Former Los Angeles Deputy Mayor Raymond Chan has been convicted of all 12 federal charges he was facing in a corruption case. On Wednesday, a jury found Chan guilty of racketeering, bribery, fraud and giving false statements. The jury deliberated for only a few hours before announcing its verdicts.
Chan was heavily involved in a pay-to-play corruption scheme that also involved real estate developers and former L.A. City Councilman Jose Huizar, who pleaded guilty to racketeering and tax evasion charges last year. Chan will be sentenced on June 10th.
