Compton Representative. What do you expect?

Politico wonders if Rep. Laura Richardson (D-Ca) from Long Beach is under an investigation that appears linked to the resignation of a staffer.

Last fall the House opened an investigation on her use of staff in her campaign. At that time the Wave, a Los Angeles community paper reported that she had the highest turnover of staff in the House. And they refer to the "widely circulated" rumor of her management style when she was on the Long Beach City Council. There were other controversies and highhandedness. The deadbeat congresswoman made the Most Corrupt List two years running.

It's not the first House ethics committee to investigate her. In 2009 they investigated her on on charges revolving around her foreclosed Sacramento home. Richardson was later cleared of any wrongdoing.
