Both defendants were ordered not to leave the Eastern District of Pennsylvania – nine counties in the southeastern part of the state – without court approval and to report in person once a week to federal pre-trial services personnel and three more times each week by phone.
Buckwalter did not set a sentencing date but scheduled a hearing for Thursday morning on how much in assets Fumo should be ordered to forfeit, based on the jury's finding that he illegally funneled public funds for his personal benefit.
Prosecutors are expected to seek a prison term of more than 10 years for the once-powerful politician.
Earlier, after the jury returned its verdict, Fumo, 65, embraced his daughter Allie and his girlfriend Carolyn Zinni, both of whom were weeping, as was Arnao.
Fumo looked nervous and ashen while waiting for the jury to return and the courtroom was packed as the jury forewoman announced one guilty verdict after another.
Buckwalter discharged the jury after all 12 members were polled and said they agreed with the verdicts, reached after a four-month trial and five days of deliberations.
Outside of court, juror Myrna DeVoren said Fumo had started out with good intentions that somehow became twisted.
"It is not a family-owned business," she said of Fumo's former Senate office.
DeVoren said the jurors looked for reasonable doubt, but found none.
"I'm very disappointed," said Fumo's defense attorney, Dennis J. Cogan, as he walked from the 17th floor courtroom at the U.S. Courthouse off Independence Mall. "But it's on now to the next part of the process."
Cogan said he would immediately move for a new trial for Fumo.
