Another state ethics investigation of Francis Suarez dropped

State ethics officials have dismissed another complaint against Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, finding “no probable cause” to believe he accepted pricey Formula One and World Cup tickets for government influence.

The decision comes a month after the Florida Commission on Ethics tossed another complaint filed by Democratic activist Thomas Kennedy over Suarez’s use of city security staff during his short White House bid.

Suarez, over whom federal and local probes into alleged misuses of office still hang, said the latest dismissal “provides irrefutable proof that the vicious and politically motivated attacks on (his) character are completely inaccurate and without merit.”
