Question of the day

Posted in:

• Illinois

* Sun-Times story by Jon Seidel and Tina Sfondeles about the new federal bribery charges against Sen. Emil Jones III (D-Chicago)...

The state senator allegedly lied to the FBI about his role in the scheme Sept. 24, 2019.

That was the same day federal agents raided the home and offices of state Sen. Martin Sandoval, including in the state Capitol building. Sandoval died in 2020.

That was three years ago, and the story notes the way he was charged means he’s likely to plead guilty.

* The Question: Your one-word reaction to the fact that Sen. Jones was questioned by and allegedly lied to the feds the same day they raided Sandoval? One word only, please. And keep it clean.
