Rezko Talks To Feds: Knowledgeable Source Says Relationship with Blagojevich and Obama, Indictments Possible
Tony Rezko is talking.Giving up information on Illinois Governor Rod Blagojevich isn't going to cut enough years off Rezko's sentence.A knowledgeable, unnamed, source with close ties to prominent criminal defense attorneys in Chicago says Tony Rezko is talking about everything from Congressman Luis Gutierrez's town house to the sensitive subject of Rezko's campaign contributions to Senator Barack Obama.Was Obama's real estate deal with Rezko a bribe? Stay tuned because Operation Board Games is far from over.According to our source,Rezko seems to be talking about the Health Facilities Planning Board where Barack Obama was Rezko's "inside guy in the Illinois senate as far as setting up the Health Facilities Planning Board "(to use an Evelyn Pringle phrase).A criminal indictment of Barack Obama is actually possible.During the Rezko trial,the Obama campaign had someone(physically in court) to monitor the court proceedings every day.Here's the interesting court document where Rezko claims the Feds are interested in dirt on Barack Obama.
