Katrina Robinson, a Tennessee state senator reportedly stole $600,000 between 2015 to 2019, which was granted to the Healthcare Institute company she directed. She was charged with using federal funds to pay for her wedding and fundan extravagant lifestyle.
The institute received $2.2 million in grants and Robinson used a large portion of the money for personal purchases for herself and her family in violation of the term of the grant.
Robinson allegedly bought her daughter a 2016 Jeep Renegade, invested in a snow cone business run by her children and paid for home renovations with the money, according to federal investigators.
From NEW YORK TIMES:
An investigation into Ms. Robinson began in 2016, when an anonymous complaint to the Health and Human Services Department alleged that she had used $550 of the grant money to buy a Louis Vuitton handbag, according to the affidavit.
Based on bank records, investigators found evidence that Ms. Robinson had given herself a $25,400 performance bonus, paid herself more than her allocated salary and transferred $54,000 to a retirement fund, according to charging documents. The discrepancies amount to $169,134 more in salary than she should have been paid under the grant terms, according to court prosecutors.

Good news this bastard is stealing and was stupid enough to think she was going to get away clean ripping off that amount of money . Hey sugar lips most people are honest , they should arrest your kids also for going along with the scam .
Isn’t this considered a multiple Federal Felony And Conspiracy case?! Is she free on Bail and if so Why was Bail even set, at Any price?! Shouldn’t she be locked up until the trials over. These areheavier charges that Grand Larceny, I mean come on, it’s $2/3M Of Taxpayers Money!!!
Well, of course she did. It’s reparations!!
Who’s crying now BIG SHOT.. You like stealing from people who pay your salary ? Jail is gonna educate you.. Your gonna be taught a valuable lesson, and AMERICANS Love our Laws… Enjoy CONVICTED FELON..
It was YOUR decision to STEAL from US… TIME TIME TIME …
It seems that 90% of the time, it’s a demonrat going to prison. Just saying.
It’s a start!! That swamp is waaaaay bigger & deeper longer reaching than even I expected & BIDEN is the Locknest Monster 👹 of that Swamp!! 47 yrs in “politics,” gimme a break!! Quid pro quo JOE & Hunter have pulled off the impossible as far as the billions from China & Ukraine, sadly they are too busy abusing the elderly & mentally infirm by throwing him in front of the camera every now & then to make a bigger JACKASS out of himself; ALL in the name of POWER & CONTROL!! His wife should be ARRESTED for ELDER ABUSE, it’s disgusting!! What about that female running for mayor, or Congress in Baltimore or somewhere DNC controlled who faked a “kidnapping” & tried to pin it on her opponent? BUSTED, ARRESTED & in big trouble!!! THEY CAN’T STOP — LYING, cheating, STEALING, FAKE racist HOAXES…. at least w/Trump he won’t even take his Presidential Salary & uses his own$$ +what WE give for campaigning..

🇺🇸TRUMP2020 🇺🇸
Dems rarely see jailtime
What’s up with that???
I’m still waiting for a lot of democratic criminals to just get charged.
Ahhhh, more like 95%.
Why is it that the Democrats are So Comfortable with being abject thieves???
Its both sides
Actually, not usually. It can be both – especially career politicians. BUT most do seem to be Democrats.
💯 ALWAYS been that way, DNC Party of KKK stolen LABOR & human beings’ FREEDOM. RNC: fought to FREE EVERYONE… 1st & best example!! Right down to stealing from the WH–even Demon-rat “first ladies” (term used loosely) down to BIG MIKE STOLE SO much, Trump gave him/her 2 options 1. Bring the moving 🚚 back NOW & we’ll call it a “mistake,” or capital police will come with a warrant!! 😠😠😠 “entitled” snowflake snowflakes!!!
So then where’s the proof? Democrats always make accusations and never have any proof. It’s the Democrat way – just look back at LBJ and see he started all this. But, of course you won’t because liberals never back up anything they say – ever.
Black privilege wasn’t enough …cut her fingers off ..both hands ..hang her up by her thumbs .forty lashes with a cat of nine tails ..then hang her publicly…for stealing ….lock her children up for fifty years …drain the swamp of these communist Democrats…
Because they know nothing is going to happen to them.
