Philadelphia City Treasurer Christian Dunbar was arrested & charged with embezzlement, marriage fraud conspiracy, and faking his way to US citizenship.
#ButNothingsHappening #Philly
Shortly before he was appointed as Philly’s Deputy Treasurer, Dunbar worked for Wells Fargo. While there, he stole $15,000 from 2 bank customers.
Dunbar and his current wife both entered fake marriages with US citizens for immigration benefits and for US citizenship. These marriages go back to 2006 when Dunbar and the US citizens attended Temple University, where they came up with the scheme.
Over a few years, they filed for divorce, however, it appears that the whole time, Dunbar and his current wife, who was not a citizen either, were actually married in their home country.
Not that they knew about this, but who appointed Dunbar?
Looks like it was Philly Mayor Jim Kenn

WTF twitter crashed again as I tried to add my last tweet and f’d up his name. that should be Mayor Jim Kenney!
Anyway, Mayor Kenney fired him and asked his Inspector General to investigate Dunbar’s time at the Philly Treasury.

However, this is also Philly Mayor Kenney....he’s the one who literally danced and celebrated after court ruled that Philly could be a sanctuary city.
