Later life
He was a admirable judge, but in the course of his rising he has made enemies who finally combined to bring against him charges of bribery and the betrayal of justice .Bacon’s guilt lay less in financial corruption than in too great readiness to allow court influence to affect his legal decisions.
He was convicted, deprived of his office, and banished from London
He died in 1626 and spent the remaining years in his literacy and philosophical works.
