Jesse Jackson Jr. Reports to Prison—Again


Former Congressman Jesse Jackson Jr. is now officially in the custody of the Federal Prison Bureau. Yesterday, he tried to report early to the federal correctional facility in Butner, North Carolina, but was turned away. Elizabeth Brackett and her guests unravel what happened, and what the 48-year-old will face during his two-and-a-half year term. Joining us are Natasha Korecki, a Political Reporter for the Chicago Sun-Times, Patrick Cotter, a former Assistant U.S. Attorney and current partner at the law firm of Barnes & Thornburg, and Robert Starks, a professor at Northeastern Illinois University's Center for Inner City Studies who focuses on African American politics.
