Convicted political fixer Antoin "Tony" Rezko, found guilty today on 16 counts of corruption "related to a kickback scheme for companies that do business with the state" of Illinois, has surrendered to authorities.
Rezko, who is scheduled for sentencing in September, surprised even his attorney by opting to begin serving his time immediately.
"I didn't choose that. Mr. Rezko chose if he was convicted to immediately start serving," said Joe Duffy, Rezko Defense Attorney. "That was just the desire he expressed to us, and it was his decision."
