Rod Blagojevich adds another lawyer to his defense team 

Share 

Ousted Gov. Rod Blagojevich already has a sizable team of criminal defense attorneys working on his political corruption case.

Now, Chicago attorney Jay Edelson has been brought in to fight civil lawsuits being filed against Blagojevich.

In a telephone interview Tuesday, Edelson said he's taking the case free of charge because Blagojevich is facing serious legal issues and needs the help.
