L.A. real estate developer accused of 444 violations of campaign fundraising laws
Briefly

The Los Angeles Ethics Commission accused Samuel Leung of 444 campaign finance violations, revealing serious breaches in political contribution laws that undermine transparency.
Records indicate that between 2009 and 2015, Leung reimbursed campaign donors, violated contribution limits, and engaged in a scheme to launder campaign funds.
Despite Leung's earlier guilty plea in 2020 for campaign money laundering, the Ethics Commission's findings show a broader network of violations linked to political donations.
The pattern of donations from individuals lacking awareness of contributions underscores potential manipulation of campaign finance regulations meant to ensure public transparency.
