E!! The True Conservative Story™

Nevadans may remember when Judge Elizabeth Halverson was found guilty of gross misconduct and removed from the bench by the Nevada Discipline Commission?

You can read the sequel in the Las Vegas Review Journal:  

Halverson’s husband recently tried to beat her to death with a frying pan and has plead out his case to the tune of 3 to 10 years in jail.

Quite a pair, these two.

Here’s a little tip for all you aspiring extortionists:  when attempting to shake down your target, don’t paste your signed demands to his door – and don’t have the document notarized at the local UPS Store.

Send your thanks for this sage advice to former Nevada Democratic Party official and campaign consultant Michael Zahara in care of the Clark County Jail in Las Vegas, NV.  Zahara was arrested this week on charges that he tried to extort $5,250 from his former boss, Nevada Assembly candidate Sanje Sedera. 

Zahara taped a notarized letter to Sedera’s door threatening to tell Sedera’s family, business associates and family members that Sedera, a former resident of Sri Lanka, had committed mortgage and IRS fraud and was involved in “terrorist rebel activity.” 

Sedera, who has been a mortgage broker in Las Vegas since 1996 and who dropped out of the campaign to help with relief efforts in Myanmar, contacted police immediately after finding Zahara’s missive taped to his front door.  Sedera says the claims are baseless.
