Xavier Becerra, a prominent Democratic candidate for California governor, is at the center of a growing scandal involving alleged embezzlement from his predecessor as state attorney general. According to recent statements from Becerra's defense attorney, McGregor Scott, the embattled politician denies any involvement in a scheme to skim thousands of dollars from his former office. The claims have sparked intense scrutiny and raised questions about Becerra's leadership and integrity as he campaigns for the top spot in California. As the investigation unfolds, voters are left wondering whether Becerra's denials will be enough to salvage his gubernatorial bid.
McGregor Scott, Williamson's defense attorney, said she didn't hatch the plan to skim thousands from ex-attorney general and Democratic frontrunner for governor Xavier Becerra.
