A jury in federal court in Cincinnati has found former Ohio House Speaker Larry Householder and Matt Borges, the former chairman of the Ohio Republican party, both guilty of racketeering.
Federal prosecutors have called it the largest bribery and money laundering scheme in Ohio history.
Both men could face up to 20 years in prison because of their convictions.
