Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson led a virtual hearing on racial issues just days after her arrest for a kickback scheme, ignoring calls for resignation.
Despite federal charges, Fernandes Anderson participated in a hearing with councilors who urged her to resign, but no mention was made of her arrest.
The kickback scheme allegedly involved a family member on staff who received a $13,000 bonus from Fernandes Anderson, with a portion returned to her.
Fernandes Anderson entered a not guilty plea in federal court, but reports indicate prosecutors claim she orchestrated a scheme to benefit herself financially.
