Just heard a brief news report that Blago is claiming to be an informant too.
Isn’t Chicago an exciting place to be these days.
Use the “I’m an informant” defense is expected. Personally I believe the Feds moved on the complaint against Blago because they feared that if it continued it would very likely catch the incoming Obama administration on Federal corruption scandal.
The quote of “we moved in to prevent a crime” was really meant for the Obama.
