Philly State Sen: 'I Am The F-ing Senator, I do What The F- I Want, And Ain't Nobody Going To Change Me'

| Sen. LeAnna Washington |
State Sen. LeAnna Washington will plead guilty to accusations that she used taxpayer resources to plan political fund-raisers, her attorney said in court Friday.
Washington, a Democrat who represents parts of Philadelphia and Montgomery Counties, faces two felony charges of theft of services and conflict of interest. A hearing will be scheduled for next Thursday or Friday, where she will plead guilty to one or both charges, lawyer Henry Hockeimer said.
If convicted of both counts, Washington, 69, could have faced up to 12 years in jail. It's unclear whether her negotiated plea will include jail time.
Senior Deputy Attorney General Susan DiGiacomo said the attorneys will meet Monday to finalize paperwork, but Washington "will have to show up for the plea."
