He used the union’s bank account to spend $7,000 on a December 2018 trip to New York City for himself and three friends, prosecutors say.
A corrections officer at the D.C. jail is accused of spending thousands of dollars of union funds on a trip to New York where he caught a Broadway musical and an NBA game.
Andra Parker was chairman of the Department of Corrections Labor Committee from June 2018 to May 2019, according to a complaint unsealed Monday in D.C. federal court. He used the union’s bank account to spend $7,000 on a December 2018 trip to New York City for himself and three friends, prosecutors say, where they saw, watched the Washington Wizards play the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden in Manhattan and racked up a $4,000 bill at the Hilton Garden Inn Times Square.
Prosecutors say Parker also spent union funds on other personal entertainment, including four tickets for a Sept. 25, 2018, Diana Ross concert at Strathmore in Bethesda, Md. Parker was arrested Saturday on one count of wire fraud. As of Monday morning, he did not have an attorney listed in public court records.
