"Brown was charged by federal prosecutors Thursday in D.C. Superior Court with one count of making an “unlawful cash campaign expenditure,” a misdemeanor. The court papers say that Brown knew that one of his relatives, who did not serve as his campaign treasurer, opened a bank account at Industrial Bank, which they called the “side account.” It was supposed to pay for “get-out-the-vote” efforts. In September 2009, about a year after the election, the court papers say, the relative made a cash “campaign expenditure” in excess of $50 to “a person in connection with a single purchase and transaction.”"

Even more bizzare.

They also reported Mendleson is on track to become interim chair.
