California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s former chief of staff was arrested Wednesday and charged with a number of fraud crimes for allegedly plotting to steal $225,000 and give it to a friend, the Justice Department said. Dana Williamson, 53, was charged in a 23-count federal indictment charging her with conspiracy to commit bank and wire fraud, defrauding the United States, obstructing justice, filing false tax returns and lying to authorities. Williams allegedly participated in a scheme to funnel the money from a dormant political campaign to another person's account for personal use.
