“How are the mighty fallen” might be an appropriate way to describe the bizarre story of the former Virginia governor and his wife. Bob and Maureen McDonnell were convicted on numerous counts of public corruption involving gifts of expensive clothing, a Rolex watch, vacations, golf and cash. A federal jury found the former governor and his wife accepted cash and gifts in exchange for favors for a vitamin executive. In order to try to save his own hide, the former governor took the stand and testified that he and his wife could not have conspired together because they didn’t get along and were barely speaking.
