Rod Blagojevich’s administration granted access and influence to Antoin ‘Tony’ Rezko because of his prowess as a fundraiser for the governor. Rezko’s role as a key Blagojevich insider is essential to understanding how he was able to extort illegal payments and a campaign contribution from firms seeking state business, prosecutors said in a motion filed a week before Rezko’s corruption trial is set to begin.” (Via NewsAlert.)
