埃斯皮诺萨逃过弹劾程序今年早些时候，一名特别检察官认定，在对潜在道德违规行为的调查后，有足够理由对埃斯皮诺萨启动弹劾程序。
Espinosa evaded impeachment proceedingsEarlier this year, a special prosecutor determined there was probable cause to initiate impeachment proceedings against Espinosa following an investigation into potential ethics violations.
该调查称，埃斯皮诺萨挪用了指定用于新冠疫情救助计划的公共资金，并在将资金分配给其家人拥有的企业时未披露利益冲突。
The investigation contended that Espinosa misappropriated public funds designated for a COVID-19 relief program and neglected to reveal conflicts of interest when distributing the funds to enterprises owned by her family members.
