South Carolina House Speaker Bobby Harrell (R) will plead guilty to the ethics and corruption charges he was indicted with in September, the Post and Courier reported.
Harrell was indicted on nine charges, including misusing campaign funds. The Post and Courier was unclear on how many of the charges Harrell plans to plead guilty to during his Thursday hearing.
Harrell allegedly used campaign funds to reimburse himself for flights he never took and paid himself with money from his campaign. The Speaker suspended himself from his office when he was indicted in September.
