Marita Crawford, the 58-year-old former political director for Local 98, plead guilty in a Reading court Monday to using the union's money for expensive meals and a hotel stay. Her plea comes years after she originally plead not guilty in a 2019 indictment. "It was her decision to enter this plea with the hopes of moving on with her life putting this very, very difficult last few years behind her," Crawford's attorney Fortunato Perri said.
