(CHICAGO) In the Rod Blagojevich story, the imprisoned ex-governor’s attorney has again filed the paperwork requesting Blago’s 14 year sentence be commuted to the current six-plus years time-served.
Interesting in this request is that it comes only days after President Trump said he was considering clemency for Blago.
The sentence probably wouldn’t be so long if Blago hadn’t attacked the prosecution before his trial. Listen to Blago back in 2008:
“While they’re lying about me – I can take it, I’m in this business – last week in their proffer of lies, they’re now hitting below the belt, they are attacking my wife. They are cowards and they are liars!”
But lately Blago’s wife Patti – hoping for clemency – has been attacking the government again on Fox News, the President’s favorite news channel.
