Flashpoint for Jan. 11, 2006
Wednesday, Jan. 11, 2006 | 9:18 a.m.
Get out your scorecards, folks. Three politicians and one former pol -- at least -- will have their careers put at risk today as the state Ethics Commission convenes in Las Vegas. Commissioner Lynette Boggs McDonald must persuade the tribunal that she did not use undue influence to try to save her husband's job with Treasurer Brian Krolicki. Ex-Assemblyman Wendell Williams, who could say almost anything and has nothing to lose, is the star witness against Boggs McDonald. Her defense team will pound on Williams' credibility and the commissioner surely hopes that Krolicki and Assemblyman Morse Arberry, who has provided testimony, will sustain collateral damage. Pass the popcorn.
