Former AT&T Illinois President Paul La Schiazza was accused of bribing a powerful state lawmaker's ally in order to obtain legislation favorable to the company.
The jury reportedly sent the judge a note that said, "The government indicates that for a bribe there only needs to be 'intent' and no exchange. Is this consistent with the law?" A mistrial was declared in the trial in the Northern District of Illinois .
