Kamala Harris has been rocked by a new plagiarism scandal as potentially damning allegations surfaced about testimony she delivered as a U.S. senator.
Harris allegedly lifted text ‘verbatim’ from a former colleague for use in written congressional testimony she gave in 2007, according to an analysis by the Washington Free Beacon.
The latest accusations about Harris come hot on the heels of another scandal over whether she actually worked at McDonald’s in college, as she has claimed.
She was also recently accused of copying ‘word-for-word’ several blocks of text in her book ‘Smart on Crime‘ published in 2009.
The latest plagiarism allegations arise from testimony Harris gave as a senator in support of the John R. Justice Prosecutors and Defenders Incentive Act of 2007.
It was a bill that would help pay student loans for state and federal prosecutors to keep talented lawyers in the profession.
