‘ComEd 4’ Found Guilty. Here’s How Their Corruption Affected Your Rates
All four defendants in the “ComEd Four” trial have been found guilty on corruption charges, including a nearly decade-long scheme to bribe former Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan in exchange for legislation favorable to the utility giant. When the trial began in March, WBEZ politics reporter Dave McKinney explained why it was Illinois’ biggest corruption trial in over a decade and how the scheme affected anyone who gets an electricity bill.
