Disgraced BC MP Svend Robinson is going to plead guilty to stealing a ring.
The longtime New Democrat admitted to stealing the expensive ring from an auction house last April.
He said he was suffering from stress and would be seeking help.
The theft was caught on video.
Robinson was charged with theft over $5,000 in late June.
His lawyer says Robinson will be accepting full responsibility for his actions and will plead guilty.
Robinson is due back in court Aug. 6.
