Senator Alejandro Williams (San Pedro de Macoris-PLD), who works full-time as a dentist in New York City, is being questioned for harassing journalists in the Dominican Republic. Maria Isabel Soldevila, editor at Listin Diario, Margarita Cordero, editor of 7dias.com.do and Norma Sheppard, reporter for Radio Mil in San Pedro de Macoris came forward to report that two men, one identified as the senator's bodyguard, had posed as US federal detectives investigating any information they may have about the report that the senator was under investigation for Medicaid fraud. Last January Listin Diario revealed that the Senator lives and works full time in New York, despite having been elected as senator for the province of San Pedro de Macoris on the ruling PLD ticket.
