LAFAYETTE, La. (KLFY) -- Former Lafayette Assistant District Attorney Gary Haynes has been convicted on all charges in his federal bribery trial in Lafayette this afternoon.

The jury took less than three hours to return guilty verdicts on charges of conspiracy to commit bribery, bribery, using his cell phone in furtherance of bribery, conspiracy to commit money laundering and obstruction of justice. If convicted, he faces up to 65 years in prison.

Haynes was accused of conspiring with Dusty Guidry, Leonard Franques and others to solicit bribes and kickbacks while Haynes was an assistant district attorney at the 15th Judicial District Attorney’s Office.

Haynes oversaw the Pretrial Intervention (PTI) program, which offered an alternative to criminal prosecution for certain charges. Haynes allegedly directed approved defendants for the program to take classes from Franques’s companies, authorities said.

Those defendants paid money to take those classes in order to complete the program, authorities said, which would result in Haynes dismissing the criminal charges against them.

Haynes was accused of receiving kickbacks in exchange for accepting people into the PTI program, directing those people to Franques’s companies, and then dismissing the charges against the people who enrolled in and paid for the courses that Franques’s companies provided.
