[dropcap size=big]T[/dropcap]here was yelling from the crowd, and an onslaught of deflection from Jose Huizar in the embattled councilman’s return to City Council Tuesday. It was his first public appearance since FBI agents raided his field offices, his office at City Hall, and his home in Boyle Heights.
“Where’s the transparency?” yelled resident Armando Herman at one point during public comment. He was later removed from the City Council chambers for causing a disturbance.
