It’s been nearly three months since Jesse Jackson Jr.
resigned from Congress, but now NBC News confirms that Jackson has
signed papers in a plea deal within the past several days.
Jackson’s case is being handled by the US Attorney’s
office in Washington DC. While no public announcement is expected today,
those with knowledge of the investigation believe the loose ends now
deal with Jackson’s wife, former Alderman Sandi Jackson, and whether or
not she is ultimately charged.
Under the terms of the deal Jackson signed, he pleads
guilty and his fate – as to jail time – would be in the hands of a
federal judge, not yet assigned.
