Another Blago Wiretap
The Sun-Times is reporting that the cell phone of Lon Monk, Blagojevich's first-term chief of staff and longtime friend, was tapped as part of the federal investigation into the governor. Monk was identified in court filings as "Lobbyist 1." The discovery was made as prosecutors seek to get some of the Blago Tapes released for the State House impeachment committee. We'll have a bit more on that ongoing struggle a bit later.
