RENO, Nev. (KRNV & MyNews4.com) -- A former Reno assemblywoman is in the hot seat tonight after being accused of misusing more than $100,000 of campaign money.
Ex-Republican Assemblywoman Heidi Gansert is accused of illegally keeping the money after she left office in November of 2010.
The complaint filed on Wednesday by ex-Washoe Democratic Party Chairman, Chris Wicker cites that she gave nearly $74,000 to her political action committee. Under Nevada law, public officers who do not seek re-election are supposed to dispose of unused funds within about two months.
