. . . and sentencing. She doesn’t call the judge a nitwit. Doesn’t have to, noting that she ruled out the Blagojevich connection (whether JJJr. offered big money for the senate seat), but rather credited JJJr. for testifying vs. Blago!
Prosecutors werent allowed to bring up the Blagojevich case at Jacksons sentencing. But Jesse Jackson Jr.s lawyer, Reid Weingarten, asked for less [prison] time for his client, in part, because Jackson was a critical witness at Blagojevichs trial who was very important to Blagojevichs conviction.
She let him do that?
[He] wouldnt have gotten away with that in Chicago.
The truth is that it was Blagojevich who called the ex-congressman to the stand.
As a defense witness. [italics

And then JJJr. chief defenseman Dan Webb called JJJr’s wife Sandi, who lived with him and their kids in DC
an extraordinary alderman. Too many people [wrote Korecki] would have pounced on the fact that, in the annals of corrupt Chicago aldermen, most had a leg up on her: At least they lived here.
Even though JJSr (Reverend Milker of corporate cash cows with threats of guerilla politics by way of boycott) urged her not to live outside the city they love so much!
