Debbe Leftwich/Randy Terrill

A 12-member jury returns a guilty verdict against a former Oklahoma lawmaker accused of bribery. The jury sided with the prosecution that claimed former Representative Randy Terrill offered to set up former Democratic state Sen. Debbe Leftwich with an $80,000-a-year job at the medical examiner's office if she would agree to not seek re-election in 2010 so that a Republican, current Rep. Mike Christian of Oklahoma City, could run for her open seat.
