Newly released documents from an FBI investigation into former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao reveal her involvement in alleged corrupt practices. Among the findings, it has been suggested that Thao directed a top administrator to engage with individuals accused of bribery. Additionally, the documents indicate that Thao considered using city funds to settle debts owed to a consultant linked to her campaign. The investigation has raised serious concerns about her administration's conduct, with potential implications for her future, as she now faces the possibility of 95 years in federal prison for charges including corruption, fraud, and money laundering.
