Councilman Price Faces Heightened Corruption Investigation

Los Angeles Councilman Curren Price is facing intensified scrutiny from prosecutors investigating potential corruption and conflict of interest.

Prosecutors attempted to compel Price's wife's testimony before a grand jury, issuing subpoenas to his staff and associates.

The investigation centers around Price's votes allegedly benefiting his wife's real estate consulting firm, leading to multiple criminal charges.

Price denies all wrongdoing, pleading not guilty to twelve counts including embezzlement, perjury, and conflict of interest violations.
