Sandi Being Investigated

Just as everyone suspected once she resigned:

• A federal financial probe of the once-politically powerful Jesse and Sandi Jackson has evolved into two separate investigations, with federal authorities taking an independent look at former Ald. Sandi Jackson, sources close to the probe told the Chicago Sun-Times.
  
  Included in the scrutiny of Sandi Jackson, who resigned from her 7th Ward aldermanic position last month, is her access and use of her husband’s congressional campaign money, including credit card charges, as well as the movement of money from one account to another, sources say.
  
  In his resignation letter, Jesse Jackson Jr. acknowledged a federal probe and indicated his attorneys were working with federal authorities on it. For Sandi Jackson, however, sources cautioned that the feds are still weighing whether charges are warranted and noted that prosecutors do take into account — in a financial probe — charging husband and wife who are also a mom and a dad. The couple has school-aged children.
  
  “They are trying to sort it out right now and trying to figure out exactly what to do with her,” said one source close to the former alderman. Sandi Jackson was advised to get a lawyer at least four months ago.

Well that's answer is obvious. Prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. Neither one cared enough to take their children into consideration when they were breaking the law, why should it play into the feds decision?

If the feds had any balls whatsoever, Patti Blagojevich would have been in prison with Rod over a year ago and Dick Mell would have had to resign his spot to raise his grandkids.
