Harper-Brown attempted to deflect attention away from the bribery charges by posting a four and half minute long video response instead of responding to repeated questions from the press. While her video rant attacks the media, disparages her opponent and rails against unnamed enemies in Washington, it fails to specifically address the serious charges against her – saying only that there is not a “lick of proof” that she had done anything wrong.
Any reasonable person, regardless of their political leanings, will find the evidence against Linda Harper-Brown compelling. Her patronizing and insincere video response is manipulative and insulting to voters.
