A former Section 8 housing director for the Housing Authority of New Orleans, Dwayne Muhammad, pleaded guilty Wednesday to a federal theft charge, while his predecessor in the HANO post, Naomi Roberts, has been placed on indefinite leave because of allegations that she concealed her ownership of a Section 8 property.
Muhammad, 37, abruptly resigned from HANO in August after a TV news report alleged that he was using a voucher in his mother's name to help pay his rent at a house on Western Street in Gentilly.
He faces a maximum of 10 years in prison, plus restitution payments and fines. Sentencing in the case is slated for March 10. He is free on bond.
