Philadelphia DA puts house, with gifted roof, up for sale

PHILADELPHIA » Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams has put his house up for sale as he awaits trial on federal bribery charges that he illegally accepted gifts — including the $45,000 roof on the house in question. Philly.com reports Thursday that Williams’ wants $450,000 for the four-bedroom house.

Williams’ law license was suspended by the state Supreme Court earlier this month, and the city’s Ethics Board fined his political action fund another $2,000 for allegedly failing to report nearly $12,000 in spending on last year’s campaign finance report.
