137 madigan guilty
About time! Michael Madigan found guilty on ten counts of corruption in federal court. This is the guy so instrumental in screwing up the State of Illinois as House speaker over thirty-six years.
Madigan had made laws that would benefit his law firm by generating work for his law firm. It seems like he had his hand in other things also.

The question is this, will Illinois ever get rid of these career politicians that keep screwing up the state?
