Temple City’s embattled formed City Councilwoman Judy Wong accepted a judicial offer and pled no contest Wednesday to 10 counts in the much publicized bribery and perjury case.
Wong faces a maximum sentence of 16 months in state prison. She will be sentenced on July 22.

Wong and Cathe Wilson were indicted last year after developer Randy Wang’s allegations that they solicited bribes in exchange for support for Wang’s proposed Temple City Piazza mall project.
Wong resigned from her council post in March while Wilson lost her re-election bid last spring.
