Jesse Jackson Jr. charged with campaign fraud
Source: Chicago Tribune

WASHINGTON — Former U.S. Rep. Jesse Jackson Jr. was charged today with violating federal law by misusing campaign funds.

Jackson, 47, a Democrat from Chicago, faces felony charges, including conspiracy, in a criminal information filed in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia. Typically, federal prosecutors use an information to charge defendants when a plea deal has been negotiated.

Jesse Jackson is accused of diverting $750,000 in campaign funds for personal use.

Jackson stepped down from the House of Representatives on Nov. 21, citing both his poor health and an ongoing federal probe of his activities. In a statement then, he said he was doing his best to cooperate with federal investigators and to accept responsibility for his “mistakes.”

In a statement today, Jackson said:

“Over the course of my life I have come to realize that none of us are immune from our share of shortcomings and human frailties. Still I offer no excuses for my conduct and I fully accept my responsibility for the improper decisions and mistakes I have made. To that end I want to offer my sincerest apologies to my family, my friends and all of my supporters for my errors in judgment and while my journey is not yet complete, it is my hope that I am remembered for the things that I did right.”

2. President Obama should commute his sentence like Bush did to Scooter Libby

being that Libby's crimes were far, far worse and put people's lives in danger.

24. As said, that is what President Obama should do. Didn't absolve the guilt, just the sentence.

House arrest, ankle bracelet, rehab etc.

It's not like he is going to do it again, therefore, there is no need for prison.

Prison is suppose to be rehab.

It's not like he was a mad terroristic cop who shot up a police force.

This isn't a grey area, it's a black and white issue anyhow.

Only to a DUmmy. Prisons are for punishment.

I'm not sure he knew what was going on

Why do members of the democrat party, when caught in a criminal activity, claim Dain Bramaged?

The reason JJJr suddenly had bipolar is because he knew the shit was going down.  He thought he could hospitalize his way out of it. You people are fools time and time again.

You mean Richard Armitage, right?  Yes, I'm sure Secret Agent Plame was in imminent danger of breaking a nail.   :whatever:
