This just in from multiple broadcast stations here in Chicago:
Jesse Jackson Jr filed for divorce from his fellow convict wife at 430pm today in Chicago.
More to come...running on FOX 32 and WGN-TV right now.
Aww, so you were a ground-breaker. That was cool...
Okay, maybe not.
It felt like they were taking over my mind.
I tell ya, I think that Commander McBragg guy was stretching the truth, too.
And I found it hard to believe Roger Ramjet had the strength of 20 atom bombs for a period of 20 seconds. Seemed very, very dangerous....
Trial, conviction, and sentencing
Jackson and wife Sandi signed plea agreements in early February 2013. Jackson Jr. agreed to plead guilty to charges of fraud, conspiracy, making false statements, mail fraud, wire fraud, and criminal forfeiture—having used about $750,000 in campaign money for over 3000 personal purchases that included a Michael Jackson fedora and cashmere capes.
The Justice Department filed the charges on February 15, 2013, and Jackson pleaded guilty on February 20, 2013 to one count of wire and mail fraud in connection with his misuse of $750,000 of campaign funds. On June 7, 2013, federal prosecutors indicated that they sought a four-year prison sentence for Jackson.[114] On August 14, 2013, Jackson was sentenced to 30 months in federal prison,[5] while wife Sandi was sentenced to 12 months in prison for filing false tax returns in attempt to conceal the crimes.[115] The two sentences did not run concurrently. Rather, Jackson initially served prison time and upon his release, his wife was to begin her prison tenure shortly thereafter. The staggered sentences allowed for the Jackson children to have access to at least one parent during the time each is in prison.[116]
Prison and release
On October 26, 2013, Jackson reported to the Federal Correctional Complex in Butner, near Raleigh, North Carolina, to begin serving his sentence.
On March 26, 2015, Jackson was released from the minimum-security Federal Prison Camp, Montgomery in Montgomery, Alabama, to serve the rest of his sentence at a halfway house (the Volunteers of America Chesapeake facility in Baltimore, Maryland). After being released, Jackson will be required to complete another three years on supervised release and perform 500 hours of community service. Former U.S Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. was released in the morning of June 22, 2015, after spending three months serving his remaining sentence in a halfway house.

He says he is feeling ill and would like to see the doctor.
The other statement is, maybe he found a “Reggie” or Bobby Titcomb in Man’s Country in the Gray Bar Hotel.
