Former Ward 5 councilmember Harry Thomas, Jr. is now serving a 38-month sentence at a federal prison in Alabama, but the memory of his theft of $350,000 in city funds remains—notably in the form of the money he has to pay back.

By his own account, Thomas doesn’t have much money left; he’s still struggling to pay back D.C. under the terms of a civil agreement he reached with Attorney General Irv Nathan in mid-2011. But the federal government is doing what it can, selling off just about any asset it can directly link back to Thomas. (His home is in his wife’s name, so that’s off-limits.)

Yesterday U.S. Attorney for D.C. Ron Machen filed paperwork to sell off a 2008 Chevy Tahoe that Thomas owned and was seized during a raid of his home. (Credit goes to the Legal Times for posting the court filing.) When he registered it last year, the Tahoe was listed as being worth $39,000; yesterday’s court filing says that Thomas owes close to $11,000 on the SUV. The money from its sale won’t go to pay back what Thomas stole, though—Machen agreed to use the proceeds to settle the debt he owes on it instead.

This likely won’t be the last auction related to Thomas’ case—the feds also seized a 2008 Victory Ness motorcycle, which he purchased for close to $24,000.
