Former Jackson Mayor Chokwe Antar Lumumba pleaded guilty to one count of conspiracy to commit bribery, wire fraud and money laundering, while ex-City Council member Aaron Banks pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit bribery in a federal corruption investigation tied to a downtown hotel project; District Attorney Jody Owens also pleaded guilty last week.
