Los Angeles Councilmember Curren Price was charged Tuesday with 10 counts of embezzlement, perjury and conflict of interest, the LA County District Attorney's Office said.
Price’s wife allegedly received payments totaling more than $150,000 between 2019 and 2021 from developers before he voted to approve projects, the DA’s office said. He also allegedly failed to list the money his wife received on government disclosure forms. "Today's charges against Councilman Curren Price are the result of a thorough investigation into allegations of public corruption. This alleged conduct undermines the integrity of our government and erodes the public's trust in our elected officials,” District Attorney George Gascón said in a statement. “We will continue to work tirelessly to root out corruption at all levels and hold accountable those who betray the public's trust.
