Just as the sun rose Thursday, FBI agents raided the home of Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao. There is no official word about the reason for the investigation, but sources tell the ABC7 I-Team it involves a political corruption case against the mayor and some of her supporters.
Yeah, Oakland is a great city that was starting to come up again, but it’s been back sliding over the past eight years.
I will say this though, the last 6 months have felt a little different here. In a good way. Doesn’t quite feel like the Wild West right now.
