Former Commissioner Boggs' burden gets a little lighter

Today, District Judge Donald Mosley dropped two of the felony charges against former Clark County Commissioner Lynette Boggs.

The Review-Journal reports:

Mosley dropped one count of perjury and one count of filing a false document. He said Boggs didn't intentionally lie when she paid a baby sitter $1,230 and listed the baby sitter as a “special events” campaign expense. “I don't think it’s been shown that there was a willful desire on the part of the defendant to mislead,” he said. Boggs is still facing one count of filing a false document and one count of perjury on allegations that she lived in a house outside her commission district and lied about it.
