Former Mayor Sylvester Turner could ultimately go down in history as one of the most corrupt mayors in American history. Turner has never been punished for his alleged bid-rigging and other forms of corruption that he's been engaging in, which date back decades, not to mention the suspected orgies he held with Black businessmen back during the 1990s. Many of them were the benefactors of the potentially rigged City of Houston contracts once "SLY" was able to weasel, squirm, slither, and manipulate his way into becoming Mayor of Houston after several failed attempts. And now "SLY" wants to succeed the Honorable Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee when she steps aside? No freaking way!!! Former Mayor Sylvester Turner, according to sources, is very ill and doesn't need to ever hold public office again.
seems like a super legit source
She had a covering over her head at one of the press conferences after the storms a few weeks back. Thought it was weirded than normal for her.
I have heard he prefers men from someone close to him.Al Bula said:

You lost me at Aubrey Taylor. He'll say anything if you pay him enough.
But in all seriousness, the rapid decline in her appearance since the election does look like it could be pancreatic cancer.

I thought that was pretty widely known after the whole airport intern thing.trip said:I have heard he prefers men from someone close to him.Al Bula said:

I am not convinced that situation was what some folks tried to blow it up into. Turner had a habit of telling city departments to find positions to hire his friends. Maybe this one just got more attention because the position was classified as an internship, but there were times when I used to manage HR for a division of Public Works I was told the mayor wanted me to find so-and-so a position and hire them immediately. In one instance, I had to hire someone with a long DV rap sheet who would never have been allowed to work for the city due to the nature of those offenses, not to mention he didn't meet the minimum qualifications for the position.Marvin_Zindler said:I thought that was pretty widely known after the whole airport intern thing.trip said:I have heard he prefers men from someone close to him.Al Bula said:

Is it possible there was some truth to the rumors? Sure, but it's also possible patronage is the more likely answer.
His refusal to admit he knew the boy toy that got the IAH job, despite multiple instances of news footage showing said boy toy getting into or out of the vehicle Sly was riding in, made it seem like something was definitely being swept under the rug.

Username checks out
This was well known after Dolcefino wrecked Sly's mayoral candidacy in the mid-90s.Marvin_Zindler said:I thought that was pretty widely known after the whole airport intern thing.trip said:I have heard he prefers men from someone close to him.Al Bula said:

Is this why SJL ran for mayor? I could never figure out what her true motivation was. If she had won she would have stayed relevant in politics, reduced her travel requirements and been close to the med center for any foreseeable treatment.
Sky had a friend, probably lover, who he helped fake his death back in the '80's in a life insurance scam. Dolcefino was involved uncovering the scam and there was a Dateline episode about it. He has been a con man for 40+ years.

Quote:
Sylvester Turner's client "disappeared" in Galveston Bay and was later found in a Spanish prison…after the insurance paid on the life insurance claim. During Sylvester's first campaign for Houston mayor in 1991, Wayne Dolcefino found him living in a house with Dwight Thomas (since the home Turner owned with his wife was outside the city). Dwight had introduced Sylvester to a man named Sylvester Foster a "male model" and "hairdresser." Turner prepared a will for Foster who then went missing from a boat in Galveston Bay and then worked to probate the will and have Foster declared dead in order to collect the life insurance funds.

I saw that Dateline episode. It was a really weird case.

I think she saw how much Turner was making off the grift and wanted a piece.
And they wanted to keep it in the family. All their inside people like the OBO grift have resigned or been let go already.
How can you not be proud to call a man like that your (former) mayor?!CyAg86 said:

Once upon a time, the FBI and other federal agencies would investigate and bring federal charges for government theft. I think now they are a part of it. After seeing Sly, Rodney Ellis, etc not have the Feds bring charges, one can only assume the local Feds in charge are on the take also.
This must vary between jurisdictions as the FBI and OIG cleaned house in the Beaumont School District a decade ago. Multiple " administrators " plead guilty to federal crimes. Would like to know which government job those convicts are performing today.

Yeah, I'm sure Sly and Ellis have the much coveted title of federal CI so they can rat on small time thugs but maintain they cheeeeeeeeeel-ness and corruption.
Which makes him a top notch (D) candidate.maroon barchetta said:

After 30 years her office is finally going to start providing constituents with the services they deserve?
Let this be a lesson to everyone - you have GOT to pull that mask up over your nose.

Is there a pool going for what street they will rename in her honor?
I think it will be Crosstimbers. New name will be Crownweavetimbers.

If they're willing to get behid Edwards, SJL should drop her re-election bid now and enjoy the time she has left with her family.Ryan the Temp said:

Pancreatic cancer is basically death sentence. She won't be able to fulfill her duties while in treatment because the treatment regiment is extremely intensive and invansive.
She should take this time to be with her family. I've seen how quickly pancreatic cancer attacks and her days are numbered.
Yep. It wouldn't be surprising if she doesn't even make it to November...not that that will stop her constituents from re-electing her.Irish 2.0 said:If they're willing to get behid Edwards, SJL should drop her re-election bid now and enjoy the time she has left with her family.Ryan the Temp said:
