Former State Representative Frank Mautino has asserted his Fifth Amendment rights amid continuous questioning of his campaign spending.
He is under investigation for spending nearly half a million dollars in campaign money for personal use at a Spring Valley bank and continuous repairs at a Spring Valley service station.
Mautino’s attorney also wants an extension to a July 1st deadline to amend his campaign reports.
The Web Times reports that the elections board will consider Mautino's latest request at its Monday meeting.
