The best information I have is that the McDonnells actually broke no laws, so my bet is on not guilty.
The decision is guilty on count one
1st Count: “Guilty.”
Guilty on count 1.
Guilty on count 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10
Maureen McDonnell not guilty on count 4 and 9, but guilty on all others with Bob.
First 10 of 14 counts...
Sentencing 1/6/15
What a mess....
Well, Bob was a bipartisan, reach-across-the-aisle kind of guy. This is what you get for that, I guess.
