On the outside, York Park might look fanciful with its elaborate jungle-themed slides. But it’s built where a gasoline station used to be, one with a long history of contamination. @LATACO@papayathemariah@carlaflou

Episode 7: The Cover Up. Huizar’s downfall started with a sexual harassment lawsuit. To pay the costly settlement, he had to rely on a new friend. A friend who just so happened to be a developer with plans to build a 77-story hotel in downtown LA.

These incidents never occur in a vacuum, but when this is the culture at City Hall, it affects governance and policy for all of LA.
@SmokeScreenPod has done great work showing how the actions of LA elected officials have a real-life impact on constituents https://t.co/UKB4VFffC0
Wanted to give folks a content warning for tomorrow’s @SmokeScreenPod . We will be talking about sexual harassment + abuse.
We have to talk about it in order to talk about how this in many ways was the start of the alleged corruption in the RICO indictment.
Having friends in high places can get you far and Huizar was willing to help out his friends. The only catch was, they had to have deep pockets. 💰💰 https://t.co/FBkP6IdUo1
