Jerry Eversole and the IRS

Harris County Commissioner Jerry Eversole the Harris County king of ethics violations is under the eye of the FBI and according to Rick Casey we should see an indictment or nothing coming real soon:

It has been two years since County Commissioner Jerry Eversole told a Houston Chronicle reporter he expected to be indicted by the feds. Now it appears the indictment will come within the next two weeks.

This FBI investigation and the Texas Ethics Commission violations got me to thinking about all of the free money Eversole received by using his campaign donations for personal items such as antique western chaps and much, much more. The TEC fined him for only 2 years of these expenditures for about $40,000 which he eventually repaid to his campaign. But according my calculations he actually spent over $162,000 on personal items.

That is $162,000 of tax free money. Surely Eversole reported this free money on his tax returns. Anyone under the strong ethical standards of Judge Ed Emmett (gag) would report this free money as all fine patriotic Americans do.

Surely.
