Antonio saves his buddy

Bernard Parks accuses former Villaraigosa campaign consultant, Anthony Thigpenn, of organizing campaign activities for Mark Ridley-Thomas out of an old firehouse in CD8:

We saw it with our own eyes. Twenty or 30 cars parked around the building and people told us they were involved in political campaigns, and that is not appropriate on city-owned property.

Villaraigosa stepped in to save his buddy after Parks served Thigpenn’s non-profit with an eviction notice. The matter may now be headed for a Council vote.
