Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert has been released from prison
[CIRCA] Former House Speaker Dennis Hastert (R-IL) has been released from a Minnesota prison and transferred to a re-entry facility in reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,... , according to Federal Bureau of Prisons records. He is set to be released from the re-entry management office on Aug. 16. Once second in line to the presidency, Hastert, 75, is one of the highest-ranking U.S. politicians to ever go to prison. He had been serving a 15-month sentence in a banking violations case that revealed accusations that he had sexually abused teenage boys while coaching wrestling at Yorkville High School in suburban Chicago from 1965 to 1981. U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Durkin called Hastert "a serial child molester" during his sentencing. Hastert was not charged with child abuse because of statutes of limitation. Hastert pleaded guilty to violating federal banking laws in his efforts to pay $3.5 million to keep the accusations secret. Posted by: Fred 2017-07-19 |
