Dean Skelos and son guiltyThe next job Dean Skelos gets for his son will have to be in the prison commissary.

The former state Senate Majority Leader was convicted Friday of bribery, extortion and conspiracy charges for abusing his powerful post to enrich his son. The Manhattan Federal Court jury also convicted his son Adam, 33, of aiding and abetting in the scheme.

The felonious father and son face up to 130 years in prison when they're sentenced by Judge Kimba Wood early next year - the same amount of time former Assembly Speaker Sheldon Silver is facing after his conviction on corruption charges last month.
