Former dean of the USC School of Social Work pleaded guilty to a federal bribery charge in a political corruption case.
According to her plea agreement, in 2018, Flynn was trying to get an amendment to a contract between the School of Social Work and the LA County Department of Mental Health involving services provided by USC Telehealth -- a clinic with USC students providing online mental health and counseling services to county-referred clients.
After the money transfer was completed, Ridley-Thomas allegedly set up a meeting in May 2018 between Flynn and a high-level county official to discuss moving forward with the amendment Flynn was seeking on the Telehealth contract. Ridley-Thomas subsequently voted in favor of the amended contract, prosecutors said.
Ridley-Thomas was suspended from the LA City Council following the 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.
