The Illinois attorney general's office has sued a Chicago recycling company for misusing $88,000 of state grant money administered during former Gov. Rod Blagojevich's term, the Tribune reports.
Six aldermen have been subpoenaed in the trial of developer Calvin Boender as his attorneys attempt to extricate him from a fraud conviction. Boender was indicted with Ald. Isaac Carothers (29th) on charges related to the Galewood Yards project on the West Side. The aldermen, who have not yet been identified by the city, have been ordered to provide trial testimony.
The Chicago Tribune is reporting two sources as saying that Christopher Kelly, a key player in the Rod Blagojevich investigation, is dead.
Finally. The moment we've all been waiting for: to hear from the brother of disgraced former governor Rod Blagojevich. Older brother Rob spoke to the Sun-Times' Natasha Korecki and talked about growing up with Rod, working for his campaign, and that fateful December 2008 morning.
