Cheheiry Villalobos Santoyo was caught trying to hide $186 worth of merchandise at an Ulta Beauty store and while she was being taken to jail tried to bribe an officer with "sexual acts and cash in exchange to be let go."

Based on a statement from the Harris County Tax Collector, the three employees were indicted after an investigation revealed they took bribes in exchange for processing fake car transactions.

To hide the scheme, Javier Aguilar and his co-conspirators used alias email accounts to discuss the scheme with code words for the bribes like “shoes,” “medicine,” “invitations,” and “coffee.”

Former Houston Independent School District Board of Education president, Rhonda Skillern-Jones, entered a guilty plea back in Oct. 2021 for conspiracy tied to bribes within the district. Now, she's traveling overseas at her leisure. Experts question if she's not being held accountable.
