Preliminary Hearing Set For Judge Tammy Bass-LeSure

A preliminary hearing is scheduled for an Oklahoma County judge who’s charged with fraud, perjury and conspiracy.

Charges were filed last year against District Judge Tammy Bass-LeSure, her husband, Karlos LeSure, and Ravonda Edwards.

The LeSures allegedly took state payments for foster children they adopted — but who allegedly lived with Edwards. Authorities say Edwards is the sister of Judge LeSure’s bailiff.

All deny wrongdoing.

Prosecutors have filed a list of more than 100 witnesses they may call if the case goes to trial. As many as 20 witnesses may testify at the preliminary hearing.

If she's guilty, she should have the book thrown at her because a judicial position is a position of public trsut.