We The American People are fed up with all this corruption in Government! So many of us struggle just trying to survive and when we see this going on…. Justice is Coming!
She’s black, and she will not be procuted, just wait and see.
I believe Adam Schiff needs to be in jail, anything he hears he tells everyone he can, might as well put it on the front page of the Washington newspaper, wait only after he spins it to his words. He is a piece of 💩
I agree with you and he is a fucking traitor
I’d agree with you if I wasn’t convinced that Schiff’s already pissed away what WOULD’VE paid for his jail term by round filing $32M American taxpayer dollars. Use someone ELSE’S taxpayer dollars to keep his beady-eyed traitor ass in the slammer. If I had any say, he’d get enough chump change to cover 2 choice and very much capable rounds. Load one of those up into its respective chamber, then pipe that video lead into Americas homes via Pay-Per-View to help recoup that $32M.
I’d pay to watch it, as I would for many Obama’s, and still others. I see a virtually endless gold mine for the US gov’t right here.
Here we go again another corrupt Democrat in Tennessee
These people have no bounds corruption at the finest.
Democratic Crooks in AMERICA. They LIE. Cheat and Steal.
Karma is coming…indictment is coming…justice will be served to all you thieves. What happened to Democracy.
Well Democrats destroyed it. They are Socialists.
Anti-America BUT profit off us taxpayers. Our Money, Money, Money and corruption. You all are disgraceful and disgusting.
We need these people out of politics all they want is to get rich and Screw you and me. God doesn’t like Ugly.
GOD BLESS AMERICA and
GOD BLESS TRUMP 2020 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
JUSTICE FOR ALL…ONLY IN AMERICA 😷😷😷
Imagine how much Trump kids could probably do life. …no one has ever ripped off as much as Putin’s side kick…
..
It’s about time they drained the 😈 Democrats and Lock them up!
Well now. Since shes going to prison, I have to wonder how valid those wedding vows are. Proof that all the money in the world cant buy love. The irony is it took that money to prove it.
Has anyone else noticed that almost all of these politicians stealing are mostly Democrats? These Black politicians are constantly stealing from the people they are suppose to represent. They have no morals, values, honor, or integrity and yet the Black voters continually vote them back into office. It’s sickening.
Unfortunately, it’s the entitlement attitude these individuals were raised with that makes them embezzle federal funds SO BLATANTLY. Many of these individuals were raised on federal monies, as were THEIR parents. They’ve grown up watching government monies appear in their mailboxes on a monthly basis, “given” to their families, there for the taking with no accountability. They never even tried to create the appearance that said money was in any way “owed” them or earned. In little or no time it becomes THEIR money, completely separated from the fact that it is actually someone else’s money. It is GOVERNMENT money and they know not from whence it came. For the ones given jobs of power whereby they are responsible for a portion of this GOVERNMENT money, they still see it as THEIR money. They have no respect for the hardworking men & women who have been overtaxed for years in
order to keep that government money flowing. Many have NO CONCEPT of this, therefore; no twinge of conscience when they help themselves to it. They continue to think of it as THEIR money, there for the taking with no accountability. It pleases me GREATLY when I see them arrested. It is THEN that they FINALLY, for the FIRST TIME, receive their much needed lessons in civics while assisting their defense attorney with their case. Perhaps those Civic lessons should be mandated as a condition of receiving federal dollars in the form of welfare, cash aid, food stamps, healthcare, tuition, etc.
What? A Democrat stealing from the tax payers? You can knock me over with a feather. Theft is part of their DNA. We need TERM LIMITS for all the Congress Critters!
She’s a graduate of the Hillary-Haiti School of Embezzling … only, she got busted, which brings down her gpa.
Why in the world would ANYONE be surprised, it’s just another typical demoncrat doing their typical demoncrat thing: lying, stealing, acting like they are better than others. But Thank God there’s a day of reckoning coming and there will be HOLY JUSTICE!!!!! PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!
