KPRC 2 Investigates: The third time proved not to be the charm for former Director of City Council Relations for the City of Houston William-Paul Thomas.
The third time proved not to be the charm for former Director of City Council Relations for the City of Houston William-Paul Thomas.– The third time proved not to be the charm for former Director of City Council Relations for the City of Houston William-Paul Thomas.
The reason for this latest delay, according to federal records, comes at the request of Thomas as both legal teams told the court they “require additional time to discuss the details related to defendant’s presentence investigation.” Thomas was convicted of conspiracy tied to cash bribes in exchange for changing a bar’s classification to a restaurant during the pandemic.
In Feb. 2020, KPRC 2 Investigates exposed Thomas as one of two city directors who received and had conversations about a $500,000 offer made to the Mayor’s office for assistance in closing a private land deal.
