ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. —
Court documents show former lawmaker and Albuquerque Public School employee, Sheryl Williams Stapleton, has been indicted by a grand jury.
Documents show Stapleton has been indicted on 28 criminal charges, including money laundering and racketeering.
The former New Mexico House majority leader is accused of using her position as a powerful lawmaker and APS employee to funnel money to her personal and business bank accounts.
She is at the center of a criminal investigation by both state and federal authorities.
Her lawyer Ahmad Assed says if Williams Stapleton made any mistakes, they were not crimes.
