Wild civil and criminal litigation filed in South Florida’s state and federal courts has exposed an allegedly pernicious web of political corruption stretching from Southwest Ranches Town Hall to the Davie Police Department and on to State Attorney Harold Pryor himself.

A federal civil lawsuit filed March 19 targets Southwest Ranches, but also names as defendants former Town Administrators Andy Berns and Russell Muniz, Code Compliance Director Julio Medina and, most notably, Town Attorney Keith Poliakoff. The town contracts for municipal legal services with Poliakoff’s firm, Government Law Group, PLLC.
