decision from the supreme court, the rare unanimous decision to throw out former virginia governor bob mcdonnell's conviction on bribery charges. the former republican governor was convicted of 11 counts of public corruption in 2014. prosecutors claimed he accepted gifts and loans worth more than $175,000 in exchange for promoting a dietary supplement. but mcdonnell insisted he never took any official action to benefit the company, and the gifts themselves were allowed under virginia law at the time. the justices all agreed that the federal government failed to prove that mcdonnell performed an official act in exchange for the loans and gifts. chief justice john roberts wrote the opinion saying in part, there is no doubt that this case is distasteful, it may be worse than that, but our concern is not with the tawdry tales of ferraris, rolexes and ball gowns, it is instead with the broader legal implications of the government's boundless interpretation of the federal bribery statute. so the case was sent back to the lower courts to decide if prosecutors have enough evidence to try mcdonnell again.
