All 5 in Chicago Mob trial found guilty of all counts

The Chicago Tribune reports:
A federal jury in Chicago today convicted four reputed Outfit figures and a former Chicago police officer on all counts in the landmark Family Secrets mob-conspiracy case, but its duties are not yet finished.

The jury is expected to hear arguments Tuesday and then deliberate again on whether the four reputed Outfit figures are guilty of any of 18 gangland slayings at the heart of the racketeering-conspiracy charge.

If found guilty in this second round, the four could face sentences of up to life in prison.
A big win today for the G.
