Americans should have NO DOUBT about the possibility of corruption and secret deals in Federal law enforcement. Trump should pardon Rod Blagojevich and let him lead the FBI. Don't know about leading the FBI but any fair minded person has to question whether Blagojevich received a fair trial. His sentence was also excessive. What raised red flags for me was the government's refusal to allow all their wire tapped tapes of him to be heard. Makes one wonder about the context of the conversations they based their prosecution of him upon. Don't know. Just made me wonder. |

This is a guy who once worked in the Cook County State's Attorney as a prosecutor and should have a pretty good idea of what makes a solid case. As a politician, Blago was a tireless campaigner and told people what they wanted to hear. But a little Blago goes a long way, and he never seemed to understand that. He got on the Illinois General Assembly's nerves and got impeached. I'm sure he got on the judge's nerves, too. The reason stated for the harsh sentance was that they wanted to make a public example of Blago. Corruption should no longer be politics as usual in Illinois, etc, etc, etc. I think Blago got an extra 7 years for being annoying. What raised red flags for me was the government's refusal to allow all their wire tapped tapes of him to be heard. Makes one wonder about the context of the conversations they based their prosecution of him upon. Don't know. Just made me wonder. Nothing on the tapes would have Blago unsaying what he said. I suspect Blago wanted the jury to hear boring hours of Blago NOT being a crook. Probably not the most brilliant defense. Could be the Feds were keeping someone else from getting tangled up in this, too. His publicity tour worked with me. I remember watching him and actually liking the guy. He's a very personable fellow. Obviously that is what made him a successful politician. I read an article about him in prison and it said he is very well liked by the other inmates. He's more than happy to help them out with legal appeals etc. Very commendable. Yeah there had to be things going on behind the scenes that only the insiders knew about. He must have really ticked off some of the other corrupt officials Illinois is infested with. What ever happened to the honor among thieves thing? |

Blago would have ticked off the corrupt officials if he squealed. If he stays quiet, he'll be treated like a stand-up guy when he walks out of prision. Assuming enough of his cronies are still in office by then. His release date is 2024. Goodness gracious. At least he's located in a pretty section of the country. https://www.bop.gov/inmateloc/ I should send him a card or something but probably won't. You never know what kind of list that would get me on with the feds. |

I was there ten months in 1963, Army Nuclear Missiles. ed-thelen.org I didn't see anything pretty about that. |

He is incarcerated in the FCI at Englewood, Colorado. And considering the urban **** hole you currently reside in; Jackson, Mississippi, I wouldn't be taking cheap shots at any place in Illinois. |
