Another Appeal By Ex- Governor George Ryan Denied

Another appeal by former Illinois governor George Ryan has been denied.  The 7th Circuit Court of Appeals ruled today Ryan couldn't be released early from his six-and-a-half-year prison sentence.  Ryan's lawyer, ex-Governor James Thompson, calls the decision disappointing.  Ryan could appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court, but Thompson isn't sure that will happen.  Ryan is in prison for racketeering and fraud.
