<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy">The judge disagreed.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy">&#8220;The jury&#8217;s guilty verdicts were readily supported by the extensive witness testimony and extensive documentary evidence admitted at trial, and there is no manifest injustice requiring a new trial,&#8221; Judge Sidney Stein decided.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy">A Manhattan federal jury found the New Jersey Democrat guilty on all charges, including bribery, fraud, acting as a foreign agent and obstruction, in July following a two-month-long trial.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy">Federal prosecutors said he accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes in the form of cash, gold bars, mortgage payments and more in exchange for the senator&#8217;s political clout.</p>
<p class="EkqkG IGXmU nlgHS yuUao lqtkC TjIXL aGjvy">He is scheduled to be sentenced next month and faces decades in prison.</p>
