An attorney for former House Speaker Michael Madigan said Friday his team will need to review “millions and millions” of documents over the next several months before deciding on any pretrial motions to be filed in the bombshell racketeering case.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Amarjeet Bhachu told the judge his office had already turned over a “quite voluminous” batch of discovery materials to the defense, and that another large production would be made by the end of the month. Blakey agreed, setting the next status hearing for Aug. 2. Madigan’s appearance was waived for that hearing, as it was for Friday’s proceedings.alleging they conspired to participate an array of bribery and extortion schemes from 2011 to 2019, including a plot to steer payments from Commonwealth Edison to member of Madigan’s vast political operation in exchange for the speaker’s help with legislation in Springfield.
Both Madigan and McClain have pleaded not guilty. Their attorneys have accused prosecutors of trying to criminalize legal political actions such as job recommendations in a quest to bring down the once-powerful speaker.
