CHICAGO (CBS 2) -- A source tells CBS 2 News Wednesday night that a team of federal agents believes it has the evidence needed to indict Governor Rod Blagojevich. Investigators believe they've established solid evidence of fraud and conspiracy.
WBBM's Political Editor Craig Dellimore Reports.
However, they are not the ones who make the decision to prosecute. It's up to U.S. Attorney Patrick Fitzgerald and the Justice Department in Washington.
Others have told CBS 2 that an indictment of Blagojevich is not imminent. No comment from the Justice Department.
Last week, CBS 2 reported that the IRS assigned three teams of investigators to the Blagojevich case. But the governor says he's confident he has not broken any laws or rules. He says he's been careful to file accurate tax returns.
