Williams, 68, is one of 16 people convicted in a wide-ranging probe conducted by the office for the U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Michigan, which last December reached a deal with the union for independent oversight.
Williams' successor as head of the UAW, Gary Jones, pleaded guilty to embezzlement of union funds last June and is scheduled to be sentenced next month. Prosecutors said Williams accepted housing for himself and friends at private villas in Palm Springs, California, golf clothing and other merchandise, rounds of golf, meals, high-end liquor and cigars provided by co-conspirators, all paid for with union funds.
