4 of the last 7 Illinois Governors have gone to jail:

Rod Blagojevich — Governor from 2002-2009, when he became the first Illinois governor in history to be impeached.
George Ryan — Governor from 1999-2003.
Dan Walker — Governor from 1973-1977.
Otto Kerner — Governor from 1961-1968.

CHICAGO (CBS)–Chicago is no stranger to corruption. More than 30 Chicago City Council members have been tied to corruption cases since the 1970’s, with Ald. Edward Burke (14th) becoming the latest Chicago politician to make headlines after being charged with one count of attempted extortion on Thursday, Jan. 3 for allegedly trying to use his power on the City Council to solicit business for his private law firm.

Judges are worse.
