Philadelphia District Attorney Seth Williams’ corruption trial resumed Wednesday morning with prosecutors trying to convince the jury that Williams defrauded his mother’s nursing home.
Testimony during the second day of trial started with Sylvia Randolph, a family friend of Imelda Williams. Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert Zauzmer called her to the stand to ask about a $10,000 check her husband, Luther Randolph, wrote to Seth Williams’ mother for her nursing home care—one that prosecutors claim Williams pocketed for himself, along with $13,000 in his mother’s pension and Social Security benefits.
