Illinois House Minority Leader Tony McCombie has commented on the recent developments in the case of former Speaker Michael Madigan. Federal prosecutors have requested a 12.5-year prison sentence and a $1.5 million fine for Madigan, who was convicted earlier this year on charges including bribery, conspiracy, and wire fraud.
McCombie stated, “Mike Madigan’s fall from power is no surprise — it’s the bill coming due for decades of corruption. He betrayed the public trust, lined his pockets, and now faces justice. Illinois deserves better. It’s time to turn the page and end the era of crooked politics for good.”
Madigan's conviction marks a significant point in efforts to address political corruption within Illinois' government.
