(KRON) -- Former Oakland Mayor Sheng Thao is now facing criminal charges after being indicted by a federal grand jury. The San Francisco Chronicle first reported the indictment. The indictment comes after last year's FBI raid of Thao's Oakland home. Thao was recalled in November's election after serving two years as Oakland's mayor. Thao's final day in office was in December.

In her exit interview as mayor last month, Thao told KRON4, "I'm innocent. I've done nothing wrong." "(The FBI raid) definitely had a huge negative impact on the recall," Thao said. "The FBI has told me I’m not the target of this, although they won’t come out (and say it)."
