Video: CAUGHT ON HIDDEN CAMERA: LA Housing Department Financial Officer Admits Witnessing Multiple Instances of Fraud Up To “$10–$20 Million” & “Going To People’s Pockets,” Homeless Developers Committing Forms Of Embezzlement, With Superiors Looking The Other Way To Help Mayor Karen Bass Maintain “Re-Election Funds.”
“I have a couple of developers doing really sketchy stuff. My project was with a developer called CRCD — Marcella Gardens. We [LA City] can’t figure out where all the money is going… it’s going to people’s pockets.”
“If they [LA Housing Department] were to call out the people [Developers] contacting Karen Bass’s office, she might not get enough money for re-election — or for what she needs done.”
“For whatever reason, LAHSA gets allocated a ton of money, but they [LAHSA] don’t really have a whole lot to show for it.”
Donald Byers, a Finance Development Officer from the Los Angeles housing programs, admits on hidden camera that millions of taxpayer money disappear inside the city’s low-income housing system. Byers told our undercover journalist he flagged the fraud internally but was ignored.
“I’ve reported it… nothing happens.”
Accountability is avoided. Despite years-long delays on projects, funding continues to flow even when, by his own admission, officials are failing. Meanwhile, as billions are poured into homelessness programs, the money is “going to people’s pockets.”
Despite years-long project delays, funding continues to flow even as, by his own admission, oversight appears to be failing. After raising red flags, Byers says nothing changed and now he claims, “At this point, I’m just covering myself.”
Our team reached out to Byers for comment and he threatened to contact lawyers in order to stop our publication. We also reached out to @LAHD_, @CRCD_SouthLA, & @MayorOfLA for comment. Mayor Karen Bass replied with, “this is total BS.”
Thank you, @Savsays for hosting this report.

James Rosen @JamesRosenTV - He steered past the profanity! Congratulations on some well-earned recognition. I’ve loved your X feed for years. All men in their fifties, in every age, believe the era of their youth was better. But in this case, that’s objectively and demonstratively true because it was the last time when computers, data, and electronics didn’t rule every minute of our lives. Time moved differently. This video captures it:

Plus Batman looked like he should back then, thanks to Neal Adams.

James Woods @RealJamesWoods - Gallegos is already dead politically. He should just lie down, stop talking, and be happy he’s not going to prison with his fellow slimeball, Swalwell.

This dude is crashing out...suspicious
Q: You've gone on trips, on vacations, with Eric Swalwell. You've never even witnessed him engaging in an affair?
GALLEGO: No...
Q: How do you explain some of the photos that went online? I know you addressed one, but there is another one that shows both of you without shirts. I mean, how do you address some of those compromising photos.
GALLEGO: We were on a beach.
