Show Notes
Orange County anticipates recovering $3.7 million stolen from pandemic relief funds by former Supervisor Andrew Do. Do, imprisoned for bribery, diverted $10 million meant for his district, much to charities linked to his daughter. Federal authorities seized assets, potentially returning up to $8.8 million. The funds were intended for feeding elderly and disabled residents. Dos successor, Janet Nguyen, argues the money should return to her district, while other supervisors advocate for a board vote. Budget pressures and shifting district boundaries complicate the decision.
