Los Angeles City Councilman Mark Ridley-Thomas was suspended from office Wednesday amid a federal indictment on corruption charges.
The longtime elected official and Marilyn Louise Flynn, 83, the former dean of the University of Southern California's School of Social Work, face federal bribery and conspiracy charges that stem from his time on the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors.
The City Council voted 11-3 to suspend him.
The 20-count indictment accuses Ridley-Thomas, 66, of "supporting county contracts and lucrative contract amendments with the university" in exchange for benefits for a relative in 2017 and 2018, the Justice Department said.
