Blago sentencing could be delayed

September 8, 2011 (CHICAGO)

Judge James Zagel is scheduled to sentence Blagojevich on October 6. But The Chicago Sun-Times reports that Zagel is also scheduled to preside over the trial of William Cellini beginning October 3.

The Cellini trial involves pay-to-play politics linked to Blagojevich.

In June, a jury convicted the former governor on corruption charges.
