ATLANTA (AP) - A federal jury has convicted a former DeKalb County police lieutenant on bribery charges.
Former officer Willie Daren Durrett was convicted Friday on charges of accepting bribes from a businessman and conspiring with former DeKalb County Deputy Chief of Police Donald Frank to accept bribes.
U.S. Attorney Sally Quillian Yates says Durrett and Frank accepted money from 48-year-old businessman Amin Budhwani. The evidence at trial indicated that Budhwani initially approached Durrett in 2007 to help him intimidate a small business owner who Budwani had a dispute.
Frank pleaded guilty and was charged with one count of conspiracy to take bribes. Budhwani pleaded guilty in 2010 to paying bribes to Frank.
Frank and Budhwani testified against Durrett during his federal trial.
The sentencing for Durrett has been set for Sept. 27.
