Democrat Removed From Office After FBI Sting - Look What She Did

A breaking report is rocking the political world as the FBI successfully conducted a sting operation to nail a prominent female Democrat. Many are saying the Bureau deserves a pat on the back, but there’s just one huge problem.

According to the New York Post, Joy Cooper was arrested on Thursday, January 25, 2018. Cooper has served as the Mayor of Hallandale Beach, Florida, since 2005 but ended up in hot water after FBI agents went undercover to expose her as a money-grubbing opportunist. Cooper was taken into custody on Thursday when she surrendered herself at the Broward County Jail.

The Democrat Mayor is being charged with three felonies which include money laundering, official misconduct, and exceeding campaign contribution limits. Cooper is also being charged with the misdemeanor soliciting contributions in a government building, according to CBS Miami.

According to the Broward State Attorney’s Office, Cooper’s arrest comes after a 5-year investigation, which kicked off with an FBI undercover sting operation in 2012. A source familiar with the case says that Cooper allegedly met with undercover agents posing as wealthy land developers who wanted to bring a business project to the city.

It was during those meetings that Cooper allegedly solicited campaign contributions that exceeded legal limits for herself and others, then falsified reports about those contributions. This mayor sounds like she would get along great with Hillary Clinton.

Cooper’s attorney, Larry Davis, alleges she “dindunuffin,” of course. “She never accepted any money or anything that went into her pocket,” Davis told reporters. “She never accepted a campaign contribution for any quid pro quo for any developer, anyone in her 20 years of public life,” he added.
