A black Brooklyn state assemblyman who just beat a corruption rap has ben arrested on new charges of soliciting more than $250,000 in bribes from undercover FBI agents, authorities said

African-American William Boyland Jr. sought bribes from undercover agents who posed as associates of a carnival operator scouting locations in his district, and a real estate investor looking to break into the Brooklyn market, the new federal complaint says. The timing of the shakedown makes Boyland's actions more brazen: the feds say that he and a member of his staff asked an undercover agent for $7,000 in March 2011 — shortly after Manhattan federal prosecutors charged him with soliciting bribes from a health care organization.
