Grand jury indicts Sen. Leland Yee, 28 others in corruption probe

By Maura Dolan

SAN FRANCISCO — A federal grand jury indicted 29 suspects, including California state Sen. Leland Yee, with a wide range of crimes, including firearms trafficking and public corruption, U.S. Atty. Melinda Haag announced Friday.

Yee, a Democrat who represents parts of San Francisco and San Mateo County, and other suspects were arrested last week on a criminal complaint that outlined the charges behind the grand jury indictments. Yee was indicted on charges of corruption, wire fraud and gun trafficking, the same charges laid out in the complaint.

Yes.  Fornicalia Senator Uncle Leland Yee who said “It is extremely important that individuals in the state of California do not own assault weapons. I mean that is just so crystal clear, there is no debate, no discussion” — has been indicted.

So, Yee was allegedly involved in gunrunning, murder for hire, and the acquisition of rocket launchers.  No problem or hypocrisy there, yes?

In truth no problem.  Another day in Sacramento’s Belly of the Beast, historically run by Demorats.

I already wrote about Uncle Leland here and here.  CLA did a wonderful audio mash-up here.

Yes indeed; Uncle Leland got caught up in lawyers, guns and money — dad, get me out of this!  He was nothing more than an Innocent Bystander and got caught down on his luck.  He’s a desperate man, the shit has hit the fan.

He is also Leland the Headless Thompson Gunner.

The best part?

If convicted, Yee would face more than 100 years in prison and more than $1 million in fines.

But, of course, these are nothing more than my impertinent opinions.
