Staring out at news cameras as a free man for perhaps the last time for more than a decade, former Gov. Rod Blagojevich bid adieu to Illinois residents in a prime-time, live-on-TV address Wednesday evening, a day before he heads off to prison.The history of Chicago corruption moves on.
Blagojevich is to begin his 14-year prison term Thursday when he’s due to report to the Federal Correctional Institution Englewood, a low-security federal prison in Denver’s southwest suburbs, near Littleton, Colo.
