Depends who brought the charges. Somebody with an ax to grind internally would just bring the charges because they got exposed so I’m taking you down with me.
Somebody external would charge with bribery because they’re participating in the scheme.
If you bribe you’re not innocent. You might be in an unwinnable position, you might have to do it, but you are facilitating the cycle.
I mean, if you change the word from bribery to extortion it sounds a lot closer to what happened. People don’t normally wait 2 years to start bribing people for something they should already have gotten.
