Months earlier in 2016, Yee, a San Francisco Democrat, was sentenced to five years in prison for doing political favors in exchange for campaign cash in a separate federal corruption case. In 2014, the same year that Yee and Ronald Calderon were arrested, Wright, a Democrat from Inglewood, was sentenced to jail after he was convicted of eight felony counts, including perjury and voting fraud, for lying about living in his state Senate district.
