CHICAGO (AP) - Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich has been indicted
on charges he engaged in a "wide-ranging scheme to deprive the people
of Illinois of honest government." A federal grand jury handed down
the 19-count indictment against Blagojevich, his brother, two former
aides and two businessmen on Thursday. It accuses Blagojevich of
corruption involving billions of dollars in state pension bonds.
