Ex-congressman TJ Cox will plead guilty to federal fraud charges, his attorney says
Briefly

Former Congressman TJ Cox will plead guilty to two counts of fraud, dismissing 24 charges while facing significant penalties linked to his financial misconduct.
Cox’s attorney mentioned, "Anytime you're in business there are thousands of transactions, and people sometimes make shortcuts. It’s something he had to deal with."
