A former California Democrat who previously served in the House is facing a plea deal over wire fraud, money laundering, and other federal charges from 2022. Terrance John 'T.J.' Cox, who represented California's 21st Congressional District from 2019 to 2021, is currently facing a total of 28 charges, which is more than the charges faced by former New York GOP Rep. George Santos.
A hearing for Cox, where the plea deal was mentioned in court documents filed on Wednesday, was rescheduled from March 27 to May 22 due to the extensive amount of digital records and financial evidence that Cox's attorney needs to review before assessing the offer.
