Contractor Curlee Discaya was caught lying during the Senate Blue Ribbon Committee hearing when he claimed his wife, Sarah Discaya, missed the session due to illness.
However, Sarah’s letter to the committee revealed she was not sick but had a pre-scheduled work meeting.
Senators expressed anger at Curlee for misleading the committee, with some considering holding him in contempt.
Curlee apologized, citing Sarah’s health history of diabetes and hypertension, but senators remained skeptical.
Both Curlee and Sarah are linked to major flood control projects and alleged kickback schemes involving several House lawmakers.
