After talking it over for four days, a jury in Dallas has convicted housing developer Ruel Hamilton in a federal bribery case that led straight to Dallas city hall.
Hamilton was found guilty of bribing two one-time Dallas city council members, Dwaine Caraway and Carolyn Davis, to get their backing for development projects.
Two years ago, Davis died in a car crash after pleading guilty in this same case.
Caraway is currently in prison for an unrelated public corruption conviction.
Hamilton will be sentenced in November.
