DALLAS (February 3, 2010)—State Rep. Terri Hodge, D-Dallas, has pleaded guilty to federal charges stemming from an alleged bribery scheme and will resign from office, the U.S. Attorney's Office in Dallas announced Wednesday.

Prosecutors said Hodge, 69, pleaded guilty in Dallas to fraud and false statements on an income tax return.

She faces as much as three years in prison, a $100,000 fine and restitution to the IRS.

A sentencing date has not been set.

Hodge has agreed never again to hold public office.

The Dallas Democrat has been a state representative since 1996 and was running for reelection.

According to court documents, Hodge received more than $32,000 in rental subsidies, utilities and carpeting from an apartment developer who built complexes in her district, but she never declared the funds as income on tax returns.
