades and did nothing but take from them.
Corch Meyers and Tim Trebo
Link to the article on her conviction. She claimed her people took advantage of her and that she was the real victim in all of this.

Did she really think she was going to get away with that or just convinced herself she wouldn't serve much time? You have to know you are going to get caught if you just pocket everything from your charity

this is why I don't trust politicians. They are all scum of the fricking earth. Would gladly shake a Canadian's hand over a US politician.

The "culcha" just mindlessly continues to elect morons like this...it's like they want to be held down,lied to and abused ! First, the tribal chieftains which caught and sold them...then the European 'traders/colonials' which purchased them...since then, their OWN "leadership" !

She has the mind of a child, and so do the people who elected her.

In roughly five years, prosecutors say, the charity distributed just two scholarships. Prosecutors alleged — and on Thursday, the jury agreed — that Brown and Simmons pocketed the rest of the funds, using them for lavish events such as a golf tournament and luxury boxes for an NFL game and a Beyonce concert.
"Assistant U.S. Attorneys Tysen Duva and Eric Olshan painted Brown as an egotistical politician who lived beyond her means. Using bank records, checks, letters, emails and hundreds of other documents, prosecutors made the case Brown directed the deposit of $37,000 of One Door cash into her account. They also claimed she was instrumental in planning nine events that cost the sham charity $330,000."
