Puerto Rico Governor Anibal Acevedo Vila surrendered to authorities Friday on federal corruption charges. A federal indictment unsealed Thursday accuses Acevedo and a dozen associates of scheming to raise and conceal thousands of dollars in illegal campaign contributions. If convicted, the governor faces up to 20 years in prison.
Acevedo, an Obama superdelegate, has denied any wrongdoing and accused U.S. investigators of distracting him from trying to revive the island's economy.
