Former state district judge Abel C. Limas of Brownsville pled guilty in a RICO case to taking bribes to fix cases, hours after his arrest by federal agents. The indictment charges Lima with using his court to "generate income ... through bribery, extortion, favoritism, improper influence, personal self-enrichment, self-dealing, concealment and conflict of interest." It goes on to list eight separate alleged episodes of racketeering.
The sentence for racketeering ranges from 10 years to life. I bet there are some Brownsville lawyers looking over their shoulders.
