It's been over a year now since Sheryl Davis resigned as executive director of the San Francisco Human Rights Commission (HRC), amid a bombshell report about her apparent use of taxpayer dollars for frivolous expenses like a $10,000 house rental on Martha's Vineyard. Davis, who was also appointed by former Mayor London Breed to lead the mayor's Dream Keeper initiative which was intended to direct more city funds to the city's historically underserved Black population now may face more scrutiny after the release of a city audit report detailing the full extent of that unethical spending.

According to the complex case, the alleged misappropriation was part of a wider pattern of fiscal wrongdoing by Maple & Ash co-owner Jerald Lasky, his brother James Lasky and by companies controlled by them.
