Now that legal channels seem to be closed for former Governor Rod Blagojevich to appeal his corruption conviction, his wife took to Fox News to make a direct case for President Trump’s help on a pardon or commutation of his sentence.
Patti Blagojevich told Tucker Carlson this week that her husband is in jail for asking for campaign contributions. Trump knows Blagojevich through an appearance on his reality TV show, Celebrity Apprentice.
The President could either end Blagojevich’s time in prison or grant a full pardon and wipe the former Governor’s record clean.
