Mike Madigan trial live updates: Ed Moody takes stand in ex-Illinois speaker trial

FBI Agent Scherrer returned to the stand on Tuesday.

He was the first witness to take the stand to finish Monday's testimony.

Jury learned about some of the meetings and dinners with Madigan which were found on McClain's phone.

A list of contacts in McClain's cellphone was also shown, including Edward Acevedo, Jay Doherty, Ed Moody, Frank Olivo, John Hooker, Juan Ochoa, Michael Madigan, Ray Nice, Victor Reyes and Mike Zalewski.

Scherrer said he searched other electronic devices in Ed Moody's computer and thumb drive. Adding that he was looking for any communication or work product between Ed Moody and ComEd.

When asked If he found any work being done by Ray Nice, Ed Moody, Frank Olivo or Mike Zalewski for either ComEd or Jay Doherty, the agent said "no."

Judge John Robert Blakey read a note from a juror asking about their schedule over the holidays.

The judge and the attorneys agreed to give the jury December 31st off.

The jury was seated at about 9:30 a.m.

Court was back in session on Tuesday at about 8:46 a.m.

Judge Blakey was on the bench. However, the jury had not been sent in.

Attorneys discussed explaining to the jury the legality behind campaign fundraising in connection with Former Alderman Daniel Solis' testimony.

Solis is expected to take the stand by Thursday.

The Madigan trial will extend into January, the judge said Monday.

The trial is running at least two weeks longer than expected, with an end date likely not coming before the middle of January.
