Former Chief Of Staff, Gen Andrade Pleads Guilty

Former Campaign Manager and Fall River Chief of Staff for recalled and twice Indicated Fall River Mayor Jasiel Correia II, Gen Andrade, has entered guilty pleas to 6 counts in which she was indicated as part of the second superseding Indictment in 2019. 

 

Andrade was calm for much of the 50 minute hearing that was conducted via Closed Circuit with Federal Judge Douglas Woodlock from the judge's chambers in Boston; she began to cry at the end of the hearing when she had to verbally plea guilty to each of the six charges.

 

Federal Prosecutor Zach Hafer outlined the case the US Government had built versus Andrade.

 

In terms of her alleged kickbacks of salary to Correia, Prosecutors maintained they had bank records of various transactions between Correia and Andrade, involving both her salary and a $10,000 Snow Stipend that she received after a blizzard during the Second Correia Administration.
