New York Lt. Governor Brian Benjamin resigned from his post just months after being appointed.
The Lt. Governor was arrested this morning in a federal corruption investigation.
The U.S. Attorney’s office said Benjamin was arrested on charges of bribery, honest services wire fraud, and falsification of records.
In September, the former state senator from Harlem was appointed Lt. Governor by Governor Kathy Hochul to fill her former job after she stepped into the governorship.
Benjamin is the state’s second Black lieutenant governor.
