Meantime, according to the Wall Street Journal, federal prosecutors in Washington, D.C., have expanded their investigation of the congressman, and are now also looking at his wife’s conduct.
WBBM Newsradio's Regine Schlesinger reports, according to the Wall Street Journal, sources familiar with the investigation said prosecutors are reviewing evidence Jackson's wife, Ald. Sandi Jackson (7th), might have been complicit in the misuse of campaign money to decorate their home.
The Journal reports prosecutors have made no decisions about pursuing charges against Ald. Jackson.
