CHARLOTTE — The daughter of former Charlotte city council member Tiawana Brown is expected to formally enter a guilty plea on Monday.

Antionette Rouse knowingly conspired with her sister, Tijema Rouse, and her mom, Tiawana Brown, to commit wire fraud, according to court documents. Antionette Rouse falsely represented herself to receive more than $51,000 in COVID-19 relief money. She used that money on personal expenses, according to court records.

Tijema and Tiawana Brown have already pleaded guilty.

No one has been sentenced yet.
