Homophobic lawmaker and her family indicted for theft, bribery, money laundering
The Department of Justice (DOJ) has indicted a prominent Puerto Rican lawmaker, her husband, son, and assistant for their alleged participation in a years-long theft, bribery, and kickback scheme.María Milagros Charbonier, better known as “Tata”, is a member of the Puerto Rican House of Representatives whose politics have been described as “extremely religious regressive.” After the Supreme Court recognized same sex marriage in 2015, she led an unsuccessful campaign to keep it illegal in Puerto Rico.
Whenever a so-called “religious freedom” bill is moving through the House, Charbonier is sure to be one of the driving forces.We admit it’s been a while since we read the whole bible, but we’re pretty sure enlisting your family and assistant in.
