Today’s R&D covers the conviction of former Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell on eleven counts of public corruption. McDonnell, who was touted a few years ago as a possible running mate for Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, is the first former governor in Virginia history to be convicted of a crime. He will be sentenced in January and faces decades in prison.
