Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich – who tried to “sell” President Obama’s Senate seat – was found guilty on 17 counts against him.

He appeared on ‘The Apprentice’ and his wife was on ‘I’m Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here’ to try to repair their image, but obviously the jurors don’t watch Reality TV. 

A federal jury today convicted former Gov. Rod Blagojevich of corruption.
Blogojevich showed no reaction as the jury found him guilty on 17 of 20 counts against him. The jury deadlocked on two counts and found him not guilty of one count.
After the verdicts were read, the former governor sat back in his chair with his lips pursed and looked toward his wife Patti and whispered, “I love you.”
As the first guilty verdict was announced, Patti Blagojevich slumped into the arms of her brother, who stroked her head. Before the verdict was even read, she had started crying. She kept shaking her head “no” as the jurors left the courtroom.
