Johnson's last council meeting full of votes

A vocal Leslie Johnson spent her final Prince George’s County Council meeting Tuesday voting on a bevy of legislation and appointments, before swiftly leaving the council dais for the last time. Johnson, D-Mitchellville, plans to resign July 31 after pleading guilty June 30 to charges of conspiracy to commit federal witness and evidence tampering. She admitted to stuffing $79,600 in cash in her bra and underwear and flushing a $100,000 check down the toilet at the instruction of her husband, then-County Executive Jack Johnson.

Despite the urging of her fellow council members to step down immediately, Johnson has remained a steady, if not awkward, presence at council meetings. She was stripped of her staff and county-issued property July 8.
