Jury selection is expected to start Tuesday for the trial of suspended Los Angeles City Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas, who faces federal corruption charges.
Flynn that year was trying to get an amendment to a lucrative contract between the school of social work and the county mental health department involving services provided by USC Telehealth -- a clinic with USC students providing online mental health and counseling services to county-referred clients.
Flynn, 84, of Los Feliz, is scheduled to be sentenced June 26. The federal bribery charge potentially carries a term of up to 10 years behind bars. Ridley-Thomas was suspended from the Los Angeles City Council following the October 2021 federal indictment. He is charged with one count each of conspiracy and bribery, two counts of honest services mail fraud and 15 counts of honest services wire fraud. He has vehemently denied any wrongdoing.
