One of two former Pennsylvania judges accused of taking millions of dollars in kickbacks to send youth offenders to private profit-making detention facilities has agreed to plead guilty to a federal racketeering charge.

Former Luzerne County judge Michael Conahan will plead guilty to his role in the $US2.8 million ($A3m) "kids for cash" scandal, according to a plea agreement filed in Scranton on Thursday.

Prosecutors said Conahan and another former judge, Mark Ciavarella Jr, took kickbacks from the owner and builder of two private juvenile detention facilities.
