Investigations by federal prosecutors have uncovered a tangent in the case against one-time Councilman Brian Davis.
Davis is facing charges for diverting taxpayer funds for his personal use. Investigators have learned that the Lincoln Navigator that Davis drove for years was provided by to him by businessman Charles Barone. The vehicle was a benefit rewarding Davis for steering a lucrative contract Barone's way.
The News reports a judge has ruled that this evidence will not be entered into the case prosecutors are developing.
