Breaking News - Let Your Voice Be Heard - Join Our Forums Today

Inglewood Mayor Roosevelt Dorn pleaded guilty yesterday to a misdemeanor conflict-of-interest charge and has resigned his position.

As part of a plea agreement, the 74-year-old Dorn will be barred from holding public office for the rest of his life. He submitted his resignation as mayor Sunday night, according to the District Attorney's Office.

Dorn's guilty plea came just as jury selection was about to begin in his trial on charges stemming from his acceptance of a $500,000 loan through a city housing program. He was immediately sentenced to two years probation and ordered to pay a $1,000 fine.
