The Globe reports. Her plea hearing is scheduled for 2 p.m. in Courtroom 1 at the Moakley Federal Courthouse before Judge Douglas Woodlock.
No word on the nature of her plea deal with federal prosecutors, who had her arrested in October, 2008 after her indictment on various charges related to alleged bribery and extortion involving Boston liquor licenses. She later had additional charges piled in, including allegedly conspiring with City Councilor Chuck Turner, who faces his own federal corruption trial.
The nature and number of the charges against Wilkerson would be enough to send her away for life if she were to go for trial and be convicted on all of them.
Turner's trial is scheduled for Oct. 12.
Innocent, etc.
