WASHINGTON — The House ethics trial of Rep. Maxine Waters was postponed indefinitely Friday after investigators discovered an e-mail that could affect charges that she improperly tried to help a bank in which her husband owns stock.
The e-mail is inconclusive on whether Waters, D-Calif., was trying to get favored treatment for OneUnited Bank. It shows that Waters, a senior member of the Financial Services Committee, closely watched the drafting of sections of bank bailout legislation that would have benefited the bank.
