LOS ANGELES – A Los Angeles City Councilman is being indicted on federal corruption charges.
The 20-count indictment filed in Los Angeles federal court alleges that Mark Ridley-Thomas and the former dean of USC’s School of Social Work are both being indicted in connection to a bribery scheme.
Ridley-Thomas is accused of conspiring with Marilyn Louise Flynn, the ex-dean who agreed to give Ridley-Thomas’ relative “with graduate school admission, a full-tuition scholarship, a paid professorship, and a mechanism to funnel Ridley-Thomas campaign funds through the university to a non-profit to be operated by the relative.”
