A Yonkers man who paid a Chappaqua Central School District employee over $5,000 in bribes and kickbacks has been found guilty after a two-week jury trial.

Ricardo Jimenez, 57, and an employee at the Chappaqua School District plotted together to give work projects to Jimenez's company, then later kick back portions of the payments to the district employee in cash and checks made out from another company.

Jimenez is scheduled to be sentenced in November.

He faces up to 15 years in state prison.
