Former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, her longtime partner and two local businessmen were named in an indictment unsealed Friday alleging the four conspired to funnel city business to companies owned by the men in exchange for money and benefits to Thao and her partner.

Federal authorities on Friday morning announced details of an indictment against recalled Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, her boyfriend, and two members of the politically influential Duong family.

Former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao, her boyfriend and a father-son team who run the local recycling company were indicted Friday on federal bribery and conspiracy charges for an alleged pay-to-play scheme.

Thao has maintained her innocence and denied she is at the center of a public corruption scandal. She has largely laid low since being recalled in November.

The indictment was announced seven months after FBI agents raided then-mayor Sheng Thao’s home and three properties owned by the powerful Duong family.

Two months after she was recalled as Oakland mayor, Sheng Thao has reportedly been criminally indicted by a federal grand jury, a blow to a city whose voters have made it clear they are fed up with crime and government dysfunction.
