Evidence Stolen From Office Of Blago’s Lawyer

Former Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D-IL)

At least one computer containing undercover recordings from the investigation of former Illinois governor Rod Blagojevich has been stolen from the offices of Blago’s lawyer, reports a Chicago news outlet.

The theft reportedly took place last night at the law offices of Sam Adam and his son, Sam Adam Jr. There are said to be no suspects.

It’s possible the theft could delay Blago’s trial, which is scheduled for June. He has been charged with seeking to sell Barack Obama’s Senate seat, among other transgressions.
