Using the public comment section of the City Council meeting, the speakers questioned the investigation that led to the indictment of Alarcón and his wife, Flora Montes De Oca, this week on a total of two dozen charges of voter fraud and perjury. Prosecutors say the couple has not been living in the Panorama City home in Alarcón's 7th Council District that they claim is their legal residence.
