This whole thing would have been a big nothingburger if he would have simply admitted that he made a mistake by secretly talking about county business. But instead he decided to lie under oath. That has proven to be a stupid decision.

I would also will be surprised, when sentenced, if he gets additional prison time. I agree that he should have just admitted to the issue in the first place. Because he lied and, he did create his own problem! Apparently, his lawyers had no defense to the proof presented by the prosecutors since the jury was only out 23 minutes for deliberation. It takes that long to take a rollcall and fill out the paperwork. The jurors obviously saw no reason to discuss the case.
