Regarding Rod Blagojevich and being sentenced to 14 years..?

anyone else think he will kill himself before he reports in to serve his sentence? I don't know why I get a strong feeling he will... I'm not trolling.

Update:

Hitler was such man my friend and he shot himself...

    The thought also crossed my mind - 14 years with only 15% off for good behavior is a tough option at his age - I suspect that he may consider suicide a reasonable option. If he goes to prison then he will have to endure the humiliation and also subject his family to visiting him in prison. I should think his financial situation is pretty dire as well. Lets face it, his life is totally ruined with no real hope of anything to look forward to even when he does come out. I think he should be taken into custody straight away as I think there is a strong possibility that he will commit suicide. Personally I think his sentence was too harsh - I would have given him 8 years - anything over 10 was simply excessive.

    He grow to be convicted on 17 of 20 counts.He could have have been given so plenty extra,i think of he has to do 12 of those years.not in basic terms did he attempt to sell a senate yet he lied to the FBI.(not a solid thought and a serious crime) to boot to all that he grow to be grantef a 2d trial on the taxpayers price.i don't have the numbers on the cost regardless of the incontrovertible fact that it grow to be not much less high priced.His predecessor ex-governor George Ryan is likewise serving a 6&a million/2 3 hundred and sixty 5 days sentence.Corrupt poltics in Illinois has been the norm for years here.So i don't think of his sentence grow to be to harsh.He grow to be hamming it up the full time mutually as he grow to be looking forward to his trial by applying occurring talk shows and reallity shows like the apprentice.And to actual it off he getd to head to three Federal penal complex in Colorado which I assure is almost a rustic club while in comparison with the likes of Menard or Statesville penal complex.

    The deal with psychopaths like Blagojevich is that they have ONLY self interest... and those people don't kill themselves generally.
