Blagojevich tells judge he's sorry for crimes - Yahoo! News
CHICAGO (AP) — In a last plea for mercy, Rod Blagojevich tried a tactic he never has before: an apology.
The disgraced former Illinois governor told a judge Wednesday that he made "terrible mistakes" and acknowledged that he broke the law when he tried to sell an appointment to President Barack Obama's former Senate seat.
After protesting his innocence for years, Blagojevich's plea on the second day of his sentencing hearing came as he hopes to avoid a prison term of up to 20 years. Judge James Zagel was expected to deliver his sentence Wednesday.
"I'm here convicted of crimes ... ," Blagojevich said, "and I am accepting of it, I acknowledge it and I of course am unbelievably sorry for it."..........
Sure. I bet he is sorry. He is sorry that he got caught. He is sorry he got convicted, mostly he is sorry because he couldn't wiggle out of his conviction and will be cleaning toilets in prison for the better part of a decade.:Dancing-Banana:
Every state has a POS like him and they need to join Blago. There are lots of POS in Washington D.C. that need this treatment as well.
