| [WASHINGTONPOST] A federal judge today upheld Rod Blagojevich’s 14-year sentence for public corruption, rejecting tearful appeals from the former Illinois governor’s wife and daughters during a resentencing hearing in Chicago. Blagojevich, his signature thick mane of black hair now turned white, appeared via closed-circuit television from the Colorado prison where he has been for four years. “I think I’m a very different person and I think I’ve become someone who has learned a lot from the mistakes I have made,” he told Judge James Zagel. |
