It turns out Diane Harkey IS guilty after all!

“Assemblywoman Diane Harkey’s blossoming political career appears to have been funded in part by earnings from her husband’s embattled real-estate lending business, which is being sued for fraud and is being investigated by the Securities and Exchange Commission,” according to the O.C. Register.

But wait, there’s more…

Disclosures filed by U.S. Rep. John Campbell, R-Newport Beach and former presidential hopeful Mitt Romney list Harkey as working for Point Center Financial as, variously, a broker or mortgage banker.

In addition she signed a 1990 “certificate of amendment” filed with the California secretary of state’s office changed the name of the Harkey business from All Loan Services, Inc., to Point Center Financial, Inc. It is signed by Dan Harkey – listed as president – and Diane Harkey – listed as secretary.

Kudos to the Register’s Martin Wisckol for digging up all this dirt on Harkey!

Shouldn’t Harkey resign already?
