Florida Official has Pleaded Guilty To Criminal Charge

Filed under: Law headlines — Tags: — keebdatabase @ 7:39 pm

According to the respected Miami Herald newspaper, Miami Commissioner Angel Gonzalez has entered a plea of guilty to a criminal misdemeanor charge. I am sure he has a pretty good attorney. According to the charge, Gonzalez used his position to get his daughter a job with a construction company that she was not required to even show up for. All in all, Gonzalez may not run for office or apply for any government work until after 2010, according to his plea agreement. He will serve 6 months probation, and will cooperate with prosecutors in any corruption cases in which he may be helpful. Incidentially if you do require an experienced Florida criminal attorney then may I plug the offices of David Garvin because he is indeed one of the better criminal attorney that you can find in the great state of Florida, including Miami, Tampa, Fort lauderdale and also Orlando as well. He can also help with a wide array of different tax related issues if you need that kind of assistance.
For his part, Gonzalez will not be allowed to make statements regarding the case unless permission is granted from prosecutors. He will pay $7,500 in costs incurred by the investigation to the county ethics commission, and the state attorney’s office. In addition to all of this, County Judge Samuel J. Slom told Gonzalez, “Before you do or say anything, you should seek the guidance of your lawyer or attorney. You don’t want to be questioned and then brought back to court.”
