The Justice Department unsealed the indictment on Thursday. Myers was expelled from Congress in 1980 after taking bribes from an undercover FBI agent as a part of the ABSCAM investigation.
Myers, 77, conspired with and bribed the former judge of elections for Philadelphia's 39th Ward, 36th Division -- Domenick J. Demuro -- to illegally add votes for certain candidates in the Democratic Party during primary elections from 2014 to 2016, according to the Justice Department. Myers and Demuro are both Democrats
