John Noguez, the Los Angeles County Assessor, was arrested this morning on corruption charges, along with his deputy Mark McNeil and controversial tax agent Ramin Salari.
Noguez was taken into custody at his home in Huntington Park. He and his co-defendants face 31 counts related to a wide ranging pay-to-play scandal. Bail has been set at $1.3 million for both Noguez and Salari and $1.1 million for McNeil.
