Today’s installment has our hapless defense lawyer asking about Juliano’s work product. Apparently, someone found some actual work in his office! But Juliano explains that, alas, someone had given it to him as a cover.
I mean, wouldn’t it just be easier to do the work than conspiring to make it look like you did actual state work?

But Stanley, a former Republican lawmaker from suburban Streamwood, was also hungry for state contracts, Juliano testified. Juliano said he walked into Fawell?s office one day and was told how Stanley had been lobbying for a contract to use mailings to publicize the state organ donor program.
“The Hog really wants that direct-mail contract ? he?s really bugging me about it,?? Juliano quoted Fawell as saying.
“When you say the Hog, Sir, who did he mean??? asked Assistant U.S. Attorney Patrick Collins, the top Operation Safe Road prosecutor.
