A retired state parole officer and Chinatown community leader is the latest to face charges in San Francisco’s ongoing public corruption scandal.
Nuru is currently serving seven years in federal prison as part of a probe into San Francisco’s Public Works Department that has resulted in charges against 16 defendants, so far.
Wong was approached by an unnamed intermediary, according to Gruel, who was apparently working on behalf of a woman seeking a public works engineering job. Wong, his attorney said, gave Nuru the money he got from the intermediary on behalf of the job-seeker. Gruel said while the female job-seeker in the case did get hired for the post, the person left the department within weeks.
