Texas Rangers opened a new tampering investigation into far-left Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo\u2019s $11 million no-bid \u2018vaccine outreach\u2019 contract.<\/p>\n

Hidalgo\u2019s office is embroiled in a bid-rigging scandal.<\/p>\n

Lina Hidalgo\u2019s top three staffers were indicted <\/a>in April 2022 after prosecutors expanded the investigation into an $11 million \u2018vaccine outreach contract\u2019 awarded to one of the judge\u2019s political cronies.<\/p>\n

While Hidalgo was threatening to jail and fine people for violating her Covid rules, she was secretly trying to award one of her political cronies, Felicity Pereyra, who founded Elevate Strategies, an $11 million \u2018vaccine outreach\u2019 contract.<\/p>\n

Hidalgo ultimately panicked and canceled the $11 million vaccine contract after questions were raised that it was with a one-person firm with no experience.<\/p>\n

Hidalgo\u2019s Chief of Staff Alex Triantaphyllis and Policy Director Wallis Nader along with co-defendant Aaron Dunn were charged with misuse of official information and tampering with government documents in connection with the canceled vaccine outreach contract.<\/p>\n

In August Fox 26 Houston reported<\/a> that federal authorities have also initiated their own inquiry into Hidalgo\u2019s bid-rigging.<\/p>\n

According to Click2Houston, Texas Rangers, the same agency that initially conducted a raid of Hidalgo\u2019s office, opened a new public corruption investigation after Hidalgo \u201cconcealed\u201d records subpoenaed in a grand jury\u2019s probe of the judge\u2019s $11 million no-bid contract.<\/p>\n

The search warrants were unsealed on Thursday according to the outlet.<\/p>\n

The outlet reported that one of the Texas Rangers wrote in the search warrant that \u201cit was discovered that numerous documents and communications that were ordered to be produced by Grand Jury subpoena had been concealed and made unavailable during the earlier Grand Jury proceedings.\u201d<\/p>\n

Excerpt from Click2Houston<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Texas Rangers have opened a new public corruption investigation after Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo\u2019s office \u201cconcealed\u201d records subpoenaed in a Grand Jury\u2019s review of how a multi-million dollar county contract was awarded, according to search warrants unsealed Thursday.<\/p>\n

The \u201cconcealed evidence\u201d included the following:<\/p>\n

Harris County Judge\u2019s office employees used their personal phones to communicate about the Targeted Community Vaccine Outreach project with the owner of Elevate Strategies; and,<\/span><\/div>\n
Draft documents showing Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo personally edited the scope of the Targeted Vaccine Outreach project and mentioned the owner of Elevate Strategies LLC in her editing one day before the scope of work was shared with the owner of Elevate Strategies LLC and more than two weeks before the project was publically announced; and<\/span><\/div>\n
WhatsApp and SMS messages showing Harris County Judge Lina Hidalgo and her staff believed that the majority of the Harris County Commissioners Court were going to vote against funding the Targeted Community Vaccine Outreach project and used the County Judge\u2019s Emergency Authorization powers to bypass the voting process and award $10,973,00 to Elevate; and<\/span><\/div>\n
WhatsApp messages had been deleted after the initiation of the Grand Jury investigation.<\/span><\/div>\n

\u201cGiven the four corners of the affidavit and the warrant, it would appear to be a reasonable deduction that Judge Hidalgo\u2019s DNA is now in play in this investigation,\u201d Wice said.<\/p>\n

In August Lina Hidalgo announced<\/a> she will be taking a leave of absence to seek treatment for clinical depression.<\/p>\n

\u201cBased on my doctor\u2019s recommendation, I checked myself into an out-of-state facility to receive inpatient treatment in late July,\u201d the corrupt Democrat said in a statement.<\/p>\n

She continued, \u201cIt is important for me personally and professionally to confront this issue swiftly, so I will be taking temporary leave from the office while I am receiving treatment.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hidalgo resumed her normal schedule in October.<\/p>\n
