Warehouse where anti-gay Houston leader claims to live lacks shower, refrigerator, TV
The warehouse where Houston anti-gay activist Dave Wilson claims to live has no shower, no refrigerator and no TV.
Harris County Attorney Vince Ryan is suing Wilson, alleging he doesn’t really live in the district he was elected to represent in November on the Houston Community College Board of Trustees. Wilson, who led the push to ban domestic partner benefits in Houston in 2001, tricked voters into thinking he was black to get elected to the HCC seat. He also claimed he lived in a large warehouse in District II, instead of at the address listed by his wife outside the district.
The Houston Chronicle’s Lisa Falkenberg reports today that the city’s code enforcement department inspected the warehouse this week and found that it doesn’t meet code requirements as a residence.
Ryan’s office also provided the Chronicle with photos showing the inside of the warehouse doesn’t look like it’s being used as a residence, either. But that didn’t stop Wilson’s two adult children from switching their official residences to the warehouse so they could vote for their father. From Falkenberg:
“What is this all about? They’re just looking for stuff everywhere. Nitpicking everything,” he told me. “You know, I don’t have a four-slice toaster, either. I’ve only got a two-slice toaster. Good grief.”
