Former County Executive Steve Stenger pleaded guilty Friday to three counts of federal corruption: theft of honest services, bribery and mail fraud. He resigned April 29 after a federal grand jury’s indictment was unsealed.

Stenger represented unincorporated South County in Clayton for a decade. Here’s a look back at the four years with Stenger at the helm of St. Louis County and his six years representing South County as the 6th District county councilman.
