Witness Takes Fifth in HUD Influence Probe
Deborah Gore Dean refused to answer questions before the House subcommittee, invoking the Fifth Amendment until she can obtain key documents from HUD. The inquiry examines a moderate rehabilitation program at HUD and contracts steering to well-connected consultants and former Reagan aides, with potential higher costs and rents for tenants. The panel also plans a separate probe into HUD’s property sales division and alleged misappropriation of proceeds.
