From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Diane Gordon is an American politician and a former member of the New York state assemblywoman who represented the East New York section of Brooklyn from 2001 to 2008. She was known as being far more conservative than her Democratic colleagues.

On July 10, 2006, Gordon was indicted by the office of the Brooklyn District Attorney, who filed charges alleging that the assemblywoman offered to help a contractor obtain a $2 million parcel of land from the city if he would build her a house. On April 8, 2008, she was convicted on eight of nine counts, including: Two counts of receiving bribes, two counts of official misconduct and two counts of "receiving awards for official misconduct."[1]
