Embattled state Assemblyman William Boyland’s ex-chief-of-staff will plead guilty today to political corruption, sources told The Post.
Ry-Ann Hermon was charged with bribery and conspiracy in December 2011 and is scheduled to appear in Brooklyn federal court.
Prosecutors say that between August 2010 and August 2011, Hermon, Boyland and others “conspired to solicit and accept bribes” from a carnival promoter and two undercover FBI agents, whom they believed to be out-of-state businessmen.
The feds said Hermon pocketed $2,000 in cash bribes. She’s facing up to 20 years behind bars.
Boyland (D-Brooklyn) said he was not aware of Hermon’s expected guilty plea and had no comment. The Assembly said Hermon left Boyland’s staff Jan. 18, 2012.
Boyland is facing his own trial on corruption charges.
