Rezko and Eric Holder had Same Goal for Casino License : Movie Producer Testifies in Powerbroker Trial That Rezko Wanted 40% of Casino License

The Chicago Sun-Times reports on a big corruption trial in Chicago:

Rosenberg, testifying under a grant of immunity, answered a series of questions posed by Cellini’s attorney Terry Gillespie outside of the jury’s presence, so the judge could determine whether he would allow the testimony. Rosenberg said he didn’t think Cellini was personally trying to get money from him, but he believed Cellini was passing messages to and from fund-raisers Chris Kelly and Tony Rezko.

With the jury present, Rosenberg told Assistant U.S. Attorney Chris Niewoehner of a longtime, close business friendship with Cellini, a Springfield power broker accused of conspiring with Kelly, Rezko and pension board member Stuart Levine to get Rosenberg to ante up to Blagojevich’s campaign fund before he’d get future state work.

Rosenberg testified that soon after Blagojevich was elected governor, he warned Cellini about Rezko. Rosenberg said he told Cellini around 2003 that he heard Rezko made MGM Casino an offer. Rezko would deliver the last riverboat license in the state to MGM: “and in exchange get 40 percent.”

Guess who was working to help realize Tony Rezko's dreams of that last casino license? None other than Eric Holder. No word yet on this story from Chicago Mob Boss John "No Nose" DiFronzo who appreciates all the "hard" work Eric Holder has done before and after becoming Attorney General.
