Jesse Jakson Jr.

Jesse Jackson Jr., wife agree to plead guilty - Yahoo! News

You think is you misappropriated funds, purposely under reported your income taxes, and pleaded woe is me the government would give you a reduced sentence? I doubt I'd be so lucky, but I wonder what he'll get?


Yeah CG.....I have a couple articles up in States and under Midwest concerning these corrupt politicians of the Jackson Clan. To bad they couldn't get the OL man too. Btw he is pleading out to 5 yrs. Course they say Sandi will only get probation. Because she has to take care of their children. But it is funny how they ALL played on juniors Bi-polar condition. On one hand they explain away his so so traumatic difficulties due to his condition. Also Sandi saying that she had to resign so she could take care of her husband Yet then he has able to still go out and attend events and all.....like nothing ever happened.

Myself.....I think the House should still censure him So that he can never return to DC. As he is still under that ethics investigation. Also they should nullify all his votes. As he may not have been in his Right Mind when casting any of those votes for legislation and while in DC.
 
Now we know why JJ Jr played the "bipolar card". He'll definitely use his mental illness as an excuse and mitigating circumstance to get less of jail sentence.

Lets hope the House Ethics don't drop their investigation.....just because he resigned. Although I have more up over it in the other threads.

Also Illinois still has Derek Smith to deal with.

What's he going to get, 5 years? Most of it suspended. He'll be out in eighteen months. I'd be stunned if he serves even 2 years.
 
As we have seen from past experience throughout the US, Jackson's supporters would elect him again without hesitation.
