CHICAGO ? Rod R. Blagojevich, the ousted former governor of
Illinois,
was convicted on Tuesday of making false statements to the Federal
Bureau of Investigation, but the jury in the corruption case
against
him also reported that it was hopelessly deadlocked on 23 out of 24
counts against him.

Former Gov. Rod R. Blagojevich of Illinois and his wife, Patti,
arrived to hear the verdict in his corruption trial in Chicago on
Tuesday.

The jury?s findings, which came on the 14th day of deliberation,
were
seen as a victory for Mr. Blagojevich and his defense team and a
significant setback for federal authorities, who arrested Mr.
Blagojevich almost two years ago to stop what they described
unambiguously as ?a political corruption crime spree,? including
attempts to sell the appointment to fill the Senate seat once
held by
President Obama.

?The conduct would make Lincoln roll over in his grave,? Patrick J.
Fitzgerald, the United States attorney for the Northern District of
Illinois, said of Mr. Blagojevich at the time.

Judge James B. Zagel accepted the jury?s verdict on the false
statements count on Tuesday and declared a mistrial on the
remaining
counts, the bulk of the case. Federal prosecutors said immediately
that they will try Mr. Blagojevich once more.

Sonny, do you know the difference between hung jury and not
guilty? Ask
your little legal beagle girlfriend. Man, you're stupid.

You stupid little ****z. He was not found guilty, hence he is not
guilty. You embarrass yourself in all of your posts.

Sorry Bozo. He has not been declared not guilty and plans are
underway to re
try him. Does that sound like he is not guilty? Come on, show us
that you
really do have a working brain.

Heh. He'd have to have a brain to do that.


You understand with Harry it's not about truth or even facts, it's about
politics... The freak has nothing else...


Everyone I know says he is not guilty of any crimes.
