John Wiley Price Associates Enter Guilty Pleas, Agree to Testify
Dallas County Commissioner John Wiley Price (Associated Press/NBC 5 Dallas-Fort Worth)
(Dallas Morning News) – Two associates of John Wiley Price pleaded guilty on Wednesday to playing a role in his alleged bribery conspiracy and are expected to testify against the county commissioner during his trial currently scheduled for January.
Karen Manning, an African art gallery owner, has the clearest insight into one of Price’s alleged schemes to hide his illicit profits and could provide the most damaging testimony, according to court documents associated with her plea deal.
Manning, 49, of Dallas, pleaded guilty to one count of subscribing to a false and fraudulent U.S. individual income tax return.
Christian Campbell, a former computer consultant for a Dallas County contractor, also pleaded guilty on Wednesday in federal court in which he admitted to helping funnel bribes to Price along with Price’s political consultant, Kathy Nealy, 62.

Oakland Post Endorses Barbara Lee
Barbara Lee will be able to unify the city around Oakland’s critical budget and financial issues, since she will walk into the mayor’s office with the support of a super majority of seven city council members — enabling her to achieve much-needed consensus on moving Oakland into a successful future.
As we end the celebration of Women’s History Month in Oakland, we endorse Barbara Lee, a woman of demonstrated historical significance. In our opinion, she has the best chance of uniting the city and achieving our needs for affordable housing, public safety, and fiscal accountability.
As a former small business owner, Barbara Lee understands how to apply tools needed to revitalize Oakland’s downtown, uptown, and neighborhood businesses.
Barbara Lee will be able to unify the city around Oakland’s critical budget and financial issues, since she will walk into the mayor’s office with the support of a super majority of seven city council members — enabling her to achieve much-needed consensus on moving Oakland into a successful future.
It is notable that many of those who fought politically on both sides of the recent recall election battles have now laid down their weapons and become brothers and sisters in support of Barbara Lee. The Oakland Post is pleased to join them.