Absolutely correct and this is a typical WHORITICIAN in the making, there is no doubt that she would have been the next big city politician Whoritician sellout when she got to the big league federal level in Washington DC , another Elijah Cummings in the making and the citizens of Memphis Tennessee would have to pay for her corruption and incompetence. and the moral of the story is never give the reins of power to a hoodrat they just ain’t ready for it
She’s just another crooked Democrat.
Just another low IQ democrat oblivious to reality this bitch needs to repay every cent and spend some well earned jail time too.
Good im glad someone is doing there job. Now, what about the loud mouths that are in everyone’s face like omar, aoc, biden and the rest of the corrupt dems that have either been caught or admitted to fraud and stealing campaign funds. You get the ones nobody knows and the very known ones are walking free. Hillary is connected to how many murders. Yet she walks, biden admits his black mail and they are allowing the old touchy feely run for president. Dont do us Americans any favors and only charging the no name politicians
Every seat is up in Nov election. WE THE PEOPLE can remove every single career politician. There can be a real change if Americans stand together
This THEIF should never be allowed to run for politics again…Drain the SWAMP one by one!!!
To charge this woman with any crime any politician who has not taken anything that did not belong to them or vote on something they didn’t benifit from cast the first stone, but seriously she needs to go to prison. But seriously every politician should have to go through a vigirous audit by an independant entity. Am i suggesting that there be a fourth level of government to oversee all three executive legislative and judicial branches is that what this has come to these self serving ego maniacs have practically run our beautiful country into the ground. We the people are that fourth level of gov and need to stand up and hold these idiots accountable no one should be held above the law. What some of these crooks have done unjust wars conflict of interest of the worst kind who else is going to look out for us. Our country cannot continue on its present course it cannot be sustained without a major crash like we’ve ever seen wake up my fellow americans get off that couch of conformaty and fight we are at the point of tyranny i for one cannot and will not live under the filthy hand of tyranny
Nothing to see here. Just Democrats being Democrats.
Another one, oh those liberals. Lying isn’t enough, gotta steal too.
Why wouldn’t she think she would get away with it? Look what hillary, Pelosi, Shumer, Shiff and others have gotten away with.
I wanna know who in hell keeps puttin these fools in office/strike that I meant in power!
So what is the penalty for this gross behavior ? more than likely she felt the penaly was worth it.its very sad that her talent went down the toilet
along with the people that trusted in her abilities to represent them .her
repect and honour for her and not to mention her parents and family members !WOW Lady you pooped on all the people that were proud of you.shame on you democrat and replublicans too if u do this also.

Oh, boy! Another DemocRat maggot scumbag thief and liar!!😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡 These ROACHES are being made to be FLUSHED out of their TOILET HOLES, America! It seems like these deceased infested goons have been calling the shots for so long until Trump came and CRUSHED them! Now he will do it again!

We have had enough. They continuously RIP OFF AMERICA! VOTE TRUMP! 2020🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
She’s a Democrat. The DNC will circle the wagons and pin a medal on her. Her brain dead constituents will keep voting her back into office until doomsday.
Anyone steeling from the taxpayers
Should be tried in a military tribunal
So their crooked ass judge’s prosecuters can’t manipulate the outcome. Just seems like too many Just get a slap on the wrist. They work for we the people. Time for accountability.
You mean that democrats have been lying to us?…….HMMM….who da thunk……Steeling from us…..HMM I cant believe this is the first Ive heard of this……While President Trump is chaufering piece in the middle east I wonder what the democrats are doing?…..Hmmm…..Burning down their cities…..Oh I almost forgot….TRUMP-2020 The choice has never been more clear
Does it say somewhere in the democrat party that when becoming an elected democrat one can break all ten commandments and get away with it. Those days are now over – there is a new sheriff in town and they will all have to pay the Barr tab. They never learn it seems as we watch one democrat after another take a fall. Sad really.
Enjoy federal prison Katrina! You earned it! Another corrupt democrat bites the dust.
Reality check here? Putin really wanted Hillary to win. Hillary and her gang of thieves made millions from her foundation selling America’s uranium reserves to Putin. Only one example from Clinton cash. Now China wants Biden to win. Hint?
