Rod Blagojevich

Federal prosecutors aren't alone in wanting a retrial after the jury deadlocked on all but one count at former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's corruption trial. Some jurors also want to see the impeached Democratic governor back in court and have expressed frustration that the panel of six women and six men could not agree on additional counts, including allegations that he tried to sell President Barack Obama's old senate seat. "I'm glad there is going to be (a retrial)," juror Cynthia Parker, 60, said outside her home in the Chicago suburb of Gurnee. "I don't feel it's finished." Parker said she joined most other jurors in voting to convict Blagojevich of the alleged Senate seat scheme. Several jurors have said they were just one vote shy of a conviction. Read more here:
