Blago’s brother: Jesse Jackson Jr. needs to ‘come clean’

The Chicago Sun-Times reports:

Jesse Jackson Jr. has resigned his seat in Congress, pleaded guilty to federal charges, agreed to pay back what he stole from his campaign fund and on Wednesday he will learn how much time he will spend behind bars.

Still, for Robert Blagojevich, the former congressman has some serious unfinished business he’s yet to confront.

“I believe that Jesse Jackson Jr. needs to unburden himself and come clean on the Senate seat,” Robert Blagojevich told the Chicago Sun-Times, referring to the central issue in a massive federal case that ultimately put his brother in prison for more than a decade.

“He sent two emissaries to bribe me and my brother and I turned the bribes down,” Robert Blagojevich charged. Jackson was never charged with a crime tied to Blagojevich and has always maintained his innocence.
