La Douche Viagra (as I've taken to calling the horrible and disgusting Silvio Berlusconi) has been convicted of bribery.
Former Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi has been found guilty of bribing a senator in 2006 in an attempt to bring down the then centre-left government.
A Naples court sentenced Berlusconi to three years in jail and banned him from holding public office for five years.
The four-times prime minister denied the charges.
He will not have to serve his sentence because a statute of limitations comes into effect later this year, before any appeal can be held.
Having been to the Motherland several times all the Italians I met couldn't stand Berlusconi. Couldn't stand. So this bribery conviction couldn't have happened to a more deserving person.
