Feds: Rezko steered money to Blago's wife

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

A key part of former Gov. Rod Blagojevich's criminal indictment describes how crooked businessman Tony Rezko steered real estate deals to Blagojevich's wife -- a price Rezko paid to wield clout within the Blagojevich administration, according to federal prosecutors.

Two of the three deals appear to have been fairly straightforward. They involved Rezko properties for which Patti Blagojevich, a real estate broker, was paid fees that were supposed to have been for her work -- but which prosecutors say were really to curry favor with her husband.
