Santa Clara Councilmember Anthony Becker indicted for leaking grand jury report
A criminal grand jury has indicted Santa Clara Councilmember Anthony Becker for allegedly lying to a Santa Clara County civil grand jury about leaking a confidential civil grand jury report last year that criticized Becker and four other councilmembers’ relationship with the San Francisco 49ers.
“Councilmember Becker violated the public’s trust,” Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen said in a statement. “That an elected official would commit perjury and lie under oath before the grand jury strikes at the very heart of our justice system and requires accountability.” According to the state’s penal code, the draft report is considered confidential and the city is barred from releasing it before the final report is public.
