Kwame Kilpatrick and Ferguson also were found guilty of extortion.

"Not at this time. I don't have any comment," Kwame Kilpatrick said to reporters while walking out of court.

Breaking with typical protocol, the verdict was not read by the jury foreperson. Instead, Judge Nancy Edmunds read the verdicts herself. The jury's foreperson was Juror No. 1, a white woman.

The panel of eight women and four men deliberated for close to 100 hours before finally reaching their decisions. The verdict was reached on Friday. The jury decided to go home and sleep on it over the weekend to see if anyone would change his or her mind by Monday morning.

The prosecution wants Kwame Kilpatrick and Ferguson in custody immediately. The judge will decide that during a 1:30 p.m. meeting. The prosecution believes they are flight risks.

Bernard Kilpatrick said the jury got it wrong and that he felt terrible about the verdicts.

"You can stand out here all day ... we have no comment," he said.
