Blagojevich Connected to Rezko in Hospital Subpoena
The Federal probe into Tony Rezko, is getting closer and closer to Governor Blagojevich.
Federal prosecutors have broadened their investigation of Gov. Rod Blagojevich’s administration, subpoenaing records of ties between his lobbyist friend and a hospital that got a favorable decision from a state board allegedly controlled by convicted influence peddler Antoin “Tony” Rezko.
The subpoena delivered to Provena Hospital two weeks ago sought information about the hospital’s relationship to John Wyma, a close friend of the governor, according to a person familiar with the investigation who spoke only on condition of anonymity because grand jury subpoenas are secret.

The Chicago Tribune, citing unnamed sources, reported in its Thursday edition that a federal subpoena also was delivered to the Illinois Road and Transportation Builders Association that named millionaire lobbyist William Cellini and was related to his involvement in a Blagojevich fundraiser. The newspaper said the head of the road builders group confirmed it received the subpoena but he would not discuss the details. The group and Cellini did not immediately return messages left by the AP.
How many Illinois Governors and politicians have to go to prison before the corruption in this state is no longer tolerated?
