Former Md. Lawmaker To Admit to Bribes - Yahoo News via AP
Former state Sen. Thomas Bromwell, a powerful figure in Annapolis during his nearly 20 years in the legislature, has agreed to plead guilty to taking bribes from a construction company executive, his attorney said Friday.
Bromwell, 58, will plead guilty to racketeering conspiracy and filing a false tax return, said attorney Barry Pollack. Sentencing guidelines call for a prison term of about 6 1/2 years to 8 years for the former Senate Finance Committee chairman, Pollack said.
Bromwell's wife, Mary Patricia Bromwell, will plead guilty to one count of mail fraud, Pollack said. Her attorney, William Purpura, did not immediately return a telephone call Friday. Sentencing guidelines call for her to serve between 2 1/2 years and 3 years, he said.
Thomas Bromwell, a Democrat, represented Baltimore County from 1983 to 2002.
