This morning I was entertained to find the Sun-Times posted calls played before the jury in Rezko’s ongoing trail.
Three Calls stood out as my favorites:
Stuart Levine-Jacob Kiferbaum call on April 18, 2004 at 10:04 a.m.
Stuart Levine-Jacob Kiferbaum call on April 18, 2004 at 11:50 a.m.
Stuart Levine-Steven Loren call on April 21, 2004 at 8:03 p.m. *Explicit Language, and Union connection at end
The Sun-Times also has a nifty Eye on Rezko Blog by Natasha Korecki, the Federal Courts Reporter. I think I’ll add it to my RSS feed and blogroll.
